[@georgiasarri3499]

Julie is fit and strong and looks much younger Thank you both !

[@lizbrown7232]

My husband and I are in our early 70s. We walk and dance regularly every week, and he is at the gym three times a week.

[@Mary-el3pi]

I broke my kneecap 11 years ago and the doctor wired and screwed it back together. I can’t get down for lunges…or genuflect in church! But I’m trying with better balance in yoga and teach line dancing twice a week. Life is good!

[@candacemommie9957]

You go girl!❤

[@BarbS548]

Great to have Julie in the video! I'm 70 and love to bike and walk but do feel like I'm slowing down. I've been trying to add more stretching and strengthening exercises to my days to help keep my muscles from being sore. Thanks a heap!

[@user-mq9co4tl1w]

Fantastic...thanks Brad and Julie!!! From Canada....

[@zforces]

I'll be turning 70 this year. I used to work out and run religiously. The running has given me knee issues, and I stopped running a few years ago in the hope that my knees will last me 'til the end. I had DBS implants put in my brain last January for essential tremors. As they turn up the amplitude of the signal to my new electrodes to alleviate the shaking, my balance has been less than perfect. It has occurred to me that if I build up the strength in my legs, it would help compensate for that. My wife is always making me watch Bob and Brad videos, so that is how I ended up at this video. My wife and I have just discussed using our silver sneakers membership at last...and going to the gym instead of watching TV a couple nights a week. I'm looking forward to getting back in the workout habit, and improving my balance with some professional guidance here.

[@michelel3372]

Thank you, Julie! You are amazing!

[@arlenecearns1866]

72, did a 10k “race” event yesterday. I wasn’t last! My daughter, 33, was there in her first run event. 71 year old husband too. She beat me, I beat him, lol. Her boyfriend, 34ish, ran with her and coached her. He was a bit tired, as he had done a 33k training run the day before. Goals!

[@videosrus8631]

8:34 Reminds me of Monty Python and the Ministry of Silly Walks.

[@cammierountree5172]

Thank you! At 59, I need any information and help available!

[@JEWELZYOUTUBE]

Thank you, Julie, for demonstrating and keeping older women active . You look amazing at your age!

[@BobandBrad]

You are so welcome!

[@christie4258]

Very inspiring & helpful. As a 50 year-old female wanting to stay fit, I would love to see more videos with Julie.

[@deblogan8966]

This is excellent!

[@jdy1054]

Could have done these 4 years ago. Knee arthritis too bad to do these. Can’t afford knee replacements .

[@namastemcl]

I’m 66 and do paddle boarding, cycling , yoga and my favorite weight training with kettlebells. Stay active a sedentary lifestyle will kill you.

[@emazey5044]

Love a Julie video! Well done, been laid up for a week, good info for when I get back to it! 🤗💕☀️

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks for watching

[@juliahelland6488]

Thanks again for sharing! 💯 ❣️

[@dc5600]

Just the kind of video I need now that I'm 70! Thanks Julie.

[@karenbuckner1959]

Thank you Brad and Julie! Julie, you look amazing! You have excellent posture and quad strength. La Crosse is a beautiful area... bluffs, rivers! Enjoy those bike rides (safely). Btw - we ❤ the mini massager we got from you! It will travel, too, when we do. Tell Bob "hi" for us all.

[@Evergreen945]

Good on you Julie! You look so young n fit!

[@Mary-f1k8t]

At a bit younger than your guest, im definitely noticing losing leg strength. Watching her make these exercises look easy gives me the inspiration to try and regain some of that strength. Good to be back with you, Brad. Hope Bob is doing well.

[@chazlevine1468]

Julie is impressive. Grinding out plyometrics like.a.30-something! Its one day at a.time. Keep active.and add more as you get stronger, strONGER and STRONGER!!!!

[@darlenerogers3218]

Both of my knees are bone in bone. Have any suggestions for strengthening my legs with these issues?

[@spoilers4me426]

As someone who always took having two arms and two legs for granted, keep your legs strong! I lost a quad after a broken ankle and being in a boot forever. I am still using a crutch to take some of the pressure off my knee. It gets to be depressing and demoralizing! I am getting there but it is taking time. Appreciate you ALL so much. Always so positive. Extra positivity going out to Bob. You are missed.

[@tonimoraful]

You look great!

[@jennyrenken8451]

73 here. I stay active. These are great in between our "Y" days! Plus I also ride & care for my horse. I've been walking 10,000 steps a day since August.

[@BobandBrad]

That is awesome!

[@Nancy4133nope]

This is a great video I wish you had one for strengthening your legs after total knee replacement

[@BobandBrad]

We do, actually more than one. Just search our channel. Brad

[@LJInnes]

Will this help me rebuild after two hip replacements, 😅 want to get rid of my cane and walker

[@janedmunds4218]

I appreciate the running explanatory narrative. Do you ever recommend one-legged squats?

[@juliekane7210]

I have to get back to wall slides and some of these lunges . I like the squat with the toe press up . Thanks Julie ! You look great 👍

[@elenileahy3022]

Can you do these exercises if your have knee issues?

[@donettesis6155]

Julie looks great!! She clearly does not have 63 year old issues with her knees. I have very painful bone-on-bone pain with lots of creaking, so I hope modifying these movements is effective.

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you for watching!

[@joseenoel8093]

But my inability to run away keeps me married, kidding! Happy pre-full-eclipse day everyone, next one's in 375 yrs!

[@ruthlowrey3962]

August 23, 2044 will be the next total eclipse visible in the US. How do you get 375 years?!?!

[@ceedeebeez1]

I heard it will be in 2044.

[@glendapolich7549]

Very good video!❤

[@BobandBrad]

Glad you liked it!!

[@MimiCraigTT]

Modifications would be helpful.

[@lucylemonte8780]

I’m 64 n was told that I have osteoporosis. I do walk every day with my dog. And have been working out with weights off n on . I haven’t done any workout for about a year due to shoulder surgery. So now I’m trying to get back to it to see if it will help.

[@marysuecarl7594]

Really sad that you didn’t show modifications for people with knee issues. There is no way I could do those lunges, etc

[@sheriburghart9345]

Why really sad?? Can't you just ask them to show you modifications? Doesn't have to be sad, unless you choose to be sad 4:06

[@BobandBrad]

You can try searching our KZbin channel for other video that better fit your needs.

[@kathleenunsworth4558]

Absolutely. I like to be active, and my physio puts my arthritis down to ageing . Obviously, everyone doesn't develop disabling arthritis with age!

[@bluevictory1010]

Just do a modified lunge, as in don't go down as far as Julie did. Even modified lunges have alot of benefits!

[@freedom7880]

@marysuecarl 🙄

[@nevaleestone3237]

Are lunges safe if you have knee issues?

[@ruthlowrey3962]

What if you don't have stairs?

[@commoveo1]

Thanks 🎉!

[@Veronica-vt9tp]

This was great. Thank you

[@brendasmith6983]

Was really active. Since I had a stroke it's really difficult to walk at times let alone anything else.

[@yksilotaso]

Jos about when you have bad hip or knee?

[@pattyb7082]

I don't know if anyone will respond, but I would like some advice for easing my way into exercises. I have been experiencing alot of muscle cramping in my thigh muscles. I seem to get the muscle cramps no matter how much or how little I exercise. Is there a good way to ease into the exercises and minimize cramps in my thigh muscles?

[@JJJettplane]

is there a chance you're dehydrated thus causing the cramps?

[@pattyb7082]

@@JJJettplane ..... Thank you.... I don't think I am, but I am taking in more water just in case. Also, I am almost 70 yrs so that is probably contributing as well.

[@judyp6639]

Great video - thank you!

[@BobandBrad]

Glad you liked it!

[@jrs2024]

Interesting, Brad seems tougher “coachy” with Julie’s demos, versus with Mike or Bob. 😅 GO JULIE! You look terrific & strong!

[@llmaxwell2508]

These are for people that already have plenty of strength. Most of us older people aren't at that point. We need beginner's exercises to help us get to where this already in shape lady is.

[@TheAshoka2009]

tips for Morton's neuroma please

[@cathyb5759]

So what are you doing a quack did your THR, and now you're an inch difference in leg length aka the unoperated side is a inch shorter, and he swears it's not. I'm back in PT again because I'm having so many issues and he says I'm doing it myself. I walk everyday I've been doing the PT exercises I've been doing exercises that y'all shown me and I feel worse than I did before my surgery. It's the squatting more than anything so I'm fixing to try these and hopefully they'll help And by the way when I do exercises I keep the shoe on on my short leg and no shoe on the other leg so I'm kind of even

[@freedom7880]

Thank you to Julie for encouraging us Boomers to do something, even if we aren't at her level of activity.

[@reneewelch7993]

What is your opinion of the vibration boards?

[@debbiemajorphotography7272]

These exercises are great for someone in perfect health! But not all 60+ year olds are!

[@bryanmccullar4701]

Quick question: I recently received a massage gun. It seems to work, primarily, by vibration. How should a massage gun work your muscles? Can you recommend one of your massage guns for a beginner?

[@BobandBrad]

our Q2 model is our best seller and I think great for a beginner. Brad

[@tonimoraful]

I can't do lunges. I have had 2 injuries. I can do squats though.

[@BobandBrad]

Squats work!

[@wilmafallon8712]

@jdy1054 . You still can ! No sugar, no high carbs , no bread, no pasta . You are completely healed, just like me ! Give it time ! Miracles do happen!

[@Jyn58]

I had a right knee replacement I 2016, and even though I had some therapy afterward but I still feel like I should be doing more to loosen it up a bit more. Do you have any exercise for that?

[@BobandBrad]

[@BobandBrad]

That's true!!

[@fragilechrissy]

I cannot do this exercises at all.I am 68 .She seems to have no difficulties and no pain.But I have and I think it is pretty useless to make such a video ,it is only for fit people.

I'm 68 and working on my legs in preparation to go skiing soon. ⛷

Thank you Julie... greatly appreciated...😊

[@tahitihawaiiblue]

Thank you Julie 🌸 it’s so important to stay active as we get older. This video is very encouraging and informative.

[@bettinabarry8423]

Hi Julie! I am 62 and teach ballet. Enjoyed this video! I have found that the past few years, I have not been as flexible in my knees, so I will try some of these exercises.

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks for sharing!! You can do it!

[@crystamarie4513]

Thank you for the video. Nice to have Juli, she's really healthy lady... Keep good work. Hope we could see Bob again even saying hi to his viewers. Fast recovery, stay healthy. 😊

[@lanabanana6849]

Such a useful video. This is exactly what we need to prevent the bigger problems at this age.

[@zippyustar6350]

Love these two together❤

[@jaindeau772]

I retired a few years early so I could get outside and move every day, after getting a taste of being more active during the COVID work-from-home years (saved two hours of commuting and got more sleep and more exercise). Now my days are centered around walking, hiking, cycling … I’m lucky that I got through sedentary office years and can still move.

[@kathleenunsworth4558]

Lucky lady. If she had arthritic knees she wouldn't be doing this!

[@anonz975]

Great exercise demo. Thanks Julie!

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks for watching!

[@nancysmyth9686]

Do these exercises help build bone?

[@bamafanLA]

Love having Julie doing the videos. Please have her do more with you!

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@DaisyIdes]

I want to suggest for those who are less stable to use your kitchen sink rather than chairs for keeping balance. It provides MUCH more stability. It feels completely safe compared to a chair that can wobble or trip.

[@BobandBrad]

Great tip!

[@leannehollenbeck2549]

This is a great video but hard to watch with the words on the screen and the icon for the product offered, this blocks the view.

[@BobandBrad]

The words only come every once in a while, I am wondering if you have the subtitles on? You can turn those off, they aren't actually on the video itself. The icon for any products can also be closed.

[@Splendid123456789]

Loved this! 🌻

[@annmariethomas9968]

Thanks, Julie. I’m going to do the workouts you’ve been demonstrating. Bob, you’re so encouraging and kind. 👍

[@susand3673]

Hi. I am trying to save videos to do the exercises. I can bookmark on the website but when I see videos on KZbin I don’t know how to find them on the website to bookmark them. I can save KZbin videos but find it easier to retrieve them when bookmarked. Any suggestions folks? I think the service you provide with the videos is great!

[@razravid123]

hey, after ACL and meniscus surgery i had a ski injury 1 year later, my LCL got extended very hard but not torn completely. after it healed and i got very strong again i can still twist my knee inside like a dislocation (but not) and im scared to come back to surfing, any suggestions?

[@user-vy6fk3rh6z]

Wow I wish I had your strength and fitness Julie!!!!! And I’m 10 years your junior. Always had weak legs and knee problems.

[@4nbop80user]

Excellent ! For overweight folks : same thing in a pool or… any alternatives to exercise legs, core, not weight based ?

Are you kidding ? Those lunges are sooo dangerous for many people in our sixties. Completely NOT for beginners ! Someone could get really hurt !!

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you for the feedback

[@sharonanderson9394]

I'm 60 and can do lunges. Start slow, use that hand for balance and do not go as low as possible. He does say that.

[@darlenedavidson1873]

Can you do this with arthritic knees?

[@edward-eh9nn]

Thank You to you and your "honey". I'm still plugging along after three years. Lost thirty pounds and am always looking for new exercises. I exercise every other day for an hour and walk for an hour most days. 77 years old and still kickin'. I will try the lunges and stair exercises, these will help me add some variety to my regular routine. I lost the weight (now 5"8" and 157 lbs.) and continue to exercise because of Bob (get well) and Brad for giving me the inspiration I need to continue. Thank you.

[@kristiarth2759]

Always love seeing Julie! Would you please do a video of her EXACT workout rountine of what she does to get ripped like that? She looks fantastic! Thank you for the consideration.

[@rg-mi5hh]

Good video ass always. Can't lunge forward due to severe oesteoarthritis, but I do what I can. I use a gazelle glider daily and it really helps with this. Little spurts of time throughout the day helps a lot.

Thank you Brad and Julie.. does Julie really use 25 lb weights on her lunges? Wow..
