Almost 69, I still have to work for my living, I clean houses and a friend's garden, I think this help me to stay in shape.

Menopause causes massive muscle atrophy if you are not someone who works out. I lost the ability to squat and stand straight up from squatting, without having to pull myself up, in a matter of months. It's shocking how quick it happens.

What a lovely instructor. Thank u 🇨🇦

Very useful info. I thought I was the only one. Love this channel ❤ thanks doc

I am over 80 when I had breast cancer and radiation last April thru the end of May. afterward my hip began to hurt and I’ve gone to chiropractors and hasn’t helped. Now I have to go down the stairs sideways holding onto the railing and am all out of breath.

Mr. Will, This video helps explain what’s been happening with my knees. Your tips and recommendations have made me more aware of how I sit , stand, and walk and I’ve been using many of the exercises feeling so much better and stronger. Thank you so much for this information. 😊

Thank you Mr. H I appreciate your dedication to posting so many helpful videos. Fifty years old comes so quickly 😩🇺🇸

At 53 I had many of these symptoms. I thought it was from a bad back and hip. It turned out I had to have a stent put in my leg. The Dr said both arteries were completely blocked and I had a femoral to femoral bypass.

Sounds like it might be sciatic pain. Acupuncture helps all kinds of pain including sciatica, and should always be done before any surgery. Might not need surgery. I’m 78 and have no joint pains of any kind despite diagnosed with lumbar arthritis, bone spurs and severe degenerative discs for decades! No surgeries. I do a weekly gentle stretching and yoga class and occasional stretches and strengtheners at home during the week and it keeps me strong and painfree. Good luck. ❤

Thank you

Hi Will.....Id really like to ask you what you think of rebounding for muscle gain and heart health and fitness,health ?

I've been doing all that for the past ten years.😮

Will, I’ve been wondering whether that laying-down glute strengthening exercise is the same as the standing one where you extend your leg sideways and slightly behind you leading with the heel? Are they interchangeable?

Hi Will…outstanding work that clearly explains the issues and adroitly recommends your video library as a ‘go to’ source for further research to correct the weak leg problem…am grateful for your emphasis on an early warning awareness of the sometimes imperceptible decline of physical ability imperiling the maintenance of living an independent life…Will,your chosen career exemplifies a fundamental tenet of Stoicism:the only thing truly good is virtue…congratulations on 200k subscribers…❤️

@Harlow what would be the muscle to improve for oldies especially old ladies who walk with entire weight on one leg and the entire weight on the other leg with a swaying motion from left to right. I don't know if I have been able to explain but the walk is like one leg has become shorter and the person is swaying from left to right in a half inverted D. Would be grateful if you could suggest an exercise for it Thank You

Oh we know! Isn't that something, who knew you'd have to be in top shape just to tackle daily living, darndest thing!

I'm tired of leg cramps all night,after work

My 80 year old mother woke up one morning with leg weakness. Front of her upper leg and calf muscle. She’s had it now for 2 days. Doesn’t seem like it would be muscle fatigue as she wasn’t exerting herself. Ideas?

Tks 👍🏻💪🏻

Where’s the exercise video for the trendelenberg gate please. I’ve never been told I have that but that’s the way I walk and it’s my right hip that’s affected. No it’s not fun to watch! I do call it my pimp walk though. I really want to stop it if you have the exercise to help it. I do like your tips and exercises.

I am 66 years old and I am Diabetic and I have, around a year ago began to develop an imbalance problem whilst walking. I even feel, like I am going to fall whilst at home. and have done several times. I have a hole in my head, which won't heal, could this be a sign of "Brain Tumor" or something less worrying? I went sometime last year, for a "Biopsy" to take a piece of flesh from my scalp, but I have recently moved, and have not received my results yet. Should I be worried about this?

Hey will.. i have arthritis in my lower back, im 55 ( young 55) 😅 i keep myself really active. Can you recommend the best pain relief for this? I live in the UK ❤

Acupuncture helps get rid of pain. But to get rid of the Problem, a gentle yoga class will strengthen almost all of the muscles and joints in the body over time.

Also how do we work on fixing these problems

When watching people out on the street, just be careful not to confuse that gait with when a woman is intentionally swaying her hips to draw attention to them. Women will do this sometimes. I used to sway my hips for short periods of walking just to make a certain fabric in my skirt/pants flow the way I wanted it to or to stretch my tight external obliques and outer hips and even lower back sometimes. It felt good. The exaggerated step allowed me to stretch without having to stop. I was perfectly able to keep my hips stable. My guess is there will be signs that the person looks strong enough to be stable but is still swaying. She'll likely look like she has good balance. Then you know she's stretching or highlighting her outfit or the shape of her hips... or something I haven't thought of 'cause I never did it for that reason.

❤❤

Let me guess,you fall or can't walk much ....

Bullshit !!! Maybe​ over 80!

Did lumbar microscopic dicectomy 5 months ago, i had little pain back 2 weeks ago, i go back to doctor, he advice me to do physical therapy. I got little relax. After one week again, i got again seviour pain in my right leg toeards to feet. I gone through a new MRI, dr. Said there is a new herniation in the same disc. As per doctor advice i took fully rest at home 2 months with only little walk inside at home after surgery,. I was started work only after 2 moth as per Doctor instruction. One thing now understand. Dont belive them doctor. They are not addressing after the surgery regarding the disc portion what is inside body. They just remove the disc wich is conpressing on the nurve. If patients if come back with re herniation, they will start talk about another surgery. It call fusion. I wish to say all the people who suffer with back pain. Dont go surgery, dont belive doctors. They technology is broken.
