I am 89. Find this workout very simple but highly useful. Doing almost daily for three years. Thank you for helping my fitness.

I am 66. I've been doing it three times a week for about a month, and I can actually see results!!! I'm going to start doing it every other day now. This is by far the best upper body workout video for seniors that I've found on the internet. The coach is friendly and personable.

I am a 65 yrs old doctor. Your video helped me immensely

So glad I discovered your videos: tired of perky young people leading the exercises!

perky young people are great (as long as they don’t keep yelling at the class to move faster), but it’s nice to have an exercise session with somebody going at my speed level.

Also it’s nice to exercise while looking at someone not wearing skintight spandex that makes me not want to look at them due to sheer embarrassment

Im 61 and worked with weights for years ,,this man is good he has a kind voice and his instructions are all spot on . Love from Australia .

A 70 years old man like me finds this exercise the best add on aside from my rower and Schwinn ic4 exercise bike! Thank you.

I just began strength training with this video today - we are fit at 60, but I sure appreciate the slower pace, instructions clear and personable, love the format!

Hi. I have just had a cancer op & was doing these exercises a few months before my op & have just started again 4 months after my op. I think they are great.

I appreciate the slower moving motion that is realistic for some seniors. I will use your videos for a senior center if you change the music. Thank you.

Fantastic, fabulous, wonderful, excellent. Thank you thank you thank you. 76years old Grandma to 6, Mother to 3 Wife if 55 years. Thank you, I need to go swimming with my youngest grandson and grand daughter. These excersises have enabled me to do just that. Thank you thank you.xx

Best workout video for my dad. Thank you!!

I must admit there lots of exercises for the elderly but these are the best and he goes at a nice pace

Thank you for making this workout video. My dad is 72 years old and I want him to get healthy and engaged in exercise. He started doing your upper, core and leg exercises 😊 Looking forward to more of your videos! Keep it up! Sending love and light from Manila, Philippines 🇵🇭

I just joined a fitness center. I am 85 . I just retired from the painting and drywall trade after 56 years working. I can run like I was 30 but not too far.

Very glad that u made these videos for seniors at last there is someone who care about senior's workout. Almighty bless u for this thought for elderly!!!

Good start to adding strength to my upper body.

I just started following you. I am a stroke survivor and have limited mobility but I found your video doable and fun. Thank you very much.

Very good instructions with kindness and humor. Many thanks!

Thank you for teaching these exercises which suit my age & health issues. I simply enjoy doing them almost every day. Keep up the good work 👍🏾

I am so pleased I found you, I have been unwell recently but now on the road to recovery. Your workout is just what I need, perfect!!

Very encouraging.

Thanks Great video! I'm 35 and this works for me!

Loved this!

This workout will be really useful. I’ve been losing weight on stationary bike and treadmill, and needed some strength exercises to go with that. Thank you so much 👍

Great routine!

Great. Thank you very much! Coach Doug is the best!

Totally enjoyed this work out. Perfect for seniors it’s still challenging enough to feel like I did something. Would highly recommend.

Useful, energized

Thank you

Excellent routine. The instructor made it both fun and challenging. Totally enjoyed and will do it again.

I am a cancer survivor and thanks a ton for helping me to get back into these mild but really good workouts. 🙏🏽

I am 79, and these are exactly the exercises I need.

Thank you. I’m enjoying following your video. The lateral fly is the toughest for me.

@albertgainsworth

3 жыл бұрын

I believe that's because these exercises seem to be mostly for the deltoids. I find that if I take a rest part way it helps my deltoids to recover. And for the lateral flyes, the instructor says to lean forward. I believe that takes the weight a bit off of the deltoids and a little bit on the back muscles. I welcome any discussion.

Brilliant! Would appreciate followed by a cooling down

Good pace, nice encouraging voice & thorough exercises. Shame about the background music - it's difficult to filter out.

...however you get used it. After 3 weeks I have noticed an increase in strength, so I've moved from full water bottles to 2.5kg weights

1. Shoulders press 2. Bicep curls 3. Lateral rise 4. Single arm overhead tricep 5. Diagonal shoulder rise 6. Forward punches 7. Reverse flies 8. Seated row 9. Modified skull crusher

2024 I discovered your channel and it is amazing 💚💚new subscriber

Good exercises, well explained, however, my parents-in-law found the music in the background very distracting, even off-putting. Because you talk over the music to explain the exercises and to motivate, it's not possible to just turn the volume off. Please consider doing some of these exercise videos without the distracting and repetitive sound in the background. Best wishes

Music is a bit repetitive

Thanks for the workout. I enjoyed it. The only reason I won't be coming back to your site is the incredibly annoying and monotonous "music" that underscores the workout. Drove me nuts! But as I said, great workout.

The seated upright row is not an advisable exercise to do as the shoulder is elevated and internally rotated during the movement, leaving it prone to injury. The hawkins/Kennedy test infact uses the same principle to test for shoulder impingement.

good assortment of exercises....I have a shoulder that doesn't work well, can't raise arm high, some pain and noise in the shoulder...hope this exercise will help. I am 93 yr old female

Thanks. Enjoyed the workout, Can I do this workout everyday?

I like your calm approach and the actual exercises but the background music is so annoying.

No not true its great to work with weights daily ,but have a day off now and again to rest and rebuild

Being using light weights can you do this exercise everyday or should you do it every other day in your mid-50s

Can we do these upper body exercises right after drinking water? And can we drink water if needed during these exercises?

Good cueing

How many times a week for a 69 man who could lose 15 lbs but is otherwise in good shape? Eating well these days. I really enjoy your workout. I was buff in my youth. Now 4 lb weights seem appropriate. Haven’t lifted for years.

Not the overhead he's doing. It's an old style lift (military press) that isn't ideal for anyone but especially seniors.

Is there a modification exercise for the last one? This hurts my lower back.

How many times a week do u recommend

What's the ideal weight for 65+ people to start with?

I really like this, but could you post a version without the repetitive music? It drives me crazy.

Music too loud

Wish this continuous music was not there ! Great video but with irritating music.

How heavy are your weights
