Gentle Chair Exercises to Improve Range of Motion, Posture and Flexibility

[@kathleenlynch5003]

I like these range of motion workouts. They are especially helpful when I've been sitting too much from working on crochet projects, or doing editing at the computer. Thank you, Jules.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I'm glad you enjoy these workouts...I find the movements work well after a good workout, too. They definitely help to stretch out the body.

[@mosheofer]

Lovely session Jules. Appreciate.

[@anuradhab4481]

Hullo Jules, Your instructions are exceptional, clear, concise and so gentle. I benefitted from every stretch, and shall follow it up maybe, with a short strength w/o. It's such a pleasure to follow an intelligently put together session. Gratitude♥️

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you so much for your super kind feedback. 💖

[@lucius10]

Jules, your exercises are always very intelligently designed, varied and nicely demostrated. They are very helpful. Thank you very much.🌷🌻🌺

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you so much for the thoughtfully written comment. ❤️ It is definitely appreciated.

[@loonielaura]

I will be doing this today for sure. The heat wave is real and we don’t have A/C. This will be perfect since the body is warm already. Thanks for posting this Jules.

[@loonielaura]

It was perfect for today. This will be great for my Sunday Rest Day movement.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it, Laura. ❤️

[@janesmith-stage4755]

Your programs keep me fit and limber, even in the most stressful times! No herniated discs and I feel great!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks Jane.❤️

[@georgewagner6889]

Hi Jules: another great workout. You always make a great workout videos. You always demonstrate everything you do. Thank you for your hard work in making your workout. 😅

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you so much, George:)

[@marthasanchez932]

Thank You Jules. as usual gentle of effective. I did it twice and felt great I have energy to run a Marathon.❤

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow, twice! That's great, Martha. I love your marathon comment:)

[@TamarMyhrum]

I am so grateful for your videos! At first I was true blue to the first one I tried. Now I am branching out and really enjoying the variety. They are easy to stick with because your delivery is gentle and the movements are well explained. I am much more sure footed and stronger since starting just a couple of months ago. Thank you. You are making a huge difference in my life and sense of well being.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Oh, thank you SO much for taking the time to let me know your feedback. I'm so glad that you've been changing up the workouts and trying different ones. Variety for the body and mind is definitely a good thing:) In case you haven't seen my channel catered to chair workouts, I'll add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts

[@peggybroussard5942]

Love the workout especially since I have a stress fracture in one foot. Your chair exercises are perfect for me. Thank you for your time and devotion to us seniors!

[@ImprovedHealth]

I started this whole journey with YT to help seniors so I am absolutely thrilled when I read that the workouts are helping. In case I haven't told you, I also started a new channel dedicated to chair workouts: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts

[@emilyng6972]

A nice gentle workout! I particularly like your instructions of breathing and reminding of sitting straight. I enjoyed it! 🥰

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for the feedback, Emily.

[@margarethogan7745]

You are lifesaver once again Jules! I am operating on one leg after spraining my ankle. I was able to modify this class to cater for my injury. Many thanks Margaret

[@ImprovedHealth]

I'm sorry to hear about your ankle:( I'm impressed you still found a way to work out! Kudos to you!

[@anuradhab4481]

👏👏😊looking forward to doing this, postchores!

[@1beachwalker]

Perfect balance of gentle motions and the stretching. Just what I needed, after doing your wooden spoon exercise a few days ago. Wore myself out! With bad knees and a shoulder replacement, have to pace myself and be careful. But, I keep on going! Because, I don't want a frozen shoulder and it makes my knees stronger, right?! Your videos are always so helpful. Thanks again Jules. Have a good night. 💝

[@ImprovedHealth]

I'm glad this one worked for you...and yes, with bad knees and a shoulder replacement it is definitely wise to be careful with the exercises you choose. Listen to your body and only do what you feel works best for you.

[@malamaurer4043]

Closing out the day with this absolutely lovely routine. Jules you have absolutely spoiled me with your Absolutely lovely stretch sessions. Have a wonderful evening and see you in the morning 🌄 ☕🌄

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks so much, Mala. 💖

[@malamaurer4043]

@@ImprovedHealth Thank you for creating channel that is so versatile 😊

[@staceydroogas928]

Hi there Jules! Your imaginative moves cover all the body areas beautifully. Of course this is another well designed and guided routine--a bit more than just stretches...it was truly a mini workout! This is my second stretch for the day. I plan on several more since it's Sunday since I only do stretches not exercises on this day. Thank you much...Anastasia

[@ImprovedHealth]

I love how you give so much attention to mobility and flexibility. Super important and often skipped by most people.

[@vickipowers7041]

Hello Jules, I noticed it has been 9 months since I've done this workout, and it's still relaxing! Thank you
