This workout flowed really well. I always use heavy weights, but I found that I didn't have to rest as long between sets, which was great. Love getting done faster!

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Great job!

[@DunderMifflin_ThisisPam]

This was fire. I love a pure strength situation now and then 💪💕

[@FitnesswithPJ]

It's so empowering! 💕

Great workout this morning. I got great news from my doctor yesterday. Bone density test showed good results. It's the first time I have had improvement since I have been on this journey with Osteo. I owe it all to you PJ!

[@dianaorlando3964]

Congratulations Debra. I, too, have osteoporosis. Would you please share what you are doing and eating for bone health, in addition to exercise with PJ? Thankful, Diana

[@debrabailey9903]

@@dianaorlando3964 I am taking prolia and have been for years. I really think it's the workouts that have helped. I try to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.

[@dianaorlando3964]

@@debrabailey9903Debra, My doctor wants me on Prolia for life. I’m afraid of the negatives as all drugs have positives & negatives. Are you taking any other supplements ie: magnesium or strontium? I’ve heard these are very good. How’s your diet? Are you only doing PJ’s workouts? I’m 63yrs. I appreciate hearing your protocol as something you are doing is working hooray!!! Thank you Diana

[@debrabailey9903]

@@dianaorlando3964 I know the prolia has a lot of side effects but I was unable to take other medications. I take magnesium calcium and vitamin d3.

[@dianaorlando3964]

@@debrabailey9903 Debra I love that you are so positive. It's good to empower yourself with knowledge, hooray. I recently joined a talk group "Inspire," online. Lots of women sharing what they are doing and many ideas and things done are shared. You may want to consider it; that is where I heard about strontium supplement as an alternative to calcium ( which can calcify in the arteries.) Best of luck, we will be in touch in the soon. Diana

[@carolynblack420]

I was telling a friend this morning about how I love that your workouts are “complete” - warm-up, exercise, cool-down, stretch.

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Really appreciate that Carolyn! 💕

[@Helen_Thurn]

Did this with a friend a week ago, and her request this week was for weights with you again please. You won her over with just ONE workout (and maybe a little nudging from me. I'm 61 (that looks SO weird!) but no stranger to lifting. Many younger KZbinrs either yell at the camera with gushing excitement or work with NO verbal cues at all - so we're forced to keep an eye on the screen, which isn't the best for one's form. Your style is absolutely refreshingly adult - you strike a great balance with cheerful cues and form pointers - and a bit of side-banter too. Thankyou.

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Aww, thank you!! I would love to use some of this as a testimonial. If you're open to it, could you copy & paste and your comment and send along with a photo to [e-mail]. And a big high five to you and your friend!! OX

[@janicemaloof556]

GREAT workout from beginning to end.

[@adriennekinsella7123]

Completed this an hour or so ago. I really needed to decompress as I'm stressed about my trip to England tomorrow (never been away for as long as we have planned). The workout calmed my nerves and put me back on track emotionally. I always love PJ's humor and I seem to always find my self answering her! (Wish you could hear me!) I even upped the weights as I was not "struggling" enough. (I hear you loud and clear!) I'll be back to working out with you all in September!

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Oh Adrienne! I hope you have a wonderful time in London and see you back SOOOOON! 💕

[@FitnesswithPJ]

I appreciate that! Thank you 🙏

[@cyndc2108]

I appreciated the pace of this workout. I’m 71 and haven’t lifted for awhile so I went lower on weights. Next week will use 10,12 and 15! I loved the workout!

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Wonderful! So glad you loved it! 🙌

[@theresaargie1688]

WOW! 71 and still at it! I am in awe of you CynDC! Keep it up! I hope I can still workout when I get there. I'm no spring chicken and I already fed this challenging. The goal is HEALTHY and STRONG! Thanks for sharing!

[@jing.ocampo]

Wow, loved this! Had to switch down to lower weights on the shoulder moves, but they still burned so I knew I had the right weights 😊 This is a keeper ❤

[@mariadamato9740]

You're so welcome - glad you love the combo! 💕

[@sarinalam4907]

Thanks PJ! I used 9kg for chest press and believed can use 8kg for three point row as well. I used 7kg for crossover lunge and arm squat, 6 kg for bicep curl, 4 kg for lateral raise and triceps extension.

Wow! Awesome work Sarina! 🙌 💕 💪

What an awesome session! This was my first full body strength workout with weights for a few weeks, as been away on holiday and doing body weight workouts. These are my favourite workouts, traditional, uncomplicated strength routines at a good pace so you can go heavy with the weights. Really really enjoyed this one, thank you PJ, think I’m gonna be feeling this one tomorrow 😂 Love the indoor shoes! I have them too… my mum recently told me she has an indoor bucket which I found hilarious 😂

Kudos for listening to your body while recovering 👏 😃

[@audreyArice]

When I saw this video was 41 minutes, I almost didn't push play, but boy, am I glad I did. It went by so quickly, I was amazed! I liked how you mixed up the Tabata with the strength exercises. I can tell you put a lot of thought, and love into your programming. Thank you for that. And, oh, by the way . . .I have indoor sneakers too, just saying.

[@FitnesswithPJ]

Thank you and So glad you loved it Audrey! You are my kind of gal with indoor sneakers 💗

[@sarinalam4907]

Thanks PJ! I used 10kg for the squat, but can only used 5-6kg for the press. 10kg for chest press and 8kg for curtsy lunge; 10kg for row and 6kg for curl; and 4kg for the last round, which I need to take rest in between! I burnt 220kal for the past 58mins
