I love that your videos do not have talking in them. I have ADHD as well as learning best visually. I don't need any distractions. There is one thing about the music on this 20 Min Gentle Walking in that it changes in the middle of a set; for me, that distracts. Maybe it is intentional; but, just in case, maybe you could check it out to see if you can sync the routine segments with the music. Thanks for putting these gentle walking 'workouts' out there.

Hi Bonnie, thanks so much for your feedback. This video is one of my earlier videos and besides learning how to edit and create videos, I've also had to learn how to be a DJ with creating music playlists. It has definitely been a massive learning experience all around. I am constantly learning and trying to make the music flow as best as I can (and like to think I've improved since making this video). I can't change it now that it's uploaded but I do try to make a big effort to make them flow as much as I can.

I feel on the stairs I bruised or broke my big toe on my right foot, so I am hurting. I tried to do this workout, but surprisingly I had found it difficult.And I have been exercising for over a year now, so I am not a complete beginner. Well, what can I say..stopped after only 7 minutes this is how far I got.

Just got over Covid and am easing back into my exercise routines. I got my core and strength in but decided to do the gentle walk so I don't over exert myself. Love the gentle beats of the music. So calming! thank you Jules!

Thank you for this. I was not in the mood to exercise but knew I should. When I saw this I decided to give it a try and am glad that I did. I usually do your seated videos but I was able to do this. Just want to say I like your videos with the count down clocks better than those without the clocks. I greatly appreciate all you do. Thanks very much.

Oh yay! I'm so glad to know that you usually do the seated workouts, but could manage this one. I purposely create the gentle ones to be exactly that...gentle. I'm also creating some combined seating and standing exercises on my new chair channel which might work well for you.

Ankylosis Spontaneous and hip bursitis: This gentle walking and gentle exercise series combined with the 25 day strength training program is great. I am starting to walk stairs a little easier and get up from seated position better. I have tried your other beginner exercises but these gentle series are the best for my condition. Thank you!

I'm so grateful for these gentle workouts. My mood was low today, blood pressure was high, and I didn't want to move but your workout was just the amount of effort I was able to give right now. I feel a little better now that I've sweat and moved my body. (20 minutes, 1155 steps, 1.1 miles, 8 mins in the cardio zone, 6 in fat burn zone and 6 mins light zone).

Thanks so much for your feedback and congrats for choosing to exercise. These gentle workouts are super healthy for the body...we don't have to work out super hard to see benefits in our bodies. I find a lot of people enjoy doing 2-3 short gentle ones throughout the day to keep the BP and blood sugar at better levels.

Currently going through chemo at the moment and this is a great workout for me on days when I'm tired but need a bit of movement. Surgery and chemo have knocked my fitness down many levels but at least this helps keep me in the game so I can start building up again and keeps my joints and back moving. Thank you!

I absolutely LOVED this workout! I struggle so much to keep up with other indoor walking videos that claim to be low impact and easy. I did take a couple breaks, but thats because I pushed myself a little and followed along to the speed of the music. Which even still wasn't that hard. Loved all of the moves and how it switched out every 30 seconds. I respect that there was no talking, but it did make the transitions to new moves a little awkward at times. Nothing that was too challenging though. I happily subscriber!

Thanks so much for this. I suffer from fibromyalgia (back/hip/shoulder pain mainly) and this is great for me. Gentle enough to be gentle but enough to feel Ive done something. The added bonus of increased steps keeps that part of my mind happy that thinks I need to do more steps. Its perfect! First time tonight and I will be back tomorrow to check out some of your other workouts. Thanks so very much xx

@@ImprovedHealth thank you for asking! I would love a few strength training videos. Hand weights, standing (or sitting for those who need it). I've only seen 1 from you, where your sweet dad is participating. There may be more and I don't see them. I made a routine for myself, but sometimes need a "push" to do it! 😁 Floors are out for me. So some alternative to sit ups and push ups would be great! Aren't you glad you asked? 😁😁 I realize that this is my wish list and you must think about everyone. So, just please keep this in mind. I'm following you on FB so I don't miss anything!! ❤

That’s perfect, thanks Linda! Strength training is actually the videos I am working on next. I have lots of ideas…just need to create them to work for different fitness levels. I do have a basic strength training workout…if you click on my logo on KZbin, then go to ‘videos’, you’ll find it there. I also have a website, www.improvedhealthforseniors.com and all the videos are there, too. Although, I do need to update it with the newest videos. I’ll do that this weekend. Thanks so much for letting me know what will help!
