Thank you! Just started today in my journey to lose weight and be healthier. This video got me off the couch to get it started.

I’m a 20 year old who has gained over 100 lbs since I was 16 during covid, and I used to be very fit and athletic. Now I live a sedentary lifestyle (the only exercise I do is one 15 minute walk per week for my dog) and I want to change my habits desperately. I also have depression, anxiety, and ADHD which makes it extremely hard for me to start something, let alone keep it consistent. This is the first video I’ve seen of yours, and I found it incredibly easy to get up out of bed and stretch with you. Your body looks so similar to mine and that was extremely comforting and made me feel welcome. I hope that I can continue to watch your videos every morning to stretch and hopefully kickstart a good habit for me. Thank you so much, genuinely.

As of monday here in Australia im going to try this i am perimenapausal have thyroid issues so ive gone from 55kgs to 90kgs i just want my belly gone 😢

Perfect , best, pain finish

Sooo, apparently this workout has been around for 3 years but i just found it and loved it. It was just right for my current capabilities and i loved your positive attitude. I hope you never stop doing these❤

Keep up the good work!

What happens if you can’t kneel, because of pain, I’ll be there till I die - or a crane arrives to help me back up…..😮

Thank you

I like it

This is too fast, got bad knees

Thank you SO MUCH for talking to us throughout the video! So many of these workout videos are just the music without any audible indication of when we should switch exercises. Bitches be out there assuming we can all magically see the screen at every exercise, I've damn near twisted my neck like an owl trying to keep track of when to switch exercise on some of those videos. (and also thank you for the no jumping. for the obvious reasons, but also because my cheap-ass apartment building has walls and floors so poorly isolated I can hear when the neighbor walks from their bedroom to their kitchen - if I jump the entire house is going to know it)

This was definitely a challenge ( Those inch thingies were HECK) but finally a workout routine I can 100% complete and don't have to sit out any parts! I really appreciate you making these videos! You are a warrior❤

Thank you for making this its amazing and accommodating! Great place to start.

Holly! This makes me so happy!! I'm not overweight, but I've been sick for the last two years. I got diagnosed with Menire's Disease and never know when I'm going to get vertigo. I can't keep up with basic movements of other routines because I have poor balance and I'm extremely weak since I've been sedintary. Also have bad knees, I can't jump or run. It's been a wild change, because I was very athletic in highschool. Today has been really discouraging for me. But THIS is amazing. You're meeting a need for a population of people that no one else thinks of. Thank you for your courage and boldness, and for encouraging so many of us to keep trying, or to get back up and start something new. Blessings to you ❤️

Hi! 160 pounds at 5'0", day 1, and i gotta say most of those workouts were pretty rough, which means i have high hopes going forward with doing this daily

You can do it holly❤❤❤

Compare from the 1st video 5yrs ago to the latest one,nothing changed,her weightloss journey is a bullshit, working out in front of the cam and eating garbage behind the scene,,,another weightloss fail

Don't give up you can do it❤❤😊

On the verge of 400lbs. Thank you for the video! I haven't exercised that hard in a long time. And I'm not out of breath. Hopefully this will help me finally begun to lose weight!

Loved it! Thank you period❤❤😊

I am only a few pounds over my "ideal" weight so I don't really need your workout. I just started watching it out of curiosity. I use workouts from other KZbin channels and although I am quite a bit older than you I don't use workouts for "older" people. I can do virtually all the exercises in the "normal" workouts. But I realize people who are significantly overweight would be unable to do most of the exercises in the workouts I do (indeed trying to do so could backfire because they might find them too difficult and give up, or injure themselves). So it is good you came up with an alternative exercise routine for such people. I hope you and others who need this routine succeed in your weight loss goals. If any of you get discouraged just remember it could be much worse. I have seen people on the program "My 600 pound life" who are so overweight they have trouble moving and some of them are bedridden. I am glad I am not like that and as long as I keep exercising I never will be. (But the main reason people on that program gained so much weight is they eat almost constantly, in particular high fat food.)

Im genuinely so thankful for this because most workout vids are from skinny women who have never been fat and don't understand that I physically can't do a sit up and there's nothing wrong with that it's just kinda disheartening when their all like "ya this is suuuper easy i can do it in my sleep"

We are all climbing our own mountains. Some of us are born in crevasses, others are born on plateaus, you are facing a cliff. If you cannot climb it, nobody has a right to criticize.

I’m just restarting(again )trying to exercise every other day . I found you this past Wednesday and I really like having someone who looks like me on an exercise program. There is so much to choose from your videos, thank you .🙏

WHERE DID YOU GO HOLLLLLYYY

I want to be healthy and not feel disappointed when I look at myself. I'm obese and I don't want to remain that. My natural state was not what I'm today. Sadly I went through a stressful time and I let myself go. It does not mean I hate myself. I understood that there was a problem and I'm trying to go back to the shape in which I used to feel happy and healthy. Let's be real, world is not kind to fat people. I hate going dress shopping because none of the beautiful clothes fit me. My mom never made me feel bad about myself but she was always honest about when my body stretched dresses and bulged out. Positivity is not just simply not making fun of people but also not trapping them in false ideals. Yes, my weight goes up and down. Sometimes I eat junk food. Yes I skip workout somedays...sometimes for weeks when I'm stressed. But I'm trying my best. I don't want people who smile at my face and laugh at my back under the guise of "body positivity" around me. I love your videos and it does help me. Thank you ❤. Please don't worry about these people who poke their noses where they don't belong. You are helping people like me while you are on your journey to your brand of happiness. Nobody is forcing them to be here if its making them uneasy.

This is so good to start. Others don't post true beginner workouts and it's extremely demotivating. Thank you, I think these are exactly what I need ❤

“Be the change you want to see in the world” and baby you did!! You saw a need and answered the call and I cannot thank you enough! I’ve been looking all over the internet for someone who could relate to my experience while still challenging me. You crafted something perfect here with the two in mind. Thank you and keep up the great work!! ❤

Brillant tips. Thank you.... im defo going to try them... definitely will get me strong to start doing proper stomach crunches ❤

Had to pause so many times. So humbling. Im 222lb or 101kg and im sooooo unfit due to basically doing nothing all day and doing less that 5000 steps everyday and i plan on getting fitter as its a problem but god damn.

Hips are crunching when I do the side crunches

Fu k the inchworms xD

My friend told me she died from a heart attack, but I so rip you help me lose weight

Is it ok for knee pain patients

Thank you hun just starting now even though my knees are not 100

Working out with you in 2024. Fun -- thank you!

It’s obvious I’m late to the party, but I’m so happy I found you!

Thank you! As someone whose currently 120, I need to do it for my health, every video I watch is not easy to do, so happy I found your channel😭❤️

Love this channel !!!

Going to start this tomorrow, wish me luck ❤

Making fun of ANYONE at the gym, ppl minding their business trying to be healthier is as idiotic as making fun of a disabled person in a wheelchair. You have to be such an ignorant ass to do that!

Hi! Ive been using this video as someone who is obese and has chronic illness and ive lost 60lbs using this video as well as better portion control of food. Thank you Holly!

You are my idol❤❤❤❤

Finally a REAL person working out lol.

Hi holly your 28 day challenge has inspired me to have a go but it only goes up to 24 is there more to come? ❤

I've been waiting for you my whole life. So-called "beginner" workouts leave me feeling like jelly and you can't get through 5 minutes out of 10. Who even includes burpees in a beginner video?!

Im not typically obese, but after many injuries and putting on weight, its been increasingly difficult to move my body, these stretches I have been vital this last few days

Hey Holly! 49 year old male here at 340 lbs. Is this routine ok for me?

Thank you for a wonderful stretching vid. I did want to share a modification that I used during the calf stretches. I don't have a free section of wall available in my bedroom, where I'll be doing my stretches, so I angled myself to have my forward knee mostly next to/against the side of my bed, and was able to balance myself with my hands on the edge of the mattress. Also, I felt the stretch in my hamstring way before I felt any stretch in my ankle, so I bent my back knee just slightly till I felt the Achilles tendon, and then I straitened the knee to match the stretch.

you guys are taking fitness advice from this lady? lol
