    I have a recovering sprained ankle and I miss doing my daily workouts as the doctor suggested I get full rest. I was feeling pretty low when I found out about this video and started following the coach's instructions straightaway (as I was already sitting in my chair). I am covered in sweat right now and this feels amazing! Thanks a lot for uploading this video!

  • @niekvandenberg205

    This chair was fairly easy to put together, the instructions were clear and I was about to follow along with no issues at all. It took me about 20 minutes to assemble. kzread.infoUgkx5hPALGI87E991DRmXev8PUFJGrrRcONS I did stuff the back of the chair with a pillow so it wouldn’t be so hollow after taking all the pieces out but that’s just a personal preference. I also added a pillow for lumbar support because although this is a great chair and is comfortable, it’s not necessarily the best if you’re sitting 10+ hrs a day wfh but in all honesty for the price, I didn’t mind at all. It looks great in my space and easily adjusts the height when needed.

    I deal with anxiety unfortunately and when I would do aerobics for beginners, they were still a little much for me, i know my body is in need of very low impact stretching and moving.. Something where its not getting my heart going but instead circulation and burning effect on my body.. Wow what a perfect workout in 5 minutes! Towards the end I was still ready for more and my body feels warmer, great curculation was given and my heart wasnt burdened, thank you Ms.! 😊 And thank you Jesus for allowing me to find her. 🙏🏼

    So glad to find this workout. I have arthritis in my feet, knees, hips, and spine among other places. I have several workout videos and DVDs that I have to modify to the point that you wouldn't know it was the same workout. But with the exception of the shoulder I had surgery on 3 months before COVID (so physiotherapy was closed just after I started so the shoulder will never be normal) I don't have to modify this. So glad to find it. See you in 2 days!
