Morning Standing Stretch Workout // Activate your Muscles in your Pajamas!

Do you workout in your bathrobe or your pajamas sometimes? I do! This workout was inspired by those mornings when you are short on time, but want to squeeze in a quick workout. You don't need any equipment or even shoes. All moves are performed in a standing position and can be comfortably performed in whatever you are wearing. Enjoy and have a great day!

Thank you! Someone finally gets it. If I have to get the mat, do down dog and cat cow on my wrists..it ain’t gonna happen. Everything about this morning stretch is perfect. 🎉❤😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great Sherri! I’m so glad it’s a good workout for you 🤩

[@jodiejones356]

Love the soft demeanor and music, clear instructions; a great way to start the day. See you in the morning!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! Hope you have a great day Jodie :)

[@evikosma6909]

Great!! So I ll be seeing you every morning besides my end of the day!!!....As we say, first thing in the morning last in the evening😅❤

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Love that!

[@elysespielberg327]

great way to start the day

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Awesome! Have a great day Elyse :)

[@marlene6024]

Got half way through for today. That's a win for me right now 😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great! Hope you have an awesome day :)

[@Eve_M45]

Love this morning workout ❤ I can do this exercise not only every morning but any 20 minute break between work! Thank you 😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

perfect! You're welcome Eve :)

[@margaretek5350]

Good morning Lauren; loved this stretch workout first thing! It was perfect and just what my body needs on those mornings I am in a hurry! Thank you so much you are amazing! 🤩🙏☺️

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You're so welcome! I'm thrilled you love it Margarete :)

[@estherrace7184]

Just great. I really like your work outs. It's been hard to find something suitable for my friends and I (relatively fit women in their 50s and 60s) - most channels seem to be either targeted at young flexible gym bunnies or the properly frail/elderly. Senior shape is perfect, providing a good range of relevant exercises to suit us all. Thank you.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great Esther! Happy to have you and your friends working out with me :)

[@suzemiller5163]

Another good one. I try to do one of your routines 5 times a week , some,definitely harder than others!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

For sure. I like to offer something for everyone :)

[@ChittarupaYoga]

Keep trying things till you find what works for you. 🙂

[@susanwallace9768]

It's always been my goal to do a morning stretch before work and I think I found it with this one! Thank you!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! You are very welcome Susan :)

[@michellesmith-goldberg5080]

Great stretches! Good for anytime of day. Love your videos! ❤❤❤

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Yes! Thank you again Michelle :)

[@lindabtrimmer576]

Thank you, so glad I found you.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

I'm glad you found me as well Linda :)

[@kathyjonokuchi5387]

Thanks for this pj session. We have social May Gray overcast cool mornings now. So not needing to change clothes is wonderful.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You are so welcome Kathy! I'm glad you like it :)

[@franceboucher895]

I have tried a lot of exercises this year, but none were as fun but most of all I was able to complete them without hurting myself or skipping part of them because I could not do them. So thank you very much for this and for becoming part of my morning routine!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! I'm so happy to have you working out with me :)

[@christopherellinger9901]

Just what I need many mornings -- something to wake up my muscles and stretch everywhere. Thanks for making it! This morning I have time to do another, so I'll pair it with your chest and back workout. (Anne)

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! You are very welcome Anne :)

[@martinbrown7903]

Lauren.That is marvellous and since I always do your workouts before I get dressed in the morning, it is good to hear you call it the “ PJ workout”. Perfect. I’m sure a lot more people should do these exercises first thing in the day rather than later. Depends! Hope you have a good day.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful Martin! It's nice to hear that you workout in your PJs as well :)

[@kellypantaleoni5166]

How fun was this!!! I personally truly enjoyed this workout! I feel great now and ready for the day🎉 Thank you and a happy new week to you💛

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Love that Kelly! you are very welcome :)

[@liztownsend2026]

Loved this! Squeezed it in after static bike workout and before going back to work. Particularly like the shoulder rotations as upper back and shoulders can get tight after a bike ride. Love the variety you consistently upload. ❤

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! I'm thrilled you loved it Liz : Have a great weekend :)

[@user-sl2ew2oq5q]

Good morning and thanks for this. I'm really struggling to workout in the heat, even in air conditioning. Any other exercise modifications would be appreciated. I have Osteopenia in the hips and lumbar spine. Your guidance is so helpful.🙏

[@judithrowbotham273]

The morning routine is new to me , but I like it . I feel fully awake , stretched, and ready . Thank you

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! That's what I was hoping for :)

[@anitacruz3262]

I love this routine, specially when it is going to rain my body aches all over, so this is the first exercise I do after doing Pilates or weights bearing routines. Thanks so much!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! You are most welcome Anita :)

[@joeibassett9944]

I have been looking for a general stretch. This was perfect!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great to hear! Thanks Joei :)

[@annbanderson]

Another good one! I did my PT routine and then I did this one and I feel great.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! Thanks Ann :)

[@kingfisherdreams9845]

[@mariagrimes1896]

Adding to my morning Playlist. Thanks so much ❤

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You are so welcome Maria :)

[@karenkocher7003]

Thanks Lauren! Another great workout. Perfect to do before a busy day when a more strenuous workout would be too much. For me that means before the grandkids come over to play in the backyard with me and our giant schnoodle!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

love that Karen!

[@sigalzahavi1296]

I just found you and really enjoy your videos. I'm 57 and want to work on my fitness, bones and back. Looks like I found the perfect spot 😊 thank you very much for sharing your knowledge 🙏

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great! Happy to have you working out with me :)

[@paulabrock5232]

I really like this workout for those days when I just don't feel up to a lot of motion. This will be my go to workout on those days. Today I am recovering from a cold so this was perfect for me to do something when I don't have the energy yet to do more.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! Hope you feel better Paula :)

[@karenoehler1661]

Enjoyed this new class!! Will add it to my routine!!😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great Karen!!

[@leslieshaw4067]

Excellent session! All the planes of movement, all the creaking joints AND that ending for the win. Can’t thank you enough for this thorough wake-up call!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Glad you enjoyed it! You are most welcome Leslie :)

[@susancarreon6770]

That was perfect! I was literally in my robe, not wanting to take it off because of the beautiful cool morning ( oh how I love the coolness and early morning light of spring)! So when I saw your newest video with your robe on, it made me smile. Great morning workout. I did get warm midway through and took off my robe ; ) That last 4 stretch has also been a long time favorite of mine : ) Thank you, Lauren.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Yay! Thanks so much for the great feedback Susan and letting me know I'm not the only one working out in my robe!!

[@annettegenovesi]

This stretch workout was a real miracle. It totally engaged me; so much that I kept thinking that I'll check the clock so I wouldn't go past my usual ten minutes and suddenly it was ending! That has never happened to me before. This was a deceptively effective and amazing workout of the entire body that was so soothing. Thank you once again for a wonderful experience.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! I'm so glad you enjoyed it Annette :) You are most welcome!

[@crterwil]

Perfect way to start the day! Thank you so much!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

[@antoinettebayrakdarian7702]

Thank you for this Lauren 😊 A very much needed gentle stretch routine. After doing the perimenopause/menopause waking up the body workout (which was fab) (3 days ago, I found out it was a workout I need to grow into. I think you have a saying Lauren, to the effects of 😊everyone is different & everyone will need different recovery times & different levels & paces. Which you are fantastic & educated in giving us. ❤ (I clearly did too much ouch 😩 that’s on me). Thanks again for all your wonderfulness. 😊 Words cant describe how grateful I am for you & your channel. 🤩👍

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You're so kind Antoinette, I appreciate your support. Great job listening to your body and taking a break. This is a great recovery workout :)

[@sarastrover2209]

Loved it, thank you for the stretch ❤️🙏

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You're so welcome! I'm so glad you love it Sara :)

[@user-ld8ui8lx8k]

Great stretch! My beloved, standing. I did it immediately with pleasure, a pleasant tension in the muscles. It is not complicated, so it is easy to remember and can be done every day. Thank you so much Lauren, have a great day!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Perfect! Hope you have a great day as well :)

[@louisefarthing3346]

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Oh wow Edith! I'd imagine you are exhausted when you get home!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

[@bluejacket645]

Fabulous quick workout that covered all muscles from toes to head. Love the hip flexes and the neck and back stretches at the end. This is one that I suspect will start many of my days. Thanks so much!

This was perfect! Woke up in the hotel stiff and creaky. Didn’t want to put on workout clothes just yet but needed to get the body moving. Thanks! And I love your top! 💜

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Excellent! Hope you are having a nice trip Shari 🙌🏻

[@user-xk9nu1jg7u]

It's amazing how you touch on all the muscle groups in a short amount of time. I was short on time this morning, so this was absoutely perfect. And after my first round of golf yesterday, it was a perfect way to start my day. Thank you !! This will be one I do often.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great Dina! You are very welcome :)

[@cathysamuels4638]

Lauren, your videos have been a go to for me now for over 4 months! I look forward to your new videos each week! Sadly, I have had to take a step back, although not altogether, due to some issues with pelvic prolapse! I am seeing a physical therapist and learning some new techniques. Would love to see some strength training videos that are safe for prolapse! I think many of your videos could be modified for it for sure! Thank you for this stretch exercise in your bathrobe!!! Sometimes early morning that is the best!!!!😊

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Glad you are seeing a PT Cathy. Have you done this video? It's specifically for the pelvic floor and hips: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGm8mHiamLdkiM0

[@cathysamuels4638]
