Wow awesome routine! Arms are tingling! Thank you Jules ! Like that we are doing plank and push-ups as so many female trainers do not incorporate these! Much appreciate your support and encouragement and style! 🙏🙏👏👏

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for your kind feedback, Margaret.❤️

[@valeriezick4459]

The arm work was so good in this video! A little birdie told me I'm getting heavier weights for Christmas so will look forward to that! Thanks Jules!

Yay! That’s fantastic news!

[@anuradhab4481]

That was short, sweet, and effective...can feel the throb in all the muscles worked. Thank you! Have a great day yourself, Jules, and see you tomorrow, for the finale of this series😊

Low energy day, so it was a struggle. I couldn't go as low as I normally do on the push-ups, but still she came, she conquered, and she 😊 As always, thanks Jules ❤

I had one of those days today as well. Tomorrow will be a better one!

Hi Jules: I really enjoyed this workout. I feel so good after my workout. Thanks for sharing. 😅😅😅

[@valeriezick4459]

This was a good one, Jules. My arms need all the help they can get but they are getting stronger! Thank you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Getting stronger one day at a time…give it time and I think over the next few months you will really start to see significant changes. I explained steps forward in more detail on my Facebook page (if you use FB).

Hi Jules, you are the most motivating coach I have ever seen. Moreover, you are kind and nice, so I could follow you every day. Many thanks

[@ImprovedHealth]

You are so kind, Helga. 🫂

When I'm feeling worse about myself in the morning, I do a quick search online for a workout with you and my mood improves instantly after exercising. Thank you, Jules for your work for us.💛

So glad you are doing the strength workouts!

Done plus Beegees .

[@lindakreitzer2015]

I went back to a video from a while ago for 10 min of cardio after the strength training. I really enjoyed the cognitive workout as well. Having to coordinate arms and legs in various multiple movements is a good workout for the brain as well. Thanks for your varied efforts to keep us all healthy

[@ImprovedHealth]

Glad to read you enjoyed and did both cardio and strength workouts (and the brain challenge).😊

Another good arm workout! Thank you, Jules

Thanks Sue!

[@marie-theresehayes6875]

Not done this yet.....doing later today but just wanted to say I went to town this morning and for the first time in ages when I was walking around my legs felts so much better. Not sore and heavy. My posture was better and I felt so much lighter on my feet. I have for the last few years felt stiffness when walking around and that has gone. Can only put it down to building stronger muscles. Thank you!

[@ImprovedHealth]

Wow, you should see the massive smile on my face right now! Gosh, thank you SO much for sharing that news with me. That makes me super happy for you. Thank you!!!🙏

I love that you are already planning exercise in preparation for a vacation.💪

[@allysonewart6643]

Late to my workout today due to housework lol was such a lovely day here I did a bit of a spring clean. Downside was not much left in the tank but I followed March schedule and did this strength one then the fab cardio for 10 minutes. This is an arm killer lol. The March calendar has been just best thing. I absolutely take my hat off to the v v v kind, thoughtful lady that did it, and if she's doing April I cannot wait. Xxx

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for letting me know that you’re finding the calendar helpful. She did the gentle/beginner calendar for March and I put together the intermediate one. She’s unable to do April but I will try to get both done when I get time:)

[@allysonewart6643]

I'm happy to use January or February or even repeat March. It's a great way to exercise when it's all planned out for you xx

[@lwatlinkline]

I'm getting over a sore throat, but decided to work out anyway; it went well. I'm definitely in a better mood now. Thanks!

[@ImprovedHealth]

I love how exercise does that to us:)

Day 24 ✅ short but challenging 🔥💪🏻❤️

[@ImprovedHealth]

Thanks for the feedback, Helen. 🥰

[@marie-theresehayes6875]

That's todays workout done. I really enjoy upper body work. I need to improve my upper body strength. I was putting my mum to bed this afternoon(she is 94 and goes to bed really early) Her mobility is not great so she needs help settling in bed. She turned to me and said "you are really strong". I wish it was my strength and not the fact that she is dangerously thin.

[@ImprovedHealth]

Would she be able to start the gentle seated exercise videos to gain strength? Would she be open to that? If she still stands she could practise sit to stands with you beside her (and a chair in front as well as behind) to gain strength in her legs. Just a thought. She can still gain strength at 94.

[@marie-theresehayes6875]

@@ImprovedHealth sadly she wouldn’t be able to. Mum has pretty much stopped eating these days. She has become withdrawn. Sadly I think she is at end of life. Hoping she is around a little longer but preparing myself for the worst. X

day 24 thx

[@susanwright2554]

Hi Jules, really enjoyed this, thank you! I can feel myself getting noticeably stronger. I just realised the 'heavier' weights I was using at the start have become my 'lighter' weights, and I actually ENJOY press-ups!! Twin buggy pushing is so much easier now. Many thanks for all of this 😊😊😊

[@ImprovedHealth]

Woo hoo! To read that you like push-ups is amazing!!! It's also awesome to read about the increase you've seen in your strength with the changing of weights.

[@amalkhalil7985]

Very beautiful

[@karenluke-mannarino3426]

Hey Jules, thanks so much for this series! I’m up to 7 lbs. for the heavy weights and just purchased 10 lbs weights for future use 🤞🏻 as I finish this series asking your opinion… should I go to your 5 day strength training next, or stay on week 5 of this series for a few more weeks. Other option is to go back and forth, right?

[@ImprovedHealth]

I am so happy to read that you have purchased heavier weights to continue to see progress. It's really up to you in regards to moving onto the 5 day series or repeating week 5 for a while. You can definitely go back and forth since the exercises are different and your muscles will be challenged in different ways by using each one week after week.

[@itasasu1]

on my 3rd week of doing week five and increased the weights used again, now im using 4kg for my heavy weights! last week i had tightness between my left shoulder and neck after doing arms but i started doing 30 mins of yoga everyday a few hours after my strength and cardio and now that tightness is gone

[@ImprovedHealth]

Congrats on using heavier weights! Stretching and yoga definitely helps to loosen things up.

[@malamaurer4043]

Good morning Jules, Could you please do me a favor? If you happened to find a couple of arms hanging around they might be mine. If you could kindly send them into KZbin's lost and found department I would greatly appreciate it 😂 Short workout but that was a burner 🔥💪🔥

Thanks for fantastic day 24 short but very effective workout. Enjoyed doing the plank, back exercises,flyes,chest press and all other exercises. This weight training is going to make lots of difference in the lives of those who never did it or those who do it on a regular basis. Most of the people must be using heavier weights than beforehand. I am one of those too so thanks for that. Another thanks for getting me doing the planks which I never dared to do before. Stay blessed❤
