    I know that some people are not happy with you talking. I love it. I have a nephew who is blind, and I am encouraging him to try your programs. He is wheelchair bound suffering from Ataxia and is only in his mid 30's. I let you talk without being bothered because I know what exercise is next and I just start so I can do extra reps. It is so important that you talk to encourage people who have unbelievable challenges in their life that many people have no idea how hard their life is!

    Hi Jules, while I've been doing stretching it feels like I will turn into Jello if I don't start moving again! So I did this one and it really felt good to use some of my muscles again. I can't believe how tired I've become in just the few days I havent exercised. I see my doctor later today and am hoping for a green light on movement even though I still have a tiny bit of discomfort. Thanks Jules!

      I know what you mean...I feel the same way if I haven't been able to exercise. The gentle seated workouts will also work well if your doctor thinks you need to have more rest. The gentle ones are more about working on range of motion and getting in some light exercise. I hope today went well.

    Question for you Jules: I am an 80-year-old guy and love the challenge of this. Is every other way about right for this routine no matter what else one is doing?

    • @ImprovedHealth
      @ImprovedHealth  Месяц назад

      Hi! I just want to make sure I understand your question, do you mean, 'is every other day about right'? If so, you can do this every day if you wish. To see the most benefits, my suggestion is to pick different workouts throughout the week since each workout is slightly different and you'll target different muscles. Just so you know, I have a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts

Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) in both seated and standing workouts, and categorize them all into the playlists. Just look for 'playlists' on the main page and scroll down to where you see the seated options. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
      I now upload all new seated workouts to the new channel.
      Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com
      I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out.

    • @ImprovedHealth
      @ImprovedHealth  Год назад +2

      Hi Iris, it's Jules here. I read all of the comments on my channel. Don't worry about not being able to point your toes. Just do a heel tap or do the best with what you can do. You're moving and being physically active and doing the workout to the best of your abilities, which is great. You'll still definitely benefit from the workout whether you do a toe or heel tap:)

I just finished day 2 , but only see it up to day 5 for the chair exercises, will you have more of them later. I do them from my tv and go to my phone to comment. Would love to continue them after day 5 is done.

      Welcome to my channel, Barbara! Just so you know, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate and both seated and standing). I categorize the workouts into playlists on the channel as well as on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I actually have lots of seated workouts in the playlists so you'll likely find lots more which would be suitable. The gentle workouts are designed mostly for range of motion, flexibility with some strength & minimal cardio. The beginner ones are a step up with more cardio and strength exercises. The intermediate workouts likely have too much movement for your back so you might want to stick with the beginner level workouts. I also create gentle standing workouts which should be fine for your back and breathing since they are designed to be gentle movements. After you get through more of the workouts, let me know if you feel something is missing:)

    Hi Jules. Love your programs which I use with my fellow residents in my retirement village and present at a Day Centre for Seniors, many with early dementia. (I like your Dementia videos especially for this group). I have a problem at the Day Centre though - the equipment available does not include WiFi and it's a bit of a problem having to take my laptop, dongle, speakers, cords etc with me. Is it possible to get your videos on CDs or even in a form that I can download onto a memory stick? Happy to pay for these of course.
    I'm 83yrs, I live in Sydney, Australia. I started doing You Tube exercise videos when we were first locked down with Covid - and I've never gone back to my previous exercise classes. Many friends in my village were in the same situation so we get together to do your programs now - doing it together is more motivating.
    Thank you
    Bev

      It can be normal to feel a little bit of soreness if you're new to certain exercises but hopefully it doesn't last long. If you ever feel it's too much when you're doing it, you can do a little bit less with the reps until you get used to the workouts:)
