10 Minute Seated Exercises for Seniors, Elderly, & Older People

[@katherineweber8890]

I'm 79 and live alone and 18 months ago decided I had to do something to improve my fitness or get ready to go to a nursing home. I have fibromyalgia so have to cope with widespread pain, weakness and fatigue. Plus I was also very overweight. Since that time I have lost 60 pounds and am moving more easily. I have been doing some of your exercises up to 4 sessions a day. My ability to stand from a chair has increased a lot. I can now do 10 sit-to-stands at a time easily without chair arms or hands on thighs when at first I wore out after just two with chair arms. I still have occasional balance problems but that is improving also. My ability to do household chores and yardwork has increased immeasurably and with much less pain. Thanks to both of you for all you do. And no, don't mute Brad. I love listening to both of you. Hugs.

How long before it was easy for you to do these exercises?

[@tonjajones4634]

Fabulous! I have Fibro too so I KNOW what you are dealing with, and I am so happy for you concerning your achievement. Keep up the great work!

[@robertap.7544]

Don’t mute Bob! His delightful ad-libbing is what helps to make you two so much fun to workout with…..thank you both so much❤❤😊

[@sextoncardew903]

Dear BOB/Brad, I am 87, and can do most of the exercises, but sometimes I have to stop. Please keep repeating them. My body will appreciate them as I get used to them.

[@sikhabanerjee6908]

Dear Bob/Bab good morning I am 71years old lady with pacemaker, my question is can I do these Exercises? Please answer 🙏

[@nancypaquet2403]

The best part is just listening to your funny banter while distracting your brain from the obvious discomfort (if any); you two are the best!!

[@vanetamorrison2972]

God sent you both to me this morning. Doing these exercises with great joy. Good work, both. Blessings and good health. 🥰

[@michellewilliams1294]

I found you guys so entertaining I thought even my husband will do these exercises! We both have bad backs and I also have a neck issue. Will be starting to do this either tonight or tomorrow! Whenever I can get him to sit down and actually do it. He did watch the whole video with me and okayed it!

[@BobandBrad]

That’s great, hope you guys enjoy!

[@eveclark1541]

I love you guys... Just trying to decide if I'm senior, elderly, or an older person... I guess I'm all three. I really need these.

This was fantastic for me at 66. Great Bob and Brad. God bless you all the time. You are great physical, philosophical, physiological, psychological personalities useful to all age groups of the Society all over the world. Your sense of humour is enviable.

Yesss! We do need Brad input 24/7!!!

[@TheLeftHandedDesigner]

Brief, fun, and doable! Thank you, Brad and Bob.

[@contessajones5619]

Brad is a perfect foil for you Bob! Keep his mike on but increase the volume 😳Thank you for all of your helpful videos. PS I wanted my younger family members to do these but once they saw for “the elderly,” they refused to watch. These are excellent exercises for students or people stuck in conference calls all day due to Covid.

[@loracollins7281]

These two men are just what we need!! Brilliant, funny and really know what they are talking about. Love them both!!

[@stanleyvijayakumar]

Yes really

TY. I love the banter between you two. Makes it fun.

[@Jim-bh7gs]

Since the 2020 "lockdown", I have become the most extreme chair potato and it is damn hard to get back in motion. So. THANKS for this demo and reminder. I am 77,live alone and got very,very good at the quarantine stuff. Even tho it is long over.

[@Ladyshan50]

I’m so grateful to the Lord for you both! Glad I found you. I need to get my strength back from being so sedentary from pain. I have been going to a physical therapist but all I do is stretch there for 1 month now. I need to get stronger too.

[@rebeccaarmani38]

Great workout guys Thank you so very much.

[@geopicalesco4989]

Leave Brad alone. You both are great. The sum is greater than its parts. Keep up the good work.

[@lindawinters6285]

You guys are TOO funny! No, never "mute" Bob! I am only now getting in my senio exercises since I discovered you two! God BLESS! ~Lyn W 💖

[@amykubilis2587]

Hi Bob and Brad My dad is 85 and he really enjoys your videos. We call it ‘ Bob and Brad time” I’m not sure if you ever do shout outs - My dad would get a kick 😜 out of it. His name is Jim from Boston- may you can say ( I like red too). It’s from his favorite car commercial Thanks Have a great weekend

[@Damethefirst]

No muting, I love both you guys!!

[@aletagudelski6414]

Thank you guys! You are the best! keep your wonderful videos coming. That is how I begin my day as a 74 year young senior. Blessings for all you do for us.

[@taylorbrooks2480]

Thank you for all your senior videos. It is helpful that you advise about conditions like arthritis, osteoarthritis, etc. that affect us. I have been to many PT’s over 20 years and see you as knowing what you are doing and are responsible about presenting your information to us all. I tell as many people as i can about your videos.

[@jeanettecampbell5205]

Classic Bob and Brad...love this ! This chair routine is excellent...thank you so much, Guys 💜

[@fuzybubbles]

Thanks guys! I had a leg injury last month and can't stand or walk at the moment so this is perfect for keeping the rest of my body from turning to jelly. Keep up the good work, we all appreciate your help

[@neverXgrowXold]

PLEASE DON'T CUT OUT BRAD'S TONGUE!! Hahahaha! You guys are sooooo funny. I have the same humor as Brad. He doesn't TRY to be funny, it comes naturally to him. I want to thank you both for your videos. I'm a 57-yr-old female & I've always been active. I climbed trees all of my life, climbed over fences, got on the roof to clean gutters... I just now started to slow down on my energy. I tried to climb a tree a few months ago & I started feeling kind of nervous, like I was going to lose my footing. So I got down & haven't tried again since then. I've been doing balance exercises with your videos & I've seen an improvement. I'm not going to be able to climb a tree just yet, but I will be ready soon because of your videos. Thank you soooooooooooooo much for giving me a few more years to climb trees!! (I know, it sounds weird, "Why would an older lady want to climb trees??!") It's because I've been doing it all of my life & I'm not growing old gracefully, I'm fighting it tooth & nail the entire way!!! Thank you guys! Kendra :)

[@cindy9155]

This was a very good set of chair exercises, thank you! This will work well when trying to get some movement in during the day. Brad's socks with the red feet and toes really helped in watching the feet move! Yes Brad I noticed and appreciated your socks, and Bob's white toes also: the audience could easily see what the movements are. Your question: no surgery....listening to your back and forth comments is one of the extra perks that make watching you that much better, a few smiles and chuckles! Keep up the good work!

[@resourcefulqueen5109]

Thanks for the exercises. Yes, I like to hear both of your comments. Go vitality!

[@lharbour2854]

Brad may have been muted at the end, but I was really grateful that the overall volume in this video was normal again. Thanks!
