    Wow, I really didn't expect to get my heart rate up in just 10 minutes! That was awesome! I was diagnosed recently with osteoarthritis arthritis in both knees, but never had any issues until recently with my right knee. I'm used to being active and working out regularly, and I'm determined not to let this arthritis own me! I just completed your 3-day exercise routine for improving walking; and tonight I signed up for your 14-day free trial. I'm excited to start it tomorrow!😊❤

    Hello Alyssa. I just did this entire video in a walker! At least I moved as much as possible, even using my tip toes when necessary. My Piriformis, Psoas are so tight that I cannot walk. I see a medical massage therapist but they can't seem to release the muscle no matter how hard they press. Would you have exercises for the glutes I could use in a chair? I just love your videos. You are in such great shape which is a perfect example for all watching. I'm 68 and all crunched up. No arthritis, just tight muscles. Thanks for all you do...God Bless You.

    Thank you so much for all your thoughtfulness in these videos. I’m 60 years young and had a TKR 5 months ago. I was “successfully released” from PT at 10 weeks because I was at zero extension and 125 degrees flexion, and completed all their requirements, but I want to do more than simply walk in our house and errands. I want to return to doing more things that I enjoy. I ran track at a D1 University and at one time very active in a variety of sports. Now, I’m doing nothing. I didn’t have my patella replaced but it had a lot of decay I had extensive damage to the femur. I can’t kneel as per my doctor so I’ve been trying your videos and hoping this will help me add more strength over time so I can get back to enjoying life.

    Discomfort may be caused for a few reasons: using different muscles, attempting new movements, too much too quickly, need for upper body support, recovery, what the rest of your day looks like, muscle imbalances that may be present, etc. The key is helping your body to recover.

I've been doing this workout every morning now for two weeks before I start work, on the rest I use light kettle bells to work bicep, tricep and shoulders. Thanks again I am starting to feel stronger in my legs, I just have to work on my left knee a bit more as it has only recently become a problem. Also I have found cycling to help I do this 4 days a week for 30 mins on a stationary bike then stretching after. 😊
