[@Dedendwight]

I'm so grateful to you for offering these doable, yet productive workouts. I'm just trying to start regular exercise. It's not easy to find good workouts as one who is out of shape, getting older and dealing with arthritis. So thank you, I appreciate you so much!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You are very welcome! I appreciate you working out with me 💜

[@naomin5284]

[@tracyheath6076]

YES ! Always looking for short videos to stretch after I skate. This stretching video is amazing. Thanks for holding the stretches long enough for the muscle to relax. I love the figure 4 stretch while I am skating. Sometimes after long distance, my lower back starts to hurt and I just do the figure 4 while rolling and the pain is quickly gone and I can keep skating with enjoyment.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

yes! You know figure 4 is my favorite! p.s. we have another skater on the channel, she left a comment the other day!

[@a.duarte4640]

Did this stretch after one of your cardio strength training routines. What a nice stretch. Really appreciate your verbal cues regarding positioning. It seems you are watching me and know exactly what body positioning I need to correct. Thank you. I feel great and stretched. Questions: do you have suggestions for tummy (core) strengthening? Would appreciate some advice. Again, thanks for all you do for us gals.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Glad you like this one too! Core strength is so important! I have many ab/core videos but I personally prefer getting on the floor. Add in some more pilates to your workouts. Pilates is great for core strength. I would also make sure you are working your abs at least 3x a week. Add on a 10 minute ab workout (find them in my playlist section) to your workouts if they don't already include ab work.

[@andreadixon4987]

Great stretch thank you and every move is explained so well. Enjoyed all the 10 minute sessions this week - ideal to put together to make a longer workout if needed
