[@bonnies7507]

Thanks for this ! Love the kitchen sink option..no excuses for not doing it given I am often at the sink !!

[@PetraFisherMovement]

you're so welcome! and yess! it's such a great opportunity to work those in to your daily routine 👏👏👏

[@sharonromine1982]

Hi Petra, after watching your videos I’ve started trying to do at least 5 squats a day. I’m a camphost so I use the handicapped bar in the forest service bathrooms. I’m 70 and with arthritis and weak bladder hoping it’ll help. Thank you 🌸

[@PetraFisherMovement]

Bravo!! That sounds like a great start - stick with it and I think you'll see some exciting improvements!

[@LizzyAnn904]

Hi! I’ve been following you on Instagram, and I’m so glad I found you on KZbin also. It’s easier to try the exercises watching YT on my big TV. Will be trying some of these exercises.

[@PetraFisherMovement]

Yayyy! Welcome 🤗 I'm so glad you found me on KZbin too - LMK if you have any qs along the way!

[@rhudson31]

Love this! It’s now December 2024 so, way past September 2023 but if I can still sign up … I’m 72 & desperately need to get my squat back!

[@barbaraferron7994]

I tried using a porch post to lower myself into a squat, and also do modified pullups. This was working well till one day I lost my grip and fell into a deep squat, my knees were not happy about it. Then I had to figure out how to come out of it. I would have rolled to the side but I was on the corner of the porch so both sides had a drop off. I did figure out a way out I forget how now, and my knees only hurt for a few days but I have been leary of trying that exercise again.

[@PetraFisherMovement]

hmm - definitely if there's a risk of slipping off that's not great!!

[@jomyb55]

Thank you

[@PetraFisherMovement]

You're so welcome!

[@ninabonita892]

great tips, thank you so much. This is what I needed 💗💗

[@PetraFisherMovement]

yayy!! I love to hear it! My pleasure 😊

[@beverlynewman2808]

Hi! I would love the Squat-tember challenge. I used to be able to squat so easily till I aggravating a knee digging a hole for a tree about two years ago. 😢

[@PetraFisherMovement]

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. My Squatting Challenge should be a good starting point for you! Explore gently and LMK how it goes. Here's the sign up link: bit.ly/3R7iQ9b .

[@barbaramaxwell7885]

I would love to have the access to SquatTember!

[@PetraFisherMovement]

awesome!!! you can sign up with the link in my caption 😊 Enjoyy!!!

[@OddDreeRose444]

hey Petra! would you be able to do a video on fixing uneven hips?

[@PetraFisherMovement]

I don't know that's something that can work for a video because asymmetries vary among individuals. Have you seen the lunge video on this channel - that might be what you're thinking of?

[@dianeobrien3998]

[@hansmuller7431]

Hi. I am searching for an Video where you do internal rotation lying on the floor with yoga Block between knees. Couldnt find it. If its possible, maybe u know where to find. I understand of cause if its not:). Thanks

[@PetraFisherMovement]

I think that's in the shorts - it's one I did about making squatting more accessible. It's a great way to work on hip rotation!

[@bellab8412]

My one concern is my knees. They've cracked my whole life but now they are making weird noises, no pain. Will these help with strengthening or would you say do something else?

[@PetraFisherMovement]

Joint noises are actually quite common and should decrease and most likely go away the more you move. Kitchen sink squats will certainly help with strengthening the muscles around your knees and in turn, benefit your joints!

[@debbietrevathan4954]

Please sign me up!😊 1:44

[@PetraFisherMovement]

Yayy! Send me your email address or email [e-mail] and my team will get you sorted!

[@lindsayfoster4759]

I used to be able to squat down like this but after a hamstring injury I stopped using certain muscles I feel and lost so much of my flexibility. Would love a video on how to get back to this, not thinking in terms of squaring from an athletic perspective, more so from flexibility perspective! 🩷 I can’t even get half way to fully sqaut anymore 😟

[@PetraFisherMovement]

You should try the kitchen sink exercises from this video in whatever range you can achieve and it will help with your goals! I'll also be sharing a ton more about how to improve mobility & strength so you can regain your squats in my new Squat-tember freebie. You can sign up here: bit.ly/3DY2NTI
