Coordination is important for many reasons including:
✅ Fall prevention: Good coordination helps you maintain your balance and react quickly to prevent falls, reducing the risk of injuries such as fractures and head trauma.
✅ Activities of Daily Living: Coordination is essential for performing basic tasks such as dressing, bathing, cooking, and grooming.
✅ Mobility and transportation: Coordination is crucial for safe mobility, whether it's walking, using public transportation, or driving.
✅ Social engagement: Many social activities, such as dancing, playing sports, or participating in group exercises, require coordination.
✅ Cognitive benefits: Engaging in activities that require coordination can stimulate cognitive functions.
✅ Overall physical health: Maintaining coordination through regular physical activity can help you stay physically fit. It can also improve cardiovascular health, muscle strength, and flexibility, leading to a better quality of life.

What I love about this is how you help your mom do the exercises. At 87, my mom has many of the same difficulties, and many younger trainers just don't understand the challenges of extreme age.

[@yes2next]

Thank you for your kind words! It would be terrific if a senior could exercise with the tempo and energy level of the "not so senior" population! But seniors can exercise with moves tailored to their abilities and energy level! Hope your young 87yo mom will join my mom in doing the workouts! Exercising is one of the best things you can do to keep your body strong! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@naseemali3980]

Did it again today and was much better. The interaction between you and your Mom makes me laugh. Especially when she said are we not done my brain is tired. Well done April and Aiko in keeping us physically and mentally fit and doing so with laughter.❤😊

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Good to see you! Happy you enjoyed it and doing it more than once is the best way to get your coordination working in top form! Nice work! 👏 Mom says Hi and thanks for your sweet support! She says to keep it going and to keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@bethcrumbacker]

Exactly what I needed , my brain needs at least as much as my body & this is the 1st time I've ever been exposed to helping my not young brain . Fun & creative , I really like this & thank you each as usual .

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Good to see you! Happy you enjoyed it! It's always good to get the brain cells working! They deserve some fun mental TLC! It's also a good test for your coordination and to do it often improves the connection between your brain and your muscles! That's what it's all about! Good to see you moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@hb4299]

Thanks for doing this for us - what fun! Always enjoy a good challenge! Could you create a different one for about 20 minutes please - perhaps a standing one next time? It would add another level of challenge if you had us repeat a string of certain words while doing the exercises too. I appreciate all the work that you do on behalf of us seniors - - -

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Glad you liked it! Working our brain cells is always a good thing to do! 👏Will add your good ideas to the list, which while challenging, they would be fun to do too for our brain cells! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@dianehudok5811]

Thank you! That's so nice to know! Love ❤️working out with you too! Let's keep it going! 👏Keep moving with us See you soon! ❤️

[@angelakitchens159]

Fabulous job ladies. I so enjoyed the humorous sides from both of you in this video. It was so good to see Mochi and feel the vibes, I was about to experience by participating in this exercise. April, the patience you expressed throughout this presentation with your mom, was so sweet. I can remember how my own mom had issues with the left-right body movements and being able to do two or more things (activities) at the same time (multi-tasking). Kudos on another job well done. Later, Angela

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Good to see you! Glad you enjoyed the workout! Always good to work the brain cells! 👏Coordination exercises help the brain and muscular connections to stay strong plus it's fun and challenging too so the brain really gets a workout! Mom says Hi and yup, she needs to keep at it too! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@deborahb6294]

I love this workout!!! This was fun and your mom is the cutest!!

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Glad you liked it! 👏Always good to work on coordination skills! Mom says hi and thanks for your kind words! She is always trying to improve her coordination too! Practice and practice are the key. She hopes you can keep practicing with her! YAY! 👏Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@staceydroogas928]

The oddest Y2N EVER, but vitally important and fund to do. Don't you know that I had the hardest time (and still do) with the nose/ear switch! I'm pretty well coordinated because I used to dance and still do. However, I got a taste of what Mom experiences with her coordination when I tried to do that nose/ear switch. Mom, you're a great example of bravery when displaying your challenges to a vast audience. April your personality sparkled!

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Good to see you! The workout is a good test of your mind and body's coordination and it's surprising to find that it's challenging too! Your dancing skills certainly do help with your coordination which is good! The nose/ear switch is a move that Mom remembers from when she was in school a long time ago! Time hasn't changed her ability to get it right! 😉 But practice makes perfect, and she will keep at it! Besides it's good for the brain to get some exercise too! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@BBurns-vg9om]

Oh bless,Mochi ,he is just adorable! He loves to be part of your training 😅. Girls thank you so much for this work out. Bless you both. Bridget from the UK.❤

[@yes2next]

Thank you and cheers to you in the UK! Glad you enjoy the workouts! Keeping your heart and muscles strong is important to do! YAY! Nice work! 👏 Mochi 😻says Hi and yup, this time he wasn't 💤💤💤and joined the workout! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! Cheers! ❤️

[@MayandPoppy]

I'm 24-years-old and autistic. I frequently struggle with coordination, so these exercises should be beneficial for me! 👍

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Glad you are doing the workout to help your coordination! As a young 24yo it's good to exercise and strengthen the link between your brain and muscles and thereby improving your coordination. Consistency and patience are the key! Love ❤️your spirit to do so! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

[@genevaburnside8441]

Good for the brain. Thanks

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Glad you thought so! The coordination workout is a great exercise to keep your brain in sync with your muscles! Getting them to talk to each other takes practice and more practice but there will be a moment when it all connects, and your brain and muscles are sending the right message to each other! That's the way to do it! YAY! 👏Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon!

Another banner day for me with 3 "new to me" workouts combined with a couple of old favorites! I started my day with this one (new to me/ntm) to wake up both my body and my mind, then did your wall exercises (ntm), then two of your 5-minute upper body workouts, back to back, and finished with one of your 10-minute HIIT workouts that I hadn't tried before. I plan to take it easy and stick to walking outside over the next couple of days but hope to be back to working out on Wednesday. 🙂

[@yes2next]

Wow, you're crushing it with the variety of workouts! 🙌 Keep up the awesome work and enjoy your walking days too. See you Wednesday! ❤️

Aiko's snap problem is because aging wrinkles the face and smooths thumbprints, so unfair! This is why it is hard to twist open bottles because of lack of friction. Important to master cross--body coordination for self-defense: if street muggers see seniors walking homolaterally then they know that senior is uncoordinated. and can easily be pushed over and robbed
