After sidelining myself for a while due to a severe wrenched back muscle, I chose this beginner strength routine. It was perfect! I used 3 lb. weights except 5 pounders for the hammer curl, and successfully performed all the moves and exceeded the assigned reps. I couldn't wait to get back on track with you, Jules. I'm still taking it slowly, but thanks for being there!...Anastasia

[@ImprovedHealth]

Glad to hear that you are back and that you are taking it slowly for now. Welcome back!

[@anuradhab4481]

Thank you, your little cautionary tips are so helpful🙏👌

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you!!!

[@dorothynegri9924]

They are very helpful and she explains everything so well which helps too. Thanks Jules! You were made for this. 💞

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow, what a lovely comment, Dorothy. Thank you SO much:)

OK. Did it. Do not let that "beginner" label put you off. These were surprisingly challenging ... like the heal toe walk. I appreciate the attention to words matching the body motion -- as I do not know the motions and must pattern my body as it were. Thank you Where is "workout 1"? I will add these into the regular walking/interval training. I am so very grateful for these series. They, and you, are what I need at this time in my life.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow, you are on a mission! I love it. I am going to update my videos today to include other workouts in the description in the videos to make it easier for people to find links to other workouts. Thank you for letting me know you struggled to find them. Hopefully it'll be easier for you with the new links. In the meantime, here is the link to workout #1: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIrXoWVtd5Kcq9k

Thank you so very much

[@lauriephelan3391]

back again. Week 2 day 6. Heel to toe still a challenge (a lot of the exercises still a challenge...). I keep on keeping on. Thank you.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I absolutely love your determination, Laurie. 💖

[@lauriephelan3391]

Week 3, day 6...Thank you once again for an opportunity to train mental consistency and discipline. I noticed that I can put one ankle on a knee now without using my arms to haul it up. The real progress is that I am keeping on keeping on.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Yay! I love that you are seeing changes in what you can do. Congrats once again for coming back each day to exercise. 💖

[@MEw650]

This is is the one we did after our walking video this morning.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I am so glad you are doing the strength workouts. 💪

[@chrisperkins6403]

Sharing! 💪

[@ImprovedHealth]

You are so good with that.😉Thanks Chris!

Hi Jules, I never quite know what you mean by tighten your abs or arms etc. What if you have a lot of belly fat and can't feel your abs don't think you have any abs at all, can we still squueze tighten them? How exactly do you tighten them please?

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi Suzanne, I'm going to attach a link to one of my seated ab workouts. Give it a try and let me know if it helps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGTdZ3qMp5uKgpYsi=80mm-OPu0gew4IVj

[@Abilovesjack]

Hello, I am new to your channel. Question: how many sets for each excercise? Do I just do 10 each? Thank you

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi and welcome to my channel! For reps, you can do 10-15 reps...it really depends on your level and what you're able to do. You can choose to do more sets as well if you wish. Since it's a beginner workout, I don't have us doing too much, but as we progress through the workouts, we'll do more. If you're just starting out, I'd suggest starting with 10-15 repetitions and doing 1 set of each exercise. After the first week, you can do two sets if you have the time to do so.

[@Abilovesjack]

@@ImprovedHealth oh cool. Thank you so much. I like that you don’t drill us too much right away. I consider myself maybe intermediate, I can do 10 lbs reps. I just don’t know too many moves other than the usual bicep curls and such. Thank you for your videos.

[@heyitsrosie]

How many times should we do this exercise a week? How do the order of the videos work? Like week 1 for the entire week 1? Week 2 for the entire week 2?

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi! Ideally every 2nd day if you can for this video. You can do this one for 1-2 weeks, or even longer if you feel it's still a challenge and then move to the next video. There are two intro videos, and then there are new videos with 'week 1', and so on.

[@carmenross1077]

Do you have exercises for osteopenia? Is this the exercise for it?

[@ImprovedHealth]

Hi Carmen, for osteopenia and osteoporosis, weight bearing exercises are recommended to build healthy and strong bones. I'll be changing up the strength training each week. Follow along each week and you (and your bones!) will become stronger:)
