Im 59. I've been very ill and became weak and deconditioned. I'm walking stooped over and my legs are so weak that I can't walk very far. However life goes on and I just started a full-time job working night shift 12 hours at the hospital. I'm starting to do these exercises and others that you recommended. I can only do a few at a time but I'm going to work my way up. Thank you so much for these videos you truly make a difference in the lives of many people including mine.

After a lifetime of heavy physical work when I retired recently I started to take life easy but then noticed my legs and ankles started to weaken and were painful and the longer I was inactive the worse they got then I noticed your videos I started doing the exercises and I immediately started to notice the the pain disappeared I’ve also bought your books ,this has been a game changer for me I can now enjoy a more active lifestyle thanks very much Will .

Thank you very much to help us stay active and healthy. I plan on buying your book to learn better. May God bless you.

I make a point of never using my hands to get up and down from my chair and the sofa. We do that so often you are getting a workout through the day. For extra challenge do it super slow.

My father was only 5'6" tall, but always stood 'ramrod' straight, to increase his height! I'm 77 now, 5'9"tall, but retained a similar posture, all my life, which helped me look younger & avoid back & shoulder pain!

[@kwikstep-1]

The best exercise according to neuroscience is dancing.People who did a variety of dancing styles for at least 1 to 2 hrs a day, 4 to 5 times a week actually reverse brain changes that occur due to aging.The combination of exercise, mental stimulation and social engagement make dancing the best exercise. I just witness last Friday in a social dance setting, they announced for ladies to line up and danced with a Guy, celebrating his 94Yrs birthday. A lot of people said WOW 94Yrs old still dancing foxtrot, chacha, rumba swing. Etc.

[@movingforwardLDTH]

Love and appreciate your videos. A suggestion: at the end of each video, it would be great if you briefly remind us of what you’ve just taught us. For example: “So, spending a few minutes a day doing , , , , and will help you look younger (etc., etc.)” would be of great benefit to help your viewers remember your content. (It falls under the “Tell them what you’re going to teach them; Teach them; Tell them what you just taught them” rules of effective presentations. Thanks!!!
