15 min Gentle All Standing Exercise Program | no equipment needed

[@charliegowing9471]

Thank you for this top to bottom stretch. Shoveling snow the last few days has left me a little stiff. Thanks again from Charlie in Syracuse New York.

[@chaisroom6631]

Finally after doing so many seated workouts i did a standing one and I am so happy and proud of myself...thanks so much for your gentle instruction

[@ImprovedHealth]

Woohoo! Progress!!! Thank you SO much for sharing that with me. I have lots of gentle workouts in the 'gentle' playlists which I hope will help to continue to build your strength & stamina. Way to go!

[@chaisroom6631]

@ImprovedHealth yes I will continue to use them and thanks so much

Love these gentle workouts when I need to take it a little easier. Perfect for this today. You have such a great variety to choose from - I can always find just what I need. Thanks, Jules.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks Ann. I'm glad to read that you change up the workouts. Sometimes it's good to slow the pace down to really feel the muscles working.

[@staceydroogas928]

What a unique exercise routine! Almost all the moves were brand new. I had to observe you carefully as you, thankfully, demonstrated before each move. I had no sound other than your background music, but the closed captions helped as well. This didn't impede my performance if a bit tentative at first. Your endless arm movements employing pushing, literally, against air using your muscles, was once a difficult move to perform in the past, but no longer. I got it and benefited greatly. The wealth of your variations is amazing!...Anastasia

Thanks Jules, I needed that. Stress is bad at this time so I’m his is helping.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I’m sorry to hear about the stress in your life right now. It’s great that you are using exercise to help cope. I hope things improve for you soon. 🫂

[@sharonfernandes9891]

I loved Day 1. Today, since I am 72 years old and have never done this kind of exercise before, I find the pace of the warmups instruction, not execution, too fast. I can keep up easily once I understand the moves, but by the time I get all the moving parts going in the right direction, you have already moved on to the next exercise. Please consider taking just a few more seconds to slow down the initial instructions so I can practice without feeling like I am running a marathon. Once into the actual exercise your instructions are perfectly clear and easy for me to follow since I am very familiar with using free weights.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you SO much for the honest and helpful feedback. I already have tomorrow’s workout ready to go but I will definitely keep your feedback in mind as I record days 4&5. Thanks so much!

[@chompisaurus]

Not a senior, but 8 months pregnant, with joint and nerve issues. I noticed A LOT of pregnancy workouts require getting up and down off the floor, which I just can't do right now. So I've been trying to find a gentle standing workout. This was perfect for me! Thank you 🥰

[@ImprovedHealth]

First of all, congrats for exercising while pregnant, especially at 8 months! It's not easy to do, but definitely helps to feel better. Thanks for letting me know that these workouts are working for you. I have quite a few options now in the gentle and beginner levels that hopefully will work for you (will hopefully work well after you have the baby as you get back into exercising, too). Welcome to my channel, and I wish you all the joys a new baby brings!

[@cbradford3120]

Love the workouts, Jules. We've been making these part of our day for several months, now. Thank you!!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you so much for letting me know that you're enjoying these. I always appreciate hearing from viewers.😊

THAT IS AWESOME!!! Progress!

[@pampang3524]

thanks again

[@mollytaylor3669]

Amazing stuff! All your vids are so well done and very helpful. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. Have you ever used any of these custom meal plan tools? I got one from Next Level Diet to help me add some muscle and I actually like their plans. Was just wondering if you've heard of or tried any of them yourself. Thank you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi Molly, I haven't tried the custom meal plans. I focus on eating a healthy diet and drink a protein drink after doing weights daily:)

[@67Sylvie]

lieben Dank🎉

[@annemarieh7382]

Hi Jules: Just finished this and loved it. Good for my arms even without weights. Yesterday I gave up because it was too slow for me even with doubling the speed. Hey, thanks to you, it looks like I am not a "real" beginner anymore. Practice helps improving our health. See you tomorrow for day 3. Oh yeah, perhaps remind us once in a while to pull our bellybutton in.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I felt that I had neglected the gentle workouts and wanted to make sure I provided them for the folks that need them. I know they'll be too easy for a lot of my followers. I can only manage a series a week, though. I'll have beginner and intermediate workouts out soon. I had planned to have an intermediate workout yesterday but I had computer issues. I'll have a new one out next Monday:)

[@caroldavey4129]

I just did this one. It's was a good workout for the arms ❤😊 Thank you😊❤❤

Hullo Jules...' enjoy working out with you...these are such lovely 15 min sessions...use them as a warm-up before the main w/o...thank you so much! Have a lovely run-up to Thanksgiving. ❤
