UK 81yrs: still finding classes popping up on my KZbin sign in, from 2 years ago 😮 ... thanks Jules ❤

[@showie5855]

Lovely stretch!

[@patsyriggs3915]

UK 82yrs: ❤perfect to do after musical one 😅 I particularly like neck stretches. Thanks Jules ❤

[@monapargee9520]

Jules, I think this stretching routine ticks all the boxes for me at this stage in my life (74). It hits the major muscle groups, holds the stretch for the perfect amount of time and I feel very peaceful as I do them. The perfect ending is recounting those things or people for whom we are thankful. 10/10 in my book!! Thank you and blessings.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for your great feedback, Mona. I have lots of new stretching routines on my chair channel in case you're looking for more. I'll add the link (forgive me if I already sent it!): youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts

[@morgantam1]

Beautiful background! Thanks for sharing these exercises.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Yes, I fully enjoyed my long weekend in Vancouver and enjoyed taking in the view:)

[@pammitchell802]

Thank you Jules! Yes, the water view is stunning! (Being from Maine, I love the water!) Hope you had a great time at False Creek in Vancouver! Happy Monday to you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

It was a wonderful 5 days (18 months ago now).

Hermosa clase, gracias desde Argentina!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you!

[@lesliefox2272]

Thank you Jules for being my biggest motivator. Today I did your 15 Strength exercises, 20 minute dance and 12 minute seated stretch. When you ask to what I am thankful it’s the moment I found your page. My heart is full of gratitude for all you do for others. 🥰

[@ImprovedHealth]

Aww, a massive THANK YOU to you, Leslie. Thank you for taking the time to write your incredibly meaningful words.🫂And...congrats on making your workouts so well-rounded with strength, cardio AND stretching! That's great!

[@greenbeagle13]

I am soooooooooooooooo thankful I found this channel. I have horrible knees and have let myself go - got totally out of shape and overweight. These videos are simply AWESOME. Love them and will progress up to the higher level ones. 🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@ImprovedHealth]

Welcome to my channel! I have created playlists with varying levels so you can move up when you are ready. I hope these work for you! Let me know if you need any help finding particular workouts. ❤️

[@lindagrafal304]

Perfect Jules for those of us that can't get on the floor!! ❤

Thanks Linda:)

[@452000nolan]

I will be doing these stretches every morning for sure ….I have so much appreciation for all of your videos.

[@ImprovedHealth]

What a lovely comment to read this morning...thank you! I will be adding more seated stretches on my new chair channel if you're interested: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts

[@staceydroogas928]

I started my day with this stretch even earlier than yesterday! I seem to come away feeling the aftermath benefits of your stretches for quite some time. Thank you for permitting us a peek at your vacation panorama. The last minute or so of your view topped off a great start to my day! Do hope you loved your mini vacation. Thank you, Jules...Anastasia

[@ImprovedHealth]

I'm so glad to read that you're enjoying the various stretch routines. Glad that you enjoyed the view, too:) Vancouver is a wonderful place to visit.

[@strychnine49]

Enjoyed these stretches after doing 20 min cardio and 10 minute strength exercises today 👍❤

[@ImprovedHealth]

Great combo!

[@annesneed]

Jules...a great end to a busy day....the nice thing is my day starts at 4:30am but I can stop at anytime to the day. Did day 2 for the Interval Training series, we took our walk and of course did stair at the middle school, finished my area of the basement, so now I am ready to relax the rest of the day....thank you again for taking time to help us all be heathier...take care and God Bless....Anne

[@ImprovedHealth]

I think you're a machine, Anne! 4:30 am? Is that your natural wake up time?

[@annesneed]

Yes, Jules, that our wake up time everyday. It has been that way for years. Actually I used to get up at 3am when I worked. I had an hour to an hour and a half drive from where I lived, so I am an early person and so is my husband. @@ImprovedHealth

[@annesneed]

Hey Jules.....it's been a busy day again. Did my walk this morning, helped out at our kids today, came home ate dinner early, waited an hour, finished Day#6 Interval Training, I can't believe tomorrow is the day for this workout program, 4 weeks went fast. I lost about 4lbs and about 1" around my tummy, I really have to work on that but all in all not to bad. I see that there is another 7 day workout after this one, so I think I am goin to do that one unless you have any other suggestion. I so much enjoy doing these workouts, I just want miss them...thank you again so much for taking the time to do this for us....take care and God Bless.

[@ImprovedHealth]

I think it sounds like you are ready to move on to the next series. You can either take a few weeks to try other workouts or go straight into the next series. It’s up to you. If you choose to do other workouts, just ensure to pick two interval training workouts a week, two strength training, 1 longer cardio workout and the other days can be whatever you feel like doing. I hope that helps. Congrats on the 4 pounds! That’s a nice, realistic and healthy weight loss in a month that can be maintained well:)

[@annesneed]

Jules, this is the greatest stretch workout, I been cleaning the basement, at least half of my side of the basement, I did the ab workout and then this stretching it is just the best after all of that, it is just the right amount of time and stretches....thank you ever so much again....I will be back with you tomorrow in the 7-day Interval workout series, 2nd week, 2nd day...take care....Anne

[@ImprovedHealth]

You are one busy lady!

[@emilyng6972]

Hi Jules, my husband told me to give you a 👍. I have been doing this every morning after my swinging hands with mini squat. My husband saw me and stole your stretching demonstrations and did it himself before his regular daily qigong in the morning. He told me today that the effectiveness of the stretches is awesome to reduce his knee pain. He said that stretching is important as you said in your latest video of stretches every night. Thank you, Jules👍🥰

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Emily. I appreciate hearing that your husband enjoyed the stretches.

[@annesneed]

Oh my goodness.....after doing some yard today, because it was so beautiful outside I felt as though I need to do some stretching and this did the trick, I feel so much better I did my regular workout this morning, the 20 minute workout and took a 55 minute after, so this is a great stretch workout, I will be doing this one quite often. The scenery in the back round is beautiful...thank you for sharing that with us......have a fabulous rest of the weekend....God Bless....Anne.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks Anne! I was on vacation in Vancouver when I recorded this video.

[@chrisperkins6403]

This was wonderful. Thank you so much for bringing us with you on your mini vacation to Vancouver.

[@ImprovedHealth]

It was definitely a nice trip. Vancouver is absolutely beautiful. I lucked out with $143 flights each way during the pandemic...I couldn't pass that up (normally costs 3x that amount).

[@terpstrak]

Did this stretch after day 2 of interval and strength training. Wonderful!

[@ImprovedHealth]

So glad you understand and value the benefits of stretching.

[@charliegowing9471]

Hi Jules.....almost at the end of the 2nd week of the "Walk the weight off" workout....since we only had a 20 minute workout today, again I added the Ab workout and of the Daily stretch to this, it also a great combination. I did walk this morning and it was good, almost got caught in the rain. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend, be safe and God Bless....Anne

Good Morning Jules.....I made through day #3 of the Interval workout, also did the 15 minute core workout and finished with this stretch workout. I did do the other 2 stretch workouts a couple of days ago but I really like this one the best. I see you have a couple of other video workouts, they look like fun, I can't to try them. I did get to walk today, it looks like we are going to have some good weather in the next few weeks, I can't to get outside and work in the yard. I do hope you are getting some good weather also....hoping for you a blessed and beautiful day....God Bless....Anne

The only exercises I've been doing are the ones on your channel.
