I watched a portion of this video and said I was going to take a"holiday" from standing exercises since this one was designed for more vigorous movement. I realized that walking/marching is more difficult than standing!!! I amped up many of the moves and received not only a great workout, but one which provided indelible pictures of holiday activities, although I never had to slow down a reindeer driven sleigh! A lovely and ambitious routine, Jules. So many of the moves were innovative. Thank you much...Anastasia

Thank you thank you. This was so very good. I loved loved how descriptive you were in the type of exercises we were doing; very creative. Also thoroughly enjoyed the different music such as contemporary gospel, soul, ballroom, and many other genres. Definitely decreased my level of depression during the holiday season. I will be sharing with others.

Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. I know Christmas can definitely be a tough time for a lot of people and I truly hope exercising will help to boost the endorphins, and help both physically and emotionally. In case you haven't seen it, I started a second channel for chair workouts. I'll add the link for you so you'll have more variety in your choices for workouts: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts Alternative, you can find all of my seated workouts from both channels on my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com

Hi, We did the Christmas video in June.Everyone loved the full body exercises . Your videos have helped us to increase our class size as people invite their neighbors to join us.Please continue the 30 minute classes. We are interested in videos that help us to improve our balance using the chair for safety.Thank you for helping us to improve our strength and agility. Jannifer Woodson

Thanks so much for your feedback and for letting me know about your class size growing! I love reading that! Thanks as well for your request. In case you haven't seen my other channel dedicated to chair workouts, I'll add the link for you. My goal with that channel is to provide chair workouts, and also workouts where we use the chair for support/assistance. Since you work out in a group, let me know what else you would like in a 30 min video. All standing with the assistance of a chair? Or, a combination of standing and seated?

Thank you, Jules, for a very cool chair exercise. Even the laziest and sickest cannot have an excuse not to do this workout. I did all the exercises with weights, but I had the following problem: When doing some classic strength training with weights, after each exercise in a session that is repeated, for example 16 times, we take an obligatory break, for example 1 minute. After the next exercise repeated 16 times, we also take a one-minute break. We proceed in this way until the end of the session. Apparently, this is the only way we build muscle. If we don't take such a break, our workout will not build muscle, but will become a simple cardio exercise. The question is how to proceed with your session today. I took a break after 15 minutes. I think this is too little. If too little, how often to take breaks? Or am I thinking wrong at all, because without these breaks the muscles will also be "built up" in the case of a session like today's? What are your thoughts on this? If you find the time, please write.💛

Hello Jules: I liked to throw the snowballs instead of boxing. I don't bake cookies, so I stirred my pot of soup instead. Thanks for sharing the Christmas chores with us. What does that mean when you say at the end "See you all next year"??? Next year? It's only the 9th of December. Don't scare me. Something funny to add: My Fitbit categorized this session as "Swimming". No snow needed.
