    I really love these Weshape videos but I had a very unpleasant with your company. I signed up for a one-year discount subscription in December but requested a cancellation after experiencing serious health issues after trying to do the test. After not getting a refund in one month I sent an email to customer service. I have just received an email saying that I will not get my $99.00 back because I did not EXPLICITLY REQUESTED a refund when I requested the cancellation.

    @@annettefournier9655 I have found that certain simple stretches can cause pain - hip bursitis, upper back slight soreness that causes my thumb on that side to go numb. So I eliminate them. It’s been interesting to see what has caused them. Of course it’s different for everyone. But trial and error. Bursitis is caused by something - I had “ tennis elbow “ for years - except it was really “ lifting diaper pail elbow “ - eventually went away after 12 years of diapers, but took years. Do you know what caused your bursitis - such as certain repetitive movements?

I spend 1 mile on the treadmill, at level 4 with half the mile at the largest incline. Squats with a 30-50 lb weights, plus curls with 20-25 pound weights.

    You can always get cortisone shots. A really great help for pain. I have Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Tendonitis. Worked with physio when it started but no improvement. The pain is pretty minor, can’t complain. But if it got worse and interfered with my ADL’s, I would definitely consider cortisone shots. My brother gets cortisone shots - a year after surgery on his rotator cuff, he still has pain. The shots make all the difference in his life.

    I am over 70 and my favourite excise is to squat place my bottom on the sofa then swing my legs up and over on to the sofa . Then grip my mug of tea drink it then pass out for an hour 😂
