Thanks for taking the time to write your comment, Cathy. I loved reading it.🥰

Just did this quickly on the television instead of the iPad so saw your face fully. Lovely smile you have😊

Aww, that's kind of you to say, Angela. Thank you!

Thankyou! Have a lovely day too :)

[@marthasanchez932]

Great workout with light weight.

[@pampang3524]

Thanks for this. I am still feeble. I only used 2 light bottles of water but I am glad I followed through

[@ImprovedHealth]

If you're doing this with water bottles, you need to give yourself more credit, Pam! Congrats for challenging yourself with using the extra weights.💪

[@chrisperkins6403]

How creative to you to change up the walks with low weights by incorporating the shorter intervals. At first I thought "too easy" but -- as always -- you're right and it definitely got harder. It must be a lot of work for you to not only create the workouts but also plan the scenery and color coordination. Your efforts are noticed and very much appreciated. Love your "summer 'do"!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks so much for feedback, Chris. It definitely does get harder...amazing how much light dumbbells can intensify a workout. Thanks for your kind compliments:)

[@chrisperkins6403]

Just found your channel and I real!y like it I just retired about 2 month ago cause of back issues in the retail business so very active standing all day so I was looking for something to slowly help me out since I do not exercise and by God's grace I found you thank you so much for helping people like me, God bless you

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi Linda! Welcome to my channel! Just so you're aware, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate). You can find all of the workouts categorized in the playlists. I also create different types so you'll find them categorized as walking workouts, strength, all-in-ones (which includes cardio, strength, balance & stretching) and so on. You can also find all of the workouts on my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com. I hope that helps! Congrats for looking into workouts so soon after retirement! Hopefully the seated core workouts will help to strengthen your core which will in turn hopefully help your back, too.

[@kimlowe-breiner9700]

This was a perfect substitute when the longer workout I had planned just wasn't happening. Got to keep moving!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Kudos to you for making a workout fit into your busy day.

Your brief workouts always make me feel better and so does the backdrop as it is a memory of my Greece trip and boy did I workout walking them steep hills.....24 years ago....Thank you for this video and just because I have slowed down I have not given up yet. 👍Have a good evening

Good morning Jules. I really enjoyed this workout, and near the end i did find the arm work quite challenging. Thank you for that...Have a great day.😊

[@lauraleas306]

Holy cow! So smart to do 15 second intervals!! I had to lower then deop the weights a few times😊 but I did it! Thank you Jules! 🏜🌟❤️

[@ashliwemett]

Loved the addition of hand weights in this. Thank you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks! If you find any of the other cardio workouts too easy, holding on to 1 lb weights will definitely make any cardio workout more challenging. You just don't want to use weights if the movements are too fast. Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed it.

[@julieblackstock8650]

Perfect!! Love the 15 sec timings with the arms as my arms are so weak but I managed this.. please more like this one.. It works really well for me and get a few steps in aswell. Thank you !!

That was so good...... Towards the last few minutes i struggled but did it lol i love walking with weights..... Day 4 strength done and Tina Turner again.... Love the Tina one sl much ❤

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow! Great combo of workouts once again, Allyson!

[@hb4299]

Really nice workout, Jules! If we used super light weights and shortened the time, this routine would be great to use as a warm up before lifting heavier weights. If you have time, could you make something like that for us?

[@ImprovedHealth]

I'll have to give that some thought.

[@janetc7232]

I try to do some type of arm workout everyday. Even so this was a bit challenging this morning, but with the sort reps doable! Getting in additional steps is also a plus. Thank you for the workouts!

[@ImprovedHealth]

The arm workout can definitely be more challenging than it looks. My suggestion is to use a 1 lb weight and allow the arms to come down as needed, or continue with no weight. Your arms will definitely still benefit from the workout even without weights.

[@carriegronlund8850]

I really felt my arms being challenged. I decided to use 2 lb weights and it was tough getting through it but I did enjoy it. I like these 15 min or 20 min videos because you add on and for some reason it doesn't seem like it is as long as if I used a 30 min or longer video. Today I did this video, then Tina Turner Tribute and then the 15 min lower your blood sugar. :)

[@ImprovedHealth]

Oh wow! Congrats for choosing 3 different workouts! That's awesome, Carrie!

[@jeantelep6432]

Very good workout for the arms. Nice to change exercises so frequently and a great variety, too. Thank you for demonstrating a few of them from the side…helped me realize I needed to adjust. The timer and the cues for what’s next are really appreciated! I combined it with my favorite- hips and glutes. I got a pretty good workout today!😅Thank you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Lol, superman on a mission! I love the progression!

[@LaurieS-cz1fr]

Wow, this one fooled me. I started out with 3 lbs., then went down to 2, and then to 1, lol. It was more challenging than it looks. Very short and effective cardio and upper body workout!

[@ImprovedHealth]

That's perfect, actually! That's a great way to get in an awesome workout by lowering the weights as needed.

[@MEw650]

It’s fun having a new workout! This is really a great one, too. We enjoyed it very much. Thanks again, Jules, for always presenting us with new opportunities to get exercise in!!❤

[@laurieschatzberg]

Loved this workout and it humbled me! I think of myself as reasonably fit, but I have been away from your videos for a few days. And I had focused mostly on Cardio with some weight exercises on my own. I started this one with my 3 pound weights and at your “walk it out” interval, I switched to 1 pound weights. 😅 By the end, I was pooped! Thank you. I’ll my arms rest a day and plan to do this every other day so I can eventually do it with my 3 pound weights. 😊😊😅

[@ImprovedHealth]

If it makes you feel any better, I used 1 lb weights in my video, Laurie! I think it's a great idea to use the 3 lbs and lower them when you need to just like you did. That's a perfect way to continue building strength.

[@anuradhab4481]

Good evening, Jules...my arms are ready to fall off😅...This w/o was so good, gratitude🙏 You are looking good with the shortened hair...preparing for summer? It's so warm here today, we're waiting for the monsoons!

I'm glad your arms got in a good workout:) I try to avoid going back to the salon too often so I asked for her to cut a bit more off this time. Plus, yes, summer weather is finally here! I'm so happy about that! Today is 36 C with the humidex! Back to mid 20's next week (which is more normal).

The fact that you are back is great! You could have made the choice to not come back to exercise, but you're here:) Life is busy, and things happen that are out of our control. The main thing is you came back to exercise, and now each day is a new day and a new opportunity to start fresh again. Be easy on yourself for the first week of exercise, and when you're ready, you can start increasing the time of workouts. Welcome back!💪

With replacements, definitely modify workouts as needed and do a move that works for your shoulder. The last thing you want is to injure it again. Modifications are definitely encouraged as needed:)

I really appreciate this workout. Although I am an intermediate to advanced worker I use only 1 kg weights but the main thing for me is the perfect short duration of the moves. I find that I can get my cardio going and get better results toning with this workout. I also love that the back work was mainly at the end because I need to be totally warmed up to do my back without straining … love it ❤❤❤❤. Ps … as I continue with your channel I find that I can get more out of the older workouts in different ways …so adaptable!

When I use the clocks in the workout, I don't use a bell since I'm afraid some people would get annoyed by hearing the bell all the time (and the clocks let you know when to change the movement). I do use it during the stretching section.

Hello, I would like to know the difference between level 1 and level 2 exercises. For beginners, which ones are recommended? Thanks from Italy

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi! When I create the gentle workouts, I think of people who are new to exercise, and people who might be struggling to get motivated to be physically active. The beginner level is a little bit more challenging. My recommendation is to start with the gentle workouts, and if you find them too easy, then move up to the beginner level workouts.
