love this workout and yes I did love the scenery too

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Me too!! Such a pretty place!

[@30dvora]

Thank you💜

[@lilylove1198]

Oh, my goodness Meredith....thank you for this stretch and more importantly, thank you for sharing Sedona, Az., with us, thank you, thank you, thank you. I do your other seated workouts; I so enjoy the challenge yet doability, don't think that's a word, but we'll make it one ;-) I work 10-12 hours a day standing and cleaning. I tweaked my back, bummer, but at least I have access to these wonderful workouts. Thank you, you're a very good teacher.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Thank you so much for the comment! I am so privileged to help, I am so happy you found our channel and my workouts are “doable”;) We will make “doability” a word...I like it:) Take care of your back!!! Take care and thank you, Meredith

[@ghweldon11]

I got back to the stretches after the pandemic took me away. I'm in need of these more than before to stay limber throughout my day.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Yes, stretching daily is so good for you! Keep up the great work!

Hi Meredith. What a great way to enjoy the outdoors with a good stretch. I love your clear and easy to follow instructions. Thank you so much for sharing. Looking forward to the next session. Mary, Vienna Austria

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Thank you so very much! Thank you again for the support:) I look forward to our next session together too! Take care, Meredith

@@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith Hello again. I loved this so much so, as we're so many hours apart, I did it again today :) whilst waiting for your live broadcast later on. A question: is it better to stretch before or after a workout? (or does it really matter?) Thank you! Mary, Vienna, Austria

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Hi Mary! Light stretches before, and deeper stretches after the body is warmed up is best:) If it is a day of only stretching, start light as the body warms up, then get deeper into them. I was so happy you joined today's Livestream!! Take care, Meredith

[@MR-kn3so]

Senior Fitness With Meredith Thanks for the tips - I’m going to build these into my morning routine 💪🏼. And I love the Livestreams which start at 5pm in Vienna, Austria. ❤️

The seated relaxing stretches felt great after doing my normal dumbbell, playground ball and resistance band workouts. I am ready to take on the day. Thank you.

Sooooo relaxing stretch. Just did your salsa cardio video. This is perfect after that cardio. This will help me get a good quality sleep. Thanks! Meredith.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

I am so happy you enjoyed the workout, and it relaxed you sooo much! Especially after cardio, and you doing the Salsa:) Take care, Meredith

Hard to stretch with all that beautiful scenery but I soldiered thru and it was worth it. Thank you from Charlie in Syracuse NY.

Wonderful RedRock vista. Sedona is our favorite place for a day trip. Recently we drove up, enjoyed lunch at the Wildflower Bakery and Cafe and back to the valley.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

It is beyond beautiful!! I agree Phyllis!

[@readingteacher1168]

Thank you for the video. I tried it this morning.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Thank you Deborah! I hope you enjoyed it, and the beautiful landscape:) I appreciate your support! Take care and stay healthy, Meredith

[@carolineashman8007]

This is a brilliant stretching routine. I have been doing this every morning for the last 2 weeks, it’s now how I start my day (even before breakfast). My body feels so much better, not just at the time of doing it but for the rest of the day. I would certainly recommend it to anyone who suffers with stiff joints or who like myself have polymyalgia rheumatica. I know we have need exercise in all forms to keep healthy but I really believe that stretching is so important to do to get the best from all other forms of exercise we do. This completely seated stretching routine is the best . A huge big thank you Meredith was for giving us this doable in time and content routine. X❤️

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Thank you so much Caroline! I too believe that at the foundation of a great exercise plan is stretching and flexibility work. And I am so very happy that you enjoy this routine. Great stretches and scenery!:) I appreciate your recommendation and continued support so very much! Thank you!! Take care and keep up the great work, Meredith

I love the background scenery!! Very beautiful!! Love the the breathing and stretching techniques !! I feel more relaxed and in peace !! Thanks Meredith!! I definitely still need to learn how to hip henge properly . I have very tight hips and gluts!! Need to work on this. Thanks again!! 🙂

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

It is beautiful there:) Keep up the stretches and you will loosen up through the hips, hamstrings, and glutes. You can do it!

[@carolineashman8007]

Thank you for your advice Meredith, have just done this after doing some housework and it felt good. I will try doing this first thing every morning (or as many mornings as I can) and see if it helps. Once again thank you for your advice. X❤️

[@a1gr8biz]

Hello Meredith. I have a question. I'm a 67 yr old male. I'm obese, but not really restricted by anything other than age and weight. I started last week with your "Senior Fitness-Low impact Cardio Workout". Then I found this "Stretches for Seniors and beginners". My question is, should I do this Stretches program BEFORE the Low Impact Cardio, or After? Or does it make a difference? Or is there another "warm up or cool down" routine I should be doing? I appreciate your advice.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Hi Trenton! Thank you so much for the comment! I am so proud of you for starting with the low impact cardio workout, and now stretches. My suggestion is to do the stretches after the cardio. The cardio starts slow so it will warm you up. Then cool down with the nice stretch!!:) Please remember we are here for you whenever needed!! Take care, Meredith

[@a1gr8biz]

@@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith Thank you for the reply. I was doing it right. You confirmed what I thought. Keep us the good work. Trenton

such a woe scene

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

It’s beautiful in Sedona!

[@joannachong9395]

Hi Meredith, love the scenery, I hope you had a good holiday. I like stringing your short videos together and find them very efficient in the use of time. However, one day I didn't end with a proper stretch and learnt the hard way that it was not a good idea. I know I know, you are always reminding us about the importance of stretching, suffice to say I have learnt my lesson. Any chance of a standing version of your stretch video?

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Hi Joanna! I really like how you string together the workouts to make your own All Over Strong workout:) That is wonderful! And, yes, I know you know the importance of stretching after...especially now! I will put a standing version of stretching onto the list...see what I can do about that:) Thank you again for the continued support! And suggestions! Take care and continue to stay healthy, Meredith

[@phyllisborchardt4091]

Hi Meredith Have been staying home and resting. Noted that you have added some 20 mInutes or less segments. I will need to get back for the coming weeks prior to my surgery. Will need to take it slow as I feel pressure in my chest. Warm weather not my friend these days. Phyllis

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Hi Phyllis! Just like you said, take it slow and listen to your body! You will get to where you want to be, just slow and steady! Take care, Meredith

[@phyllisborchardt4091]

Thank you. This heat is especially taxing these days.

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Yes it is!! Very hot here in AZ right now! Try to stay cool, and keep your core temperature down!:)

[@bathshuaspooner8323]

Thank you for this seated stretch! I am rehabbing from a hip replacement and this is a great way to start bringing myself back..

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

Hi Bathshua! I am so happy you found my channel and this stretch is a good fit right now. I have many more that will be good during your rehab, especially the seated with resistance bands. Help stretch and strengthen the hips! I am proud of you for getting back into it, slow and steady!! Take care and stay healthy, Meredith

[@bobdylanfan1952]

she talks too much!!!!

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

I appreciate your comment…I do talk enough to make sure the viewer does a movement correctly, as to not get injured and to make sure they are working the correct part of the body. All to benefit my amazing viewers who enjoy my talking and instruction. I hope you find an instructor that suits your tastes. Take care! Meredith

What a gorgeous place to stretch in-- I didn't want to close my eyes because I love Sedona. Great comprehensive stretching routine, I did a cardio and a resistance band video this morning, so this was exactly what I needed. Thanks!

[@SeniorFitnessWithMeredith]

It is so beautiful, thank you so much!!

[@carolineashman8007]

Can’t believe it’s been 6 months that I’ve been doing this routine pretty much every day. It’s the way I start the day and boy does it make a difference, it gives me an all over body stretch and my body is far less stiff once I’ve done it. It would be so easy to say my body hurts too much I can’t do it , if you can get over that mind set give it a go even if it’s hard to do at first it will do wonders to how your body feels and if your body feels better your mind has a I can do attitude instead of oh I can’t do that. I would definitely recommend this stretching routine. Thank you, thank you, thank you Meredith, you are changing peoples lives for better. Xx❤️

Oh Caroline, that just made my day! I appreciate your comment and support more than you realize! I’m so lucky to be here for you, and remember I’m always here when you need me! Thank you and take care, Meredith
