Upper Body Workout With Weights For Seniors - Intermediate | More Life Health

[@jeancoombs7279]

I am 92 and still able to work along with Mike. I do several of Mike's workouts and they are a blessing to me. Thank you Mike.

[@MoreLifeHealth]

Awesome work Jean!

[@carolpridgeon8200]

Well Mike, I have been doing these exercises every other day for 9 days....so 5 times now....every time I come to the lateral raises I cuss you...I finally took five lbs each off my weights for this exercise because ten lb weights were just too much for me right now. I am almost 82...I have exercised with weights most of my adult life...the last few years I have had a chronic. condition that preveted me from doing this. I am ust determined to be as strong as I can be and my shoulders and arms needed strengthing....so I am committed. I am grateful that you posted this video...I will be using it until it becomes easier for me before I move on to anything else. Namaste' 🙏

[@MarkWolff-tw4di]

Absolutely the best. I have been doing his exercises every day and I've noticed a big difference in my shape. I look better at 72 then I did at 52 and before. Thank you Mike. Keep the positive things all going

[@4musikable]

Great short workout that I can add to my daily indoor cycling workouts. Much appreciated by this octogenarian lady. 🎉

[@MoreLifeHealth]

So glad you liked it! Thanks for the support, and keep up the great work!

[@gwendalu7325]

I am 73 years old. You are the best!

I’m helping my husband who use to workout everyday & was a runner. Parkinson’s hit about 15 years ago & he has pretty much lost most of his muscle mass, balance, but Mike your are helping him so much. He can not only watch, but hear your motivation & you & I keep him going🙏

[@secretariatgirl4249]

My dad had Parkinsons and had little motivation to keep up the simple exercises no matter how hard we tried. Keep up the good work, Judi!

[@carolpridgeon8200]

Good job. I am so happy that he is motivated. I am 81 and I was a weight trainer and yoga enthusiast. I just started this video today and I am really quite shocked at my loss of strength. But that's ok. It is one day at a time. I finished this class and I will return again in a couple of day. good luck to all of us reaching for the best us we can be. Namaste'

[@joymodawell8201]

Great workout. I appreciate that you didn’t spend time talking about yourself and explaining the routine.

[@TheDeetie]

Thank you for this. I have been in a chair for four years and only recently could walk again. Now I am rebuilding my body. This workout has removed all pain from my upper body. Thank you!!

[@MoreLifeHealth]

I'm glad to hear the workout has helped you! Congratulations on your progress, and keep up the amazing work rebuilding your body!

[@aliciawilliams8966]

Really liked this video. Here’s what I most like about all your videos: you get to the point and you get it done. Not a lot of small talk. I am a forever fan. My weights are only one pounders. I plan to go with two lbs soon. This was fun!

[@tenathornton6972]

Doing this every day!!!

[@gloriagaviria2415]

I love this routine

[@alastairtopham5939]

Thanks very much Mike for this video. I do have a damaged lower back so need to be careful with weights. Anyway, I look forward to trying this excellent video at some stage, especially when my back is improved.

Love the routine helping lost upper body do to light stroke and degenerative discs and fracture thanks

[@teresaluna1936]

Hi Michael! I have been working out with your videos, for 30.06 minutes in the morning. This past week I did 7 days following 7.13 warmup, 3 pounds weights: 10.17, 8.43, and 14.50. I added 1 mile walk ( at home) I feel energized and motivated to continue. I can’t express enough my appreciation and gratitude for your kindness. I am 77 years old , 5.2 inches short, although overall healthy, I gained 26 pound during the two years of the pandemic. My doctor was concerned about my blood pressure and cholesterol level. He suggested walking every day. But I felt so heavy I could not do it. It has been more than 6 months since I discovered your videos, but I didn’t followed every day. The words “ pre_diabetic” scared me enough. You have helped me so much! May God bless you in abundance. Thanks Mike.

[@palmsmcgee5456]

I'm helping my 73 year old dad start some weight training to help him lose weight and these videos are brilliant, thanks very much :)

Mike, I’ve just begun my osteoarthritis osteoporosis journey and follow your videos now! Thanks so much for being You and making me Smile along with each one, on Facebook too! I bought your resistance band but haven’t seen a beginner video for using it and it won’t work with your older band exercises? 😘

[@DrNancyLivingCoCreatively]

Mike, I like your short videos. I don't have weights, and I need arm and shoulder stretches. I have bands. Do you have a video I can follow?

[@annemariesacchetti9348]

I loved it. I am 60 years old and I have always exercised all my life but in the past 3 years a health issue called Mast cell Activation Syndrome has prevented me from doing very much, which also caused osteoporosis.it has caused swelling in my body and when I do heavier weights I get pressure in my eyes and head so I have to use light weights. I also have a torn labrum which affects me walking or dancing as much as I used to. Looking for lower body exercises to strengthen without affecting my hip- would love more videos to follow. Thanks so much - it was to follow along instead of planning my own routine.

[@staceydroogas928]

Every so often I come upon a little gem, and this routine is one of them, albeit demanding in some of the moves. I'm feeling a "GOOD" kind of invigorated tired right now. I used 3 lb. weights for most of the exercises, and the lateral arm lifts I used water bottles which are about 1.25 lbs. each, due to right shoulder weakness. I feel like a female Atlas right now. Thanks, as always, Mike...Anastasia

[@debbiherold4932]

Tried this video for first time. So as to ease into, I used my 1 lb gloves. As I've been commenting, I've had right side neck and shoulder issues now for about 3 weeks. I get a massage every other week to help work through. I've been icing and use moist heat and take alleve (limit myself to 1 every 12 hours) to ease pain which seems to radiate in upper shoulder and arm especially in morning and through the night. It's a balance between stretching and easing into weights. Been here done this in past. Sometimes very challenging to make myself push to do but in the long run I'll get on the other side of this, I know. Thx Mike.

This is deceptively strong seated upper arm workout!~ I added a few extra moves from a trainer named Joyce Vedral afterwards. That side later arm raise is pretty tough but like it better than doing it to the front as Vedral did. So, I'll definitely keep doing your workout!! I'm 3 months out from hernia surgery, so I did 3 lb weights.....eventually will go back up to 5.

Thank you Mike. This was a lovely upper body video- not too much and the right length. I use small water bottles as my hands wont go round tins and I haven't got weights. They work so well. These are very much appreciated as we cannot attend classes and home videos are often too long. x :-)
