I am 89 yrs old . My legs atrophied after 6months bed rest as a child. I have found these exercises a true Godsend. I’m back to walking heal to toe, not shuffling along and these exercises were doable! Thank you, thank you!

I really need this exercise.

What a lovely restful voice you have and your exercises are really helpful for me at 82 years of age. Thank you

We are doing 2 of the 3 exercises with our 97 year old father. He does reps 5 of the chair squats with the lift chair slightly elevated. He’s been doing them for a month or so. We also do 10 reps of the toe-heal lift. Hoping he will have continued mobility for the remainder of his life.

Nice and informative

When I do my body- scan meditation I've started to say "nonexistant calf muscle" . I groan remembering how strong it was when I did ballet .So : STOP ! Go back to this video . As a nurse, I say I haven't found a better rehab physio programme than yours on the internet, and boy are there a lot to choose from . At 84, I thank you for such practical advice, and SINCERE encouragement.

I don’t know what physio program you’ve tried before, but physio definitely teach these exercises to patients.

Love the pillow chair squats at the sink, progressing from 2 arms, to single arm, to no arms, then remove one of the pillows and start the progression again !!

not just for the elderly.. this has helped me immensely.. thanks! gotta dig the Doug.

Thank you Dr. for let us know how to exercise in our golden years! You are so explicit in the exercises, please keep sharing your knowledge with us.⭐️

Excellent exercises especially for my elderly mum, I find other channels don’t take into consideration the frailty of some of our older population thank you for doing so, she may be 90 but she wishes to stay independent as long as possible, a fall due to atrophy could impact that exponentially, I’ll keep her company doing the exercises too!

6 Miles a day WOW that is an achievement

Thank the Lord I found this! Starting today.

I was working with a physical therapist because I felt weak and she had me doing some really extreme exercises to strengthen my legs using weights, Step Up and specifically sit to stand. She also had me doing some squatting exercises using the exercise ball against the wall and additional sit to stand exercises at home. After about 12 sessions with her I developed patellafemoral pain syndrome in both my kneecaps. I ended up getting cortisone shots in both my knees, which did not provide any pain relief. Then I had Synvisc shots in both my knees. That cost me 600.00 copay . The synvisc may have helped a little. Now I have this pain to deal with on a daily basis I am 72 years old I never had any knee problems in my whole life. I would be careful with the sit-to-stand exercises but the other two exercises look like they would be helpful. This proves that you just have to be careful when you start doing exercises, even when you're working with a professional therapist.

I am from India and I am 73(male). Thanks for your tips. Somehow I have been doing these exercises without any prior knowledge for quite some time.However after seeing your video and the commentry I think I must share it with others.

Im currently going to PT to strengthen my muscles for better walking. These three exercises are among the ones I do.

Thank you for your help to us Seniors 👍🙏

wisdom and experience. thank you dr. doug

Thank you so much. I am definitely going to do these exercises!

I’ve always been strong in the legs, however I’ve had back and knee injuries that’s set me back. I’m going to do these exercise to get my strength back in my legs. I’m 77 and it’s only going to get worse, if I don’t do exercise. These look very doable, thank you for thinking of us oldies. 😉

Thanks so much for your education on these exercises. I will start doing it.God bless you.🙏

I'm a slightly older senior. (69) I really hope you did start and hoping you made further progress. These are great movements that can make your day to day life so much better. I'm fighting old age 1 rep at a time. Going down swinging. Remember: _Strength is never a weakness_ _Weakness is never a strength_ The number 1 metric for successful old age survival is muscular strength. You can make strength gains at any age, just have to take that 1st baby step and commit to adding more baby steps every day.

Short, clear and effective video. Thank you for explaining the exercises. Starting today!

Dear doctor thanks for your informative video.I am Senior and had undergone full torn Achilles tendon surgery 7 months ago. Now almost recovered. Since i was on bed the Ortho advised after removal of cast bandage, to walk with crutch for 3 months to gain confidence in walking. I learnt many more things from you like atrophy etc. Appreciate your kind advices.

Because I quit taken the statin in August last year. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and my body was fighting itself and all the heart meds they put me on. I did a lot of searching for answers in the Rheumatoid Arthritis FB groups and you tube groups and came across a post that described all my symptoms and muscle loss and how it all started. I started taken Qunol CoQ10 once a day. After 3 days I could tell I was finally feeling better. By February of this year I could sit up in bed, I could use a rolltator to walk and get around I could stand up and actually make my meals. It's September and I can now walk without a rolltator. I can get in and out of my truck. I can go to my Doctor's appointment by my self. I can step up or down without holding on to anything. I can stand and shower without help. My balance is back.
