[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You are most welcome Susi :)

[@stacischeetz7597]

This will forever be one of my favorite videos! It feels wonderful to stretch like this in the morning, especially because I had a medical injection yesterday and the injection site is sore. This was exactly what I needed! My shoulders and arms are, gently, saying, "Thank you!"

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Great Staci! Your shoulders and arms are very welcome :)

[@LisaSkaggs-x8o]

Great workout! Exactly what my body needed this morning. I completely agree with the other comments regarding your workouts. There's something for everyone and your expertise and calm presence make all the difference. Thanks for all you do!

[@pattisSd]

I really appreciate your detailed instructions! Reminding us to lower shoulders, tuck pelvis, etc. is so helpful. Thank you.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

You are so welcome! Good to know that it's helpful :)

[@DNSama137]

This is the first morning in over a month I’ve been well enough from an upper respiratory infection to return to a fitness routine. This routine is exactly what I needed. My neck, left shoulder and mid back have been so tight and painful for over a year. I’ve done chiropractic, message therapy, ice and heat. Yes, those things have helped, but this routine touched all those affected areas. Thank you for the time you have taken to develop this mobility stretching video. It felt so good to get moving again. 👍

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful Norma! I'm so glad these are good exercises for you :)

[@AP-ll4cx]

Excellent instructions, as normal. Great stretches to set me up for the day. Thanks, Lauren 🤩

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Fantastic! I'm so glad you have found my workouts helpful :) Thanks Lindsay :)

[@bluejacket645]

Lauren, thank you for this upper body and mobility workout. It is perfect for improving my range of motion in the shoulder area, besides definitely helping to reduce some pain from cervical stenosis I've been experiencing.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

Wonderful! That’s what I was hoping for and how I choreographed it 🤩

@@SeniorShapeFitness now if I can find your workout with planks maybe? Or something gentle to work my abs and sides. I heard of side planks but you probably have better ideas.

[@SeniorShapeFitness]

@@john1970-n8k Planks are great! Here is the link to a recent video where we do a plank. If you want more, many of my mat pilates videos have a lot of core work (and planks) in them! kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4mYZJ2YrdV4fqs
