TRANSFORM Your SKIN IN 4 DAYS : kzread.info/dash/bejne/iZmMrrJpXZaam9o.htmlsi=QSZd7c8gTVGfHSNz

I'm 5'3" tall and 70 years old. I can deadlift 150 pounds. I do water walking for 45 minutes per day because I love it and it helps me maintain my weight. But then I do rebounding exercises (using a mini-trampoline), ballet barre (at my kitchen counter), and yoga to "oil up the joints," move lymph, and hang on to mobility. Frailty = weak muscles + stiff joints. I'm working on a full Asian squat (I can only do it while assisted - i.e., hanging onto a bar, or as a wall sit at the moment, but I'm getting there!). Finally, twice a week, I pick up really heavy stuff (or push it in a sled push or pull) with a personal trainer to make sure I use good form and don't injure myself. I had a friend who said, "Sheesh, it's not worth it!" I've conquered my diabetes, lost over 200 pounds, and gained years of life. I can guarantee that it is 100% worth it!

Thank you Dr Rajani. I am a vet and found I wasn't able to bounce back up after examining a dog on the floor. I read a testimony from an elderly woman that she did 35 squats in the bathroom while brushing her teeth twice a day to strengthen her legs so I tried it. Within a week my leg strength was noticeably improved. She emphasized pushing your butt out for proper form to not hurt your back or knees. I will add some weights to improve bone strength per your advice. Thank you again! Anna

Great video and the scenery is just beautiful. You are right about form…if you are lifting something you need to squat properly or you are goi g to hurt your back for sure. All these exercises are needed for everyday life. How many times do you have to lift something from the floor then place it on a shelf over your head. Instead of squatting everyone just bends over. Once you learn these movements you never bend over again. Well of course unless you understand to move your leg out in a ballet position if it is something small and light. 😄 love the beach! Thanks for the scenery. 🙏🏻😊❤️

Weight lifting is the fountain of youth, as is sprinting. I compete as a professional bodybuilder (natural) and noticed right way that everyone who competes looks a solid 10 years younger than their age due to their commitment to exercise. The people in their 40's and 50's actually look the best. I have been training for 17 years non stop and it has helped me retain youthfulness of skin, muscles, bones and posture. I encourage everyone to lift weights, doesn't need to be heavy just needs to be consistent.

I'm sold gonna work out, really good speech=P

I'm 59 and started on Tamoxifen at 48, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm not "sporty" but walk 2 large dogs daily ( they pull on their leashes when they see a friend🙄🐾❤️), I run up and down 2 flights of stairs carrying up to 10kgs, several times a day. I'm constantly squatting, pushing and pulling things around the house. Had my bone density checked 6 months ago. I've the bones of a healthy 20 yo. despite my lack of oestrogen. It was such a relief.

I’m 56, in menopause, have been on HRT for five years, always “active” in my adulthood but earlier this year enlisted the help of a strength and conditioning coach because I was noticing decreased muscle tone and definition, and overall strength. Best thing I’ve ever done. He programs my workouts, supervises me when I feel I need it, and has encouraged me so much. The difference in my overall strength (especially legs and shoulders) has been tremendous. For the first time in my entire life I can do full body pushups! I was surprised by how much I was actually able to lift with proper form, more than I expected! Ladies, do not be afraid of lifting heavy! ❤Thank you for this excellent video, Doc!

I sooo appreciate your sharing his story

Yep, I’m a 60 year old guy and I’ve known this for decades. Lifting heavy weights, making yourself strong in the major compound lifts is LIFE CHANGING and ANYONE can do it (unless you have a disability, and even disabled people find a way) you just have to learn how to do it properly and be willing to put in the effort on a consistent basis. The alternative is going downhill as you age. SQUATS and DEADLIFTS are the king and queen. Just those 2 exercises will do it! And EVERYONE is a LOT stronger than they think they are. I convinced my wife to do these along with a few other exercises and she now knows it’s CRUCIAL to do for looking young and keeping healthy. You’re NOT going to get HUGE ladies( unless that’s what you’re after and make a HUGE commitment) but this WILL make you younger and you WILL LOSE WEIGHT. This is ABSOLUTELY the best bang for your buck without a doubt. It’s hard but SOOO worth it. And you can do it at home by investing in a power rack, a bar and a few plates. If you do these two exercises ONCE a week even, your life will change and it will completely change your health, just give it time!

Great! You can learn how to deadlift properly, conventional or sumo, depending on your body type, one will be better. Start off light and add 5lbs to the bar every week. I would highly recommend a power rack or at least a squat rack for doing squats, just so you have safety pins in case you don't make it up. Also, don't jerk the weight when you deadlift and don't descend too fast on the squats, these will lead to injury sooner or later. @@jhssmith2004

Agree with losing weight but not the younger part. At least for some, lifting heavier trashes the body and adrenals (unless you live a stress free). I'm at 215 deadlift and 265 hip thrust. It takes days to recover from the fatigue, and my skin looks terrible. Some 30 min cardio sessions, stretching, and bodyweight circuits reverses the damage very quickly. I still lift, but nothing over 100lbs for legs and 25lbs for arms if I want to feel vibrant. Just my experience.

I've been lifting weights for years, but it's only this year that I got a trainer -- and what a difference that makes, especially to my glutes! I sometimes can push more weight than men in my gym, and my trainer said he's always excited to train me because I push myself yet I also know my limit. So yeah, to all the women here, go for it. It's also good for mental health.

I also think that yoga can make people look younger! When you watch videos of people practicing yoga, you can see this (I am not talking about people who are 20-30 years old). It improves posture and strengthens the body :)

Great job!

At 55 years old, 5’5”, 103 lbs, my legs have NEVER looked this good in my entire life. For about 6 months now I’ve been building lean muscle in my quads, hamstrings and glutes by doing kettlebell swings, squats, deadlifts, hip thrusts, step ups, etc. and eating low carb. (Forget most of the machines in the gym-free weights are game changers.) I also use peptides like frag 191, ipamorelin and cjc no dac, Aod 1295 to lean out my body. My legs are cellulite free (finally) at 55 years old. Wish I’d understood NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis) a/k/a calories burned without exercising increased by your muscle size when I was 25 and I could have save a ton of wasted time and energy on cardio and focused solely on weight training.

It's amazing, like the Rolls Royce of rebounders. I have osteoporosis from being in surgical menopause since 42 and also live with RA. The Bellicon is easy on my joints, but allows the resistence necessary to build bone, helps me maintain balance, increases lymph circulation, builds muscle ( and firmness!) & provides ability to customize my workouts depending how I feel on a given day. Bouncing is a seriously happy exercise! 🙂

I was diagnosed with oesteopenia while I was in peri menopause at 46. At that time of diagnosis, I was already in the gym 5 days a week lifting with weights. I then started BHRT. About two years later another scan revealed my oestopenia was completely reversed. For me, I needed both the weighted training and BHRT to rebuild my bone density. I believe this is because I am already small boned, Asian and both my parents have osteoporosis and they both also take prescription meds for it. So I have genetics more prone for oesteoporosis unfortunately. Great advice ❤

Excellent video, I’ve been strength training since my early 40s, (now 53) I did bodybuilding and CrossFit so learned how to lift heavy with good form, I absolutely love it and look younger than before I started… women over 40 need to lift heavy but I agree you need training and supervision until you master it but doesn’t take long, you won’t look masculine, you will get your natural curves back and look sexier than your 20s 😀😀

Thank you ❤🎉 I just decided today , I'm going Monday to the gym by me and join! And exactly just what you talked about❤ I can't do what I at home , plus I'll get out of the house! And pay for the gym makes me accountable!

I was doing weight training 3 times per week but started getting extremely exhausted and tight and sore in my late 30s, even if I warm up beforehand and stretch after, have a protein shake after and magnesium before bed. Also, weight gain and bulky in the upper body where I build muscle easily. I changed to weight training once per week, full body 40min, twice per week ashtanga yoga 30min and then a couple of short bursts of walking up stairs or doing a 15 min on the spot walking workout. I’m not sure how it affected my bone but I lost the extra weight, lost the bulkiness in the upper body and am still toned all over.

Thanks Dr Rajani for helping women to retain their INDEPENDENCE in older age. I have been very active for the majority of my 61 years on this earth. I discovered figure shaping 29 years ago and competitive swimming 15 years ago. I can attest to what you are saying. You must keep moving, lifting those weights so that you can remain independent in older age. You can pick up those bags, get up and down from the floor. Mow the grass, garden, ride your horse etc. ❤

Hola Dr Rajani, I gave myself a challenge last year to do 100 squats with a 10 lbs weight and let me tell you it was not easy! I hurt all over but I didn’t give up so I did this daily and I noticed the change in everything, my muscles, tightening of my butt, my arms, posture, endurance and most of all my overall strength in walking and squaring down for longer periods of time! I moved to California and gave myself some time but started up again in between doing cardio one day and squats and weights the next day! My energy is better than 30 year olds and I’m 68 but don’t look it! Thank you for all your healthy videos, you are amazing ❤

I’m 73 and use the 10 pound weights for squats and upper body strength training too. You just gave me much encouragement. Thanks!!

Dr. Rajani!! You are awesome. I really appreciate all the gold nuggets that you share along with the platinum reminders. We appreciate you! Yes, I am doing all three of those exercises that you mentioned since last year and it is paying off. As you would say, also "eat real food" too!

You are such a kindred spirit Doctor Rajani! It’s so evident you are passionate and truly care!

Thanks for this, it is so important to do this daily if possible, your future self will love you for it xx

Just starting to lift weights today. Will update in month

Im a Bodybuilder 💪, that's why I look REAL GOOD!

Yess!!! ❤🙌🏼 I’ve been doing this for years and it’s awesome to hear it’s backed by science!!! These are facts folks- most people can’t believe my age (in my 50’s)!

Love all this brilliant advice

My knees hurt when I do squats, but I do what I can. I walk to the supermarket and lift the bags up and down in different ways for arm strength.

Same here... My left knee hurts so I can't really do squats and try to substitute squats with other exercises targeting the glutes and other leg muscles.

One of the reasons your knees hurt is because, we have to warm up before any type of exercise. I can attest to this because it has happened to me, whenever I don't take the time to warm up, my knees hurt badly the next day.

I used to tie a rag around my knee I pulled it tight in the middle on top of the patella. A narrow strip, ~ one to two inches wide. Pull it tight and tie. Amazon sells two or one for under $15, BC... Before covid! Jules

You are right on this. I used to spend hours in the gym on the treadmill, elliptical, and sometimes other cardio. I used to get tired, looked drained , and also had joint pains. Since about 2 years ago, I started HIT and weights training, and it was a a great change, I am feeling stronger, I have a better shape, and better posture.

Excellent and thanks for sharing

I have osteoporosis and I’m starting your suggestions tonight. Great scenery, I enjoyed it.

Love the outdoor shots!!!!

Very grateful. I will certainly start to incorporate this as a routine before shower. Beautiful beach!😊

Luckily discovered weight lifting when I was active duty Navy. Never liked running, but I loved lifting weights. Preferred tennis and power walking for "cardio." After retired from the Navy, gym fell to the wayside. Trying to get back into it again. Got a Total Gym and I love doing Squats, sumo squats and 1 leg squats: does keep you in the correct form. Also love pull-ups on the Total Gym: compound muscle groups targeted vs an isolated bicep curl or tricep kickback. Hadn't gotten back to dead lifts and shoulder presses: Now I will. Thanks for the awesome videos!!! Wealth of knowledge and information.

I use the elliptical, the sliding thing, to get my heart rate up to over 120BPM. This is to warm up my muscles for weight lifting. I focus on my upper and lower body. My workout schedule was put together by my trainer who took my family history, any physical limitations, and what my goals are. I did this because I want to be as stable on my feet as possible as I get older. I want to try and avoid age related injuries.

Love this video!! 🩷

Great Video, thank you!!

I been doing daily headstands and boy it has gave me muscle

Such great news! I love the deadlift, worked up to a 15kg weight, I do it as often as I can and weighted squats daily. Woohoo!! 😍🎉

Thank you! I now started with heavier weights! Look fwd next vid!

Great informative video..such an important subject. Watching my Uncle slowly lose his ability to stand and walk. His constant refusal to do any exercise. But sit & and watch TV all day. Now he is bed bound and double incontinent. That's my motivation, weight bearing exercises, and daily activity.

You can strengthen face bones by biting exercises. Increases jaw and face strength.

Great info Dr. Rajani!! As always!! Thank you!! ❤

He is so right. Take responsibility for your own health. Doctors are a great source of information, but you are unique and only you have all the information

"Sliders"😄 i love the deadlift, what about resistance bands? i love those

Excellent video. I am very petite, 62, 100lbs. for all of my adult life, and had been taking a med for osteoporosis, however was told to stop as you can't take it for a long period of time. I now am lifting weights and am anxious to get results from my next bone scan.
