Will, your leg exercises help me walk better after having had three leg surgeries, sciatica with spinal surgery, and Guillain-Barré syndrome. You explain things so well, and I really understand what the problems are and can address them, especially when it comes to stiff, locked hips. Your explanation of why we tend to lean forward while walking was a revelation. I am 70 by the way. You are a treasure!
Thanks Will!!!
Another wonderful video that demonstrates the proper use of body parts to improve walking and mobility❤
Love your 3 tips on Friday too!!!
Have a great weekend 😊
So pleased to hear my videos and mail outs have been useful! I hope you had a great weekend too :)
I just bought your book. I am doing the knee exercises and adding these skateboards. Thank you.
Thank you for purchasing my book! I hope you find the exercises beneficial!
Well! I am so pleased with myself. Have been doing Will's exercises for a few weeks now especially the knee and help with walking. Today l have walked for a whole hour, something lve not managed for a long time. And...not feeling any discomfort 6 hours later. Chuffed to bits. Hopefully another walk tomorrow.
I didn't realize just how much I need these exercises. They will become part of my daily exercises and stretches.
Thank you, Mr. Will, thank you.
You're very welcome!
Oh my gosh! I have almost no dorsiflexion in my right foot and very little in my left! Plenty of plantar flexion in both. In march of this year, I started to stumble a lot. Since then I've taken to using a cane because I have become unstable when I walk, I shuffle my feet. I walk stiff, swaying from side to side. I know I'm doing it, but I can't seem to stop/fix it. Also I'm moving slow, I can't seem to make myself move faster. I'm a 61 year old female with bad knees that I take tylenol (paracetamol) twice a day. I found this channel in march, when searching about moving better after 50. My normal semi-annual check up is in July, so I'm saving these videos to show my doctor and discuss some of these exercises. Great channel, by the way! ❤😁👍
I'm sorry to hear that you've been having some difficulties which have been causing you to stumble. I hope my channel can provide a resource to help following your doctor's appointment :)
This couldn’t have come at a better time as I’m 1 week out of my walking boot and beginning to rehab back to normal walking. Everything changed, back muscles,glutes, balance, range of walking vision, ankle and toe mobility. I’m definitely putting these exercises into practice.
Oh yes ... all parts of legs + hips buzzing with circulation = feels good! - annoyingly, I realised this week(whilst walking daily 30+min circuit with my son) how I have to b more aware of my walking movements/feet placement than I needed to b when I was younger... I blame it on the broken/uneven pathways(contributes, I'm sure) ... but it's definitely a good idea to keep muscles in legs strong. Thanks for this.
You are so good in your explanations. Thank you for that .
Thank you so much!
Excellent presentation, to the point, clear instructions. Professional & no fluff. Thx so much.
Very happy to be of service!
Thank you I really need this tips for walking
I hope they prove beneficial!
Brilliant video Will as always. I'm watching them all and then making my mind up which to include in daily routine for my right knee arthritis. Really enjoying your channel. 👍
So pleased you enjoyed my video - great to hear you're able to incorporate the exercises into a daily routine!
love all your videos so helpful and safe . thank you soooooo much
Very happy to be of help!
WE APPRECIATE YOUR PRECIOUS KNOWLEDGE AND TIME HELPING PEOPLE ❤
I'm very happy to be able to share my work with others!
As usual very helpful and practical. Thanks again Will
I have ankle pain the comes and goes. Walking distance is not doable and I used to do 3 miles a day when I had dogs. Because of intermittent left knee pain from old injury and both ankles sprained a couple of time, especially the left ankle, It can immobilize me and steps can be hard but I push my way through. The more stairs I climb, it seems to help. I have been doing an exercise you showed about a week ago concerning standing on your toes, facing a wall or chair and going as high as you can and holding to feel some burn in the calf muscles. It is helping me. I could barely lift my heels and now I can get close to 2 inches of lift. My big toe on my right foot is stiff as a board and the joint is enlarged. I cannot bent my toe up with muscles nor using fingers to lift it to extend it. I just wanted to let you know that the toe raises are helping me and adding these 4 exercises to the toe raises is going to become a daily routine. Walking is vital. Inclines can be hard to navigate with ankle pain. Thank you. If I do not improve, I will seek out a specialist.
I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles with walking and the pain you're experiencing. I'm so pleased the toe raises are helping and I hope these further exercises can help to rebuild your walking! I'm wishing you all the best :)
@@HT-Physio Thank you, If it does, I will comment again. So far, it seems to be helping. I just have to make the habit of doing it when standing about not doing anything.
Thank you, Will. Love these.
So pleased you like them!
Great video. Thank you again. Love that you explain the exercise well and the benefits from doing them. One question I have is that due to a neurological condition I cannot lift my leg very high on one leg and cannot move my toes. I am hoping that doing the exercise for the big toe and also the other toes may help, as well as practicing the skateboard exercise, even if I cannot perform it very well, or for too long. If you have exercises to help people who have some kind of neurological condition to get some movement back that would be awesome 😊.
Was a little peeved that very soon after purchasing your book you brought out an extended version.
Thanks for your effort.
My pleasure!
Please help how do I get the 3 tip Friday? Loving the exercise! I keep falling. 😢 the toe, ankle, knee hip !! My start ! Thank you Will ❤
Hi there - I'm sorry to hear you've been falling recently - I hope my videos and mail outs can offer some support to prevent further falls. You can sign up for my 3 tip Friday using the following link ht-physio.co.uk/3-tip-friday/
Thank u so much. I totally need exactly this workout. My left big toe hurts. Ankles r stiff. Knee pain comes & goes. And hip flexors r very tight. Gives me upper. Middle & lower back pain. Shoulders & right wrist hurt also. I’m a sedentary wreck. I try to do 5 k steps It’s difficult. And I can hardly move afterwards.
This has been a tremendous help to me. Thank you so much. I have bought your book such a great help.
Thank you for purchasing my book, I hope you've found it packed with interesting information! I'm so pleased my work has been of help :)
An exercise to help with the itbpain
Useful
Great to hear!
My joints hurts all the time and I exercise too . :(
Will, what about if you DO have meniscus tears (in both knees)?
Hi PT Will, I had my L4 and L5 surgery 4 months ago and can I do the skateboard exercise 🤔. Thank you and have a nice day!
I like the exercises
Great to hear!
I've had bunion surgery on both feet. Are there any adjustments to the manual lifting if the toes? Thanks so much
I had miniscus surgery in 2000 40% of miniscus was removed now I have started knee locking problem I cannot stand or walk more than 5 minutes continuously please tell me what type of exercises I do regularly
Hi Will I have advanced arthritis in my left big toe so can't pull toe up like you show in your video, is there any thing else I could do as its very stiff
You can do a lot of these movements in a rocking chair🤣
💖❤️🙏❤️💖
Hard to do when got fucked up kneex😊
While stroking the cat stroke dogx😊👍
We from NZ can get your book on Amazon?
I have put a daily program together using your exercises. What I was wondering is why in this video you say do the exercise a few times a day… example the calf stretch and in an other video “The Best Way to Improve Flexibility” you say leave 48 hours between the exercises. I’ve just ordered your book so maybe I will find the answer in it. Thanks.
Thanks for the hip thing!
Thank you Will for another lovely video for improving walking I have sighned in your 3 friday tips which also provides us lots of information for improving our health
Thank you for subscribing to my Friday mail outs - I'm so pleased to hear they've been helpful :)
3rd grade Miniscus tear can do this and what should we take care of
The hip exercise was great.
So pleased you liked it!
please people do not do the ankle raises. My bones in front of foot and shines have never been the same since doing raises for 6 weeks.
Hello, you probably have shin splints from doing too many ankle raises (and/or doing them too fast). Shin splints aren't fatal (Google them) and they will go away eventually. Try performing less ankle raises WHEN you feel better, and more slowly, too.😸
