[@MHAdvocateUK]

I’d previously always listened to Personal Trainers at the gym, but they never took my ‘65 years old’ into consideration really. They showed me great exercises and I’m really grateful but you Will, really understand us older folk and give us exercises that make so much more sense. Thank you so much for everything you do. I think you are a GENIUS in your field. 👏👏👏🥇🏆

[@user-ov4wr5yu4r]

I get you. I am a personal trainer to over 60's and it kills me to see younger trainers working with older clients and not factoring in their abilities and needs.

🌺 55yr old woman with bilateral labral hip tears. This is a stretch that helps right away. I'm taking it easy, holding the stretch when I'm feeling resistance, and hip is now moving more freely 🙏🏻 thank you! Look forward to receiving your book soon 🤓💕

[@mtnunicycler]

@debbiec6216 🌻 I've been a hip surgery candidate for over 15yrs, managing well with regular maintenance. I tend to pronate with a fairly balanced gait, not so much side to side, and right now my focus is stretching/strengthening my butt and foot muscles now as I'm wearing down the top of my thigh bones with my movements. I hope you find relief soon. Will be trying barefoot shoes as well, leaning towards the peluva brand

Hey, guys. I found that once get into this position and get your tailbone tucking, if you bend your knees a little more, you get a really good stretch. I do recommend keeping the front heel firmly down. I hope Will agrees.

[@caroldixon3952]

Thanks for this useful exercise. The soft tissue in the front of my knees are painful even in the knee replacement I had three years ago and many exercises are impossible such as squats etc (which cause tendonitis in my replaced knee) but I can manage this one even though I'm in my late 70s. Trying to tuck my bottom in is more difficult as my lower back is painful due to the bones narrowing and the base of my spine curving but I can manage it a little way if I don't do it too often. My favourite exercise is going for walks with my walker or two sticks so I am grateful for any advice of how to walk better. I really miss being able to dance and walk easily as I used to before osteoarthritis kicked in but I want to keep up my walking as long as I can and your videos are a real help.

[@simongee8928]

Having done my share of square bashing, for many years I've walked with a stride without any obvious issues. I recently went on a course with a leading navigation expert who recommend using much shorter steps as it prevents overreaching the walking muscles and you're keeping your stride within the area of the body mass, thus less strain on the joints & tendons. It appears to make sense and I've now got into the habit of taking shorter steps whenever I walk. Your thoughts - ?

[@laurenvicker4826]

I’m 65 male. I walk nowadays because of health. I also find that I have to put extra effort to get the benefits. Retirement is not what I thought it was (being lazy). For tripling hazards, choose the right sandals. I automatically lift my toe to avoid a snag but the front part of the sandal won’t lift and my snag if it’s too long. If you can’t walk, thread water.
