Seated Workout at Home | Full body workout to see improvements | Chair Exercises for Seniors

[@margaretbarger1637]

I simply cannot live without your Seated exercise videos. Your knowledge of Seniors and their limited abilities is so evident in each one of your classes and your simple directions and tone of voice really add to these videos being so doable for so many of us that cannot do the walking videos. I am so glad I found your videos and I definitely will continue to do them as best I can. Thank You Jules for all your help.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow, thank you, Margaret. I have just copied and pasted your comment in my 'keepers' file (a document I keep on my computer of comments that are incredibly meaningful to me). I truly appreciate you taking the time to message me. 💗💗💗 x a million

[@Lojay_5]

Thank you for this great workout. I just turned 70 and I’m fighting the aging process.

Welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) in both seated and standing workouts, and categorize them all into the playlists. Just look for 'playlists' on the main page and scroll down to where you see the seated options. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts I now upload all new seated workouts to the new channel. Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out. Happy belated 70th and wishing you a great (and strong) 70th year!

My sister and I love these Videos. She lives in AL and I live in Texas. We set our phones up on facetime and watch your videos together . I love your tone, appreciate the direction you give. We are finishing up your 7 day and will do this video next. We appreciate you!

I love how you work out together from different states. Exercising together is a great way to spend time with each other. Love it!

You're welcome, Jules!

As a 32 year old with chronic pain 24/7, you have the best seated workouts on KZbin that are not too hard on the body! Looking forward to more gentle and beginner chair workouts! Love you! 💜

Great work out! I recently found your videos on youtube and they're excellent! I'm 42 and I have stage four breast cancer to my bones and recently had two screws placed in my pelvis so standing work outs are a no. But these are fantastic! Thank you so much!! I actually feel like I've worked out after these :)

I'm not a senior but I have weak ankles and an upcoming atfl repair for one of them. This is so encouraging as I usually walk as my baseline movement. It's exactly the pace and challenge I need to get back on track pre and post op!. I will definitely be doing the leg lifts vs the sit to stands post op for a while but grateful to do anything to get better! Thank you!

[@annemarieh7382]

Hello Jules: Usually I don't do seated workouts but it's raining today in LA and so I joined in. After a few minutes I got worried because my joints made squeaking noises. But then I realized it's my chair. What a relief. I think it's good to alternate workouts. Easy to do, you provide us with plenty of them. Thanks By the way, I emailed you. No answer. Two choices: you didn't get it or you didn't know it's me, your funny friend. Stay warm.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Well, thank goodness it was your chair and not you! I didn't get an email from you...I just checked my emails and Facebook. Try again:) [e-mail]

[@annemarieh7382]

I tried again. I found your email address on your website. I usually don't email from phone but I wanted to send a picture. Hopefully it works now.

[@nancynottage7255]

Outstanding!!! Thank you so much. Love all the exercises especially the upper back with weights. I felt very safe, not fearful that I was going to hurt my shoulders or back, by doing your method. Also very grateful to find a seated exercise routine that gave me enough cardio for my whole body and made me sweat.

[@MEw650]

Oh me, Julie, it’s been a long time since we’ve had to do a seated workout, but I’m sure glad we have that option. My knee is “acting up” bad today; it started hurting a few days ago, and now it’s in full rebellion. Must be our cold, damp weather we’re experiencing lately. I’m ready for it to really feel like spring. We’re anxious to plant our little garden. It will have to eat about 2-3 more weeks before the ground is warm enough and the threat of frost is over. Anyway, we got a good workout in.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Oh gosh, I wish we had 3 weeks before we could garden. Lots of snow here still. I’m sorry to read about your knee. Hopefully some gentle seated workouts will allow your knee to heal.

[@MEw650]

These are great, Jules. It’s wonderful that you incorporate seated workouts in your videos. I’m fortunate enough not to need seated workouts, at this time, but so glad you make them and I modify most of the exercises standing up which you make easy to do. Sometimes I just do routine all seated too, great workout either way. Thank you! 💞

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks so much, Dorothy. I wish the seated workouts would get 'out there more' because I know so many seniors would benefit from them. Hopefully over time they'll become more popular and used more.

Just found you, I need the chair as my hip, lower back, and knees are in bad shape,plus I have Fibromyalgia, but I have to keep moving even if I have pain after. I have trouble with the jogging tho due to sciatic and groin pain so I just lift my heels up and down. It is a great work out as It makes me sweat. Thank you!
