In today's video, I demonstrate how to do the Squat exercise - one of the exercises in my book, Exercise for Better Bones (on Amazon!). (amzn.to/3uFqLQt)

Thank you for this demonstration! I love how you explain each part of the exercise, the breathing, and placement. I'm looking forward to doing these correctly now!

Great comments! Love the thought put into the exercise!

Great advise! Thank you!

Thank you again, I meant to say you aren't the first PT to nag me to do more squats (seem to be my nemesis) but you were the first to inform me they would strengthen my lower spine, now you're talking👄 and I'm listening better!!

Great demonstration. Do you have videos as to what one should do during an entire week? How many days of cardio vs strength training?

Thank you. You're a good trainer.😊

Thank you Margaret. Can you comment on whether it’s recommended to bend lower than the height of the chair?

Hi Margaret! So happy to have found your page. Can you tell me where you purchased your piece of squat equipment from. It would help me with my squats. Thank you.

Excellent thank you (from Singapore ! )

Welcome!

I usually wear a us size 9 but followed instructions and got size 8 last year. They were a little short - my toe touched the end but I did not have time to exchange so I used them. They were fine but I just ordered the wine color in 8-1/2. My measurement was 9-3/4 inches so seems odd. But I liked the shoes. We hiked in 11 National parks last year. Going to Palo Duro State Park in October.

Thank you for this video…I am 82 and rather do these exercises in my home Than in groups

Beautiful))

Thank you before covid i was able to get out of an armchair without touchibg the arms. This looks good

doing this route with a chair opposite face placed had made maaaaaa day,

Can you do squats with knee problems and balance problems? Is squats beneficial when you can only do 1 or 2 squats?

I could have sworn I heard you say no knees in front of the feet. Yet, that is exactly what I see on you from the side view. Is it just a reduction in that stance that we need? thanks!!

Hi! I am a 69 yr. old male diagnosed with piriformis syndrome 8 yrs. ago. I did the stretches recommended and it seems I have highly improved from it but it seemed that it gave me lower back pains. Will these exercises affect benefit my piriformis syndrome and the resulting lower back pain? Thank you.

Hello! I am 69 and I have kyphosis and scoliosis . Please help me out with exercises to pull me up and walk straight as I used to do before. Thank you!

Where did you get those "table" chairs (the one with the purple on top, and the other with the green glass on it)

I have some pain in my knees. Does that mean I am doing the squat incorrectly?

Hello how are you doing?

Thank you Margaret for all your videos, but I have one question- how get so beautiful arms as yours are and get rid of sagging skin on my arms… Help please. I know that I had to exercise long time ago and not let my arms to get to the condition they are now 😊

I regularly do upper body and arm strengthening.

So painful for older folk. Age, old injuries, arthritis. That's why we start pushing ourselves up with our arms. Very frustrating.
