Great info! Found your page not too long ago. Great stuff! I help women 50+ find the joy in walking and running 🤩such a great way to stay healthy as we age!

Have fun and good luck! 😊

[@StrongMom]

Thanks for this. I just started training an older adult and was looking for some guidance.

[@CynMeyerSecondWindMovement]

Amazing! Thanks for watching and keep up your great work 🙌

[@willissrps9294]

Great stuff, but, speedy talk makes some details of weight or position not clear.

[@CynMeyerSecondWindMovement]

Sorry about that! We've had a lot of comments that the talking is too slow, so we're at a loss... Which parts did you not understand?

[@ronaldcambridge3126]

Why not add a 6th criteria as a key toward fitness testing for older adults that includes cognitive abilities? I can fully attest to making a cognitive component to this regiment greatly supplements the aforementioned metrics, or perhaps you consider that to be a subject of another post?

[@CynMeyerSecondWindMovement]

Hi Ronald, thanks for the interesting question! We mainly focused on physical fitness in this video, but we touch more on the topic of nutrition and brain health here (kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGXRmoOqmL-fsJo). Hope this is helpful 🤗

[@saheeljaleel1632]

very fast speaking.did you know that you are speaking for the old generation who certainly cannot perceive cognitively at your speed of demonstration.please be guided

[@CynMeyerSecondWindMovement]

Thanks for the feedback! It's good to keep in mind that people of all ages have different speeds at which they're comfortable listening. Age doesn't always define how fast we can catch up with information. Let's try to avoid making assumptions based on age 😊 You can always slow down the video speed in the bottom right corner!
