[@JenCaruso]

Hi Lauren - Thanks for all the fun workouts! I have a suggestion - I know there are issues/limitations with rights to music, but since many of us who enjoy your channel are in their 40's (like me) I'd love it if you could switch up your music now and then to include 70's or 80's inspired instrumental music. It would really help motivate me and keep it fresh and fun :) Thanks and keep up the great work(outs)!

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

I’ll look into it, thanks for the suggestion 🤩

Excellent full body workout with a great stretching finale. I was able to use 5 lbs throughout the strength portion. Very happy about that. I shared these videos with my PT yesterday. She was very pleased with them. She modified just a couple of the Pilates moves for my right hip that is angry most of the time, but improving. It was replaced 6 years ago but still has pain. Thank you Lauren.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

My pleasure Kathy and nice job with the 5 pounds!!!

Thanks again Lauren, l woke up to a dreary and overcast morning, feeling slightly depressed. But instead of wallowing in that feeling l switched on this video and started exercising....and of course now l feel energised, warm and grounded....no trace of depression. I love your videos and your gentle encouragement ❤

Wonderful Zanette! Isn't that amazing that exercise can change your entire mood and outlook? I hope you have a great day :)

[@annetteking5526]

Hello, Lauren! It would help me organize the videos I want to repeat if the videos were numbered. I have had two knee replacements and several hand surgeries. I love your videos, especially those not on the floor. I live full-time in a luxury RV, the floor is hard, space is limited, and there is a lot of sitting. Thank you for the great workouts! It is so convenient to access the workouts via KZbin.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Glad you are enjoying my workouts Annette! You are able to create your own playlist of favorite workouts in your "library" find it in your settings tab.

[@annetteking5526]

Thank you, Lauren.

What a wonderful way to begin the new year! Your smile is contagious and I smiled all the way through! Thank you for your inspiration. I am 66 and I work out pretty much every day. I love including your workouts in my routine. I really love the wide variety of moves and types of workouts. I believe the variety is one of the keys to aging gracefully.

[@jeremyweil47]

My name is Jeremy and I am 76 living in Beersheva, southern Israel. I have been following your workouts for 6 months now and they are wonderful. My main problem is my lack of coordination, especially when the arms and legs are doing different things or going in different directions. The way you show is so elegant but I sometimes find it hard to work out what my legs and arms should be doing. Maybe you could give some more (or slower) instructions at the beginning. Anyway it is all very enjoyable and I thank you, Lauren, for your fantastic workouts.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Thanks Jeremy. Your coordination will get better with time and practice. Check out this video cardio video. The moves are simple and you can build on them if you like; kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGOZgYqpd9iGfLs
