Your mom doesn't look a day over 65! Exercising with you and us is proof that movement is great for longevity and practicing good healthy habits.

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Mom says HI and thanks for your sweet words! 👏"She says you are spot on how exercising is "great for longevity and practicing good healthy habits" is always a plus! Keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️

There are so many exercise videos for seniors on KZbin and I have tried many of them. But I have decided to stay with you ladies going forward. You make it easy to start slow ( l’m very out of shape ) and go at a pace that is safe, challenging, and effective but not a strain. Everything is clear and do-able and I like the soft music. Also, I’m 76 and really like someone near my age participating. Thanks “mom”! 😊

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Happy you found us and like the workouts too! As a young 76yo it's good that you are exercising to get back in shape! Your heart and muscles love ❤️it too! Mom says Hi and looks forward to seeing you at our next workout! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

I am 65 years old and up until a year ago I was able to walk good stand-up for a good period Of time and do daily house work and go grocery shopping. A year ago I started having lower back pain and then it moved up to my neck and shoulders. Eventually it moved on down to my knees and my legs and my buttocks. I had to start using a walker so that I could walk straight and stand up for a short period Of time but I still could not stand up long enough to do my dishes or do any kind of cooking. So last July in 2022 I came across your videos and I downloaded them I have been using them and after the first week of doing these exercises and stretches I could start getting around and doing more things without the Walker. I just want to thank you and your mom so very much for putting these on KZbin for people like me who can come across them and use them because they do work. What I would really like is if I could get a complete DVD set of your exercises and stretches...

[@yes2next]

Our sincere apologies for the delay in replying. For some reason, we did not see your message until now. Congratulations on your your fantastic comeback! We are so happy and honored to help you regain your strength. We have a DVD available that you can order here: yes2next.com/shop/p/jumpstart-to-fitness-dvd Keep up the great work! 👏❤️

I was surprised to find I missed this routine and even more pleasantly surprised to feel really great after completing it. I prefer longer poses, and this one was just perfect. I did modify the tricep stretch by pulling my arm back at the elbow without bending over as you've done after an exercise session. Thank you for this one, April...Anastasia

[@yes2next]

You are most welcome! Good to see you! 👏 Happy you liked the workout! Stretching is always a good ahhhhhhh feeling for your body and modifying it to give your muscles more stretching was good too!

Thank you April and Mom, I need those stretches before and after working out. I've been doing it in the morning for my back and the news is that it still hurts (maybe it's the mattress too) but less than before. 😊

[@yes2next]

Thank you! While it's good you stretched before and after working out, if you are experiencing some discomfort after doing so, please see your doctor.

Hello ladies , I've been doing your walking workouts , cool downs , tonight for the first time , 7 Effective Stretching Exercises . Despite my current bout of bronchitis , along with my slow recovery from my fall on April Fools , I believe it is necessary to keep moving at my age ( 73 yrs. ) . When I'm inactive , I become stiff & sore , but exercise seems to truly improve my well being . Each of you contribute encouragement , friendliness & joy . Your work is amazingly valuable for me so thank you for all of your efforts.🤩.

[@yes2next]

Thank you! Nice to see you! Happy you are back to exercising and doing so will help your body to get you feeling better and stronger too! 👏 As a young 73yo it's good you are exercising! The human body is meant to move and when it's not in motion the muscles get tight from the inactivity! But at times, rest is good for the body too! ❤️ Keep listening to your body and what it is telling you! You are doing great! Keep moving with us! See you soon! 👏

[@bethcrumbacker]

@@yes2next I was continuing your workouts all along , I just had not included my continued activity . I don't want to bore you , I only wanted to tell you - you have me hooked because I believe your wondrous instruction is just right for me ! Please accept my deep appreciation . I hope you have a peaceful weekend .

Question? I try to do this exercise 2 to 3 times a week, do I hit the like button each time? I have RA and don't have the same range of motion, but I am hoping that will improve each time. Thanks for the video

[@yes2next]

Hi there! Thank you for asking! It's awesome that you try to do this exercise 2-3 times a week! You need only hit the "like" button once. But feel free to comment as many times as you like to let us know how it's going! Keep up the great work! ❤️

What would be an exercise to strengthen calf muscles I get cramps there

[@yes2next]

Preventing leg cramps involves staying hydrated, maintaining a balanced diet rich in electrolytes, warming up and stretching before exercise, avoiding prolonged periods of immobility, and managing underlying medical conditions. If leg cramps become frequent, severe, or are accompanied by other symptoms, see a healthcare professional for evaluation and guidance. An easy exercise to strengthen your calf muscles is the heel raise: Sit or stand with your feet firmly on the floor, hip width apart. Raise your heels off the floor and hold for a count of 2, repeat 5-10 times. Do this exercise at least twice a week. If you feel soreness, rest until it subsides. Also, after doing this exercise, stretch your calf muscles -- Stand with one foot forward with your knee bent slightly; step your other foot back with your leg straight so your heel is on the floor; toes of both feet point forward. You should feel a stretch in your calf. Hold for 10 to 30 seconds and repeat with the other leg. You can place your hands on a wall or sturdy countertop or table for stability. We hope this is helpful.

I don't if this is a thing, but are there any stretches to help open up eustachian tube for those who have eustachian tube dysfunction? Doesn't hurt to ask😂

[@yes2next]

This is a good question, best answered by health care professionals. Here is a link to an article from the Cleveland Clinic that includes some at home exercises: my.clevelandclinic.org/health/body/22072-eustachian-tubes It's always best to see your doctor for the best remedies for you. Wishing you clear ears! 👂❤️

I had to take a little break from working out my little puppy of 13 years old had leukemia he couldn’t fight his little battle anymore so we had to put him to sleep day before yesterday. It’s very heartbreaking. I am having a hard time. I will get back to working out very soon. Love you ladies.❤️

[@yes2next]

We feel your sense of loss and send our sincere condolences. Losing a loyal companion of 13 years is difficult. Hope you will take the time to grieve and to remember he had 13 years of giving love to you and receiving your love. That's special. Take care. ❤️

Thought that looking left /right was not a good exercise as we do not stretch but twist the spine 🤔

[@yes2next]

Head turns can be a safe exercise, but they should be avoided them if severe neck pain or weakness in your arms or hands is experienced. Consult with your healthcare professional on the best exercises for you. Here is a WebMD report with more information: www.webmd.com/pain-management/neck-exercises-dos-donts
