That hip rotation exercise added 40 yards to my golf drive after just a few days.
I'm over 50 with multiple sclerosis. Your channel helps me keep going. Due to MS, I've seen many physio therapists over the years. Your routines do more for my mobility and independence than most advice that I have received over the years. Thanks
I’m 77, and taught skiing for many years and continued skiing and enjoying it enormously! Then within two months in early winter I fell twice, breaking the same foot. First required a boot to wear, but the second requires some metal plates and PT. No skiing that winter😭😭!
The following fall season, mu husband was diagnosed with heart issues. So neither of us got to ski, as I really needed to monitor him.
Living in an apartment on the second & third floor turned me into a lazy, depressed old lady, taking my stability, strength and overall mobility too far away from me, only increasing all issues listed!
When I ran across your vlog, it gave me hope and enough encouragement to get me to the Senior classes at the YMCA! But,not to worry! I check your “station” every day and love all that you offer! Today, the lower back/hips thing really got my attention, because every morning I am just what you described! And I’ll be in bed doing that one both morning and night! Thank you from me and all the seniors you’re helping!
And … I have a friend who is has limited & is determined to carry on as best she can. So I sent her your vlog and she’s hopefully, going to sign on!
Thank you ever so much for your brilliant advice! Crack On!
Thank you for this, Will. Do you have 3 or 4 exercises you would recommend for a 75+ year old woman in generally good health, with little arthritis, but in not in good conditioning, that would be good to help moving again?
75 you're doing well, stay focused on your posture doing all properly that in itself is hard work, I'm 63 and swing at the park, side to side too, it helps with balance and hips, you'll notice strenght swinging for sure, never mind it might look weird it's not like you're a man anyway just don't talk any young person's ear off neither of you are there for that, love from Montreal!❤🎉
@@joseenoel8093yes, swinging is great exercise. 69 & been doing it for yrs😅
Glad you're channel is receiving so much attention. You're doing a nice job.❤❤❤
Hello Will,
I am 62 1/2 years old and I am really benefiting from these exercises. I’ve always had mobility issues, I.., Back surgery foot surgery falls, etc. this is really important that I do these so that I can continue being mobileagain thank you so much. Take care.
I just pre-ordered your extended version book. Thanks for your passionate work to help us all as we age, Will.
❤ the three tips, always nice to see it in the inbox every Friday and always interesting.
I do these squats holding onto the footboard of my bed.
I loved all of your stretches. I did all of them along with you. I thank you for completing the stretches. It has helped to keep me calm and relaxed. No rush. Thank you soooo much
So pleased to hear you were able to do them along with me and that you found them beneficial! Keep up the great work :)
Great demonstration Will
Thanks so much for these easy and safe exercises ❤
You're most welcome😃
Here's one for you, I have used Sarah Key ( Australian physio) Back Block both the wooden and plastic ones for years decompression for the spine and I use one on long journeys in the car etc it keeps you sat upright and I have a problem back with two lower back prolapse discs which I've had over 30 years
Thank you! Live your videos. Love the staff(broom handle) exercise. I walk with an Indian walking stick. Its easier to walk straight then a cane.
Good Luck with your new book, Will! Thank you for these great exercises!
Thank you so much for your well wishes! I'm so pleased to hear you liked the exercises 😃
I’m going to try these mobility moves,
I hope they prove helpful!
Thank you for the clear instructions and demonstrations. Grateful for your knowledge. Makes a big impact on my life.
So pleased to hear you've found my work helpful! I'm wishing you all the best :)
I’ve been doing Pilates for years, on and off, for lower back pain, mostly concentrated on my glutes. I do find if I neglect my stretches and exercises I get symptoms of sciatica and hip stiffness.
The all in one glute strengthener and resistance band exercises you showed recently are excellent, the broom squat I have just done and wow, that feels good.
Thanks for your output, it’s very much appreciated.
So pleased to hear you found these movements helpful! Keep up all the great work you're doing to keep yourself healthy and active 😃
Thank you Will for this lovely presentation of mobility exercises for seniors From today I will incorporate all 3 exercises in my daily exercise regime One small request to you if possible please upload a video of exercises for tendonitis as you explain everything in a very clear way
Thanks, Will! I am less mobile and visualise a lot… ❤
Thank you for all the good excercises! Maybe you could make an item on hands and wrists too?
Hi Will, Thank you so much for all the Exercises you share with us.
It's my pleasure to share!
Thankyou for sharing doctor.🎉
Is it a reasonable guess that your desk sitting back pain is the quadratus lumboris (sorry for spelling). Thanks for all of your great videos.
Would you consider some videos for the frail elderly - people over 80 or so who can only start off with very small movements? My mother will never do a deep squat again.
I love all of your excercises and know they are very beneficial because I tried as you were presenting ❤
Great to hear you were able to try them along with me!
Question for Will or anyone who cares to answer: for the deep squat, if I have knee articular arthritis and history of meniscus tears, should I do this? At present getting in, and especially maintaining the deepest position causes pain. But pain is not always an indication of damage, or is it? In other words is there any way that simply getting into this position, which intuitively feels good for the rest of me (hips, low back), could actually damage my knees or is it simply an issue of getting used to the sensation and the body will acclimatize and adapt in a positive way? Of course you can’t actually give me personal medical advice and I would never hold you to that. But in general, what is your sense of this, from your undoubtedly large experience with older arthritic knees (I’m 57, about 20 kilos overweight, but fairly strong and fit, except for my damn knees. I keep hearing how the deep squat is so essential and beneficial. Please advise to the best of your abilities. Anyone’s personal experience in this regard is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Try pointing your toes out and widening your stance a bit. My knees refused to do a squat and I had to start like that and wasn't getting very deep. My understanding is that I needed to build up the muscles around my knees and after about 6 months of regular strength training I can say that only one knee hurts now and only occasionally. I'm also able to drop into a full squat with toes forward and in fact one of my exercises is to do squats with a 40lb dumbbell. Hope you're able to get where you want to be!
Hello Sir, Really Nice Watching Your Video. It Helped Reduce Pain.
So pleased to hear it helped!
Thank you very much for your mobility exercises very helpful.
Very good Will you are amazing!
Thanks for these Will I will be incorporating all of these into my exercise regime. I am especially curious to see what the broom stick squat will do foe me. 🇨🇦
Another awesome video Will! The hip stretch felt amazing!
So pleased to hear that!
Can't find the 3 tip Friday email

Great video as always! Please consider a new hand strength video soon (the one on the channel is 7 months old, but still relevant). Maybe examining 'classic' tools (light dumbbell, sticky 'eggs', hand gripper, finger stretcher, grip doughnut), IF they help or advice to avoid them if not!
Thank you for your comment! I have added your suggestion to my list of future video recommendations☺
Thank you for the great tips I’m certainly going to try them!
Great to hear you'll be putting them to good use!
I’m defo going to try these so easy before getting up and easy when going to bed thanks Will 👏👏
Absolutely! I hope they prove helpful😃
Fantastic
Nice demos.
For squats instead of sticks what is the difference if we do holding a chair or a door post?
Appreciate your response.
Thank you Will
Thank you Will
God bless you always ❤❤
You're very welcome!
Hey good evening, my comment is a question relly, I have a bad knee and is so painful and it is already caused my leg to bend. What can I do to correct it?
Another great video Will.... thankyou...
You're very welcome 😃
Great advice thanks 😊
You're welcome!
I have serious pain when I sit longer than 5 minutes: I feel swelling in my right butt and back of hip firing up; and also when I make transitional movements, getting in and out of car, and chair. What exercises will help? No problem walking and standing, which does not seem to match stenosis.
Signed up for 3 tip Friday...nothing yet...
So did I! No tips yet either!
Hello! Sorry to hear that. Please email hello@ht-physio.co.uk with your email address and we will make sure you are on the list.
Could you please advise adductor stretches . I have suffered from slip disc and nerve compression. Now am better . But , my leg muscles are weak . Can’t sit down . If I do need lotsa support to get up .
Could you please advise adductor stretching which I can do on bed or standing with no one’s help .
You should mention the pelvic tilt with the squat and contract abs. Most stick their butt out .

So pleased to hear they worked for you!
Count me in
G'day, how 'bout psoas muscle being loser? Stronger? Working and happy? Thanks enjoy the pool everyone!
Excellent 👌
Thank you!
Can it be done by 80+3
Nice exercise!
Great to hear that!
What makes this different from regular squats without a stick?
the stick
I think the stick helps with balance and keeps you from falling back.
@@beautifulveneer Makes sense
Nice 👍👍
Out to charity shop tomorrow to get a walking stick for squats.
Friend will you please recommend some good exercises for a 70 year old person
The 3rd exercise hurts my lower back really bad, to the point where I can only do each side one time, and hold it for no longer than 3 seconds, especially in the morning.
Same, but I like the rest of them
I threw my foam roller away due to pain when using it
💖❤️🙏💖❤️
Qi Gong is far, far better
