    1. Sit to stand - very slow on the way down
    2. Squat with weight close to chest
    3. Heel raise on step
    4. Press up

    I wish I had seen this 6 years ago, no-one was talking about sarcopenia then, and I have watched my muscle mass go down and down. I am now 81. I’m not sure I have the strength of will and motivation to get exercising now, but your videos will help! I’ve taken screenshots of your very helpful notes, so I am going to try!

      Once you start, it gets easier the more you do them. I’m almost 70 and trying these along with all my others for bones, TKR exercises as I’m 5 months in and doing really well apart from not being able to bend the knee backwards very far, so those are really hard for me ATM.

    I've never in my life been able to do a push-up, not even when I was young and an active rock-climber! But now, at 71, I have been able to get to doing push-ups against the kitchen bench. That works for me, since the kitchen bench has a smooth curved edge which is comfortable to hold, it is available on the spot, and it requires some core activation as well as the glutes and arms.
    Little by little, I can feel that I am getting stronger from doing all these exercises (and some of the other ones). Thank you for making it easy!

    This is fantastic info for my calves. So thanks for another great video! Just a note of caution: Wearing socks to do the heel lifts on a slick plastic surface is a potential slipping hazard for us seniors. Even those of us with normal balance and foot muscle control. Perhaps selecting a footstool with an anti-skid surface would be a better choice.

    Something I still remember from a few years ago: a coworker's father died and I went to his mother's home to pay my condolences to the family. They are a very tall family, not just the guy Iwork with, in the 1.80 - 2.00+ range. The 80-something woman who had just lost her husband was sitting on the floor talking with comforters and her granddaughter came in asked something. The woman - in her 80s and about 1.8m tall - said she would get it and, like a 16 year old gymnast, popped up so quickly, effortlessly and gracefully from the floor I was taken aback. It was truly inspirational and jaw-dropping.

I'm '72, and a runner for ~3 decades. In 12/ 24, I went from 4x / week @ 3+ hrs walk/jog routine to difficulty walking for more than 30 minutes without being totally "gassed." Never found a cause, but am working my way "back" following 6 months off & significant loss of strength. Am now much more focused on regaining strength as I rebuild my aerobic fitness.

    In my late 60s I was shocked that I couldn't get up and down on the floor. I have a deteriorating hip and hadn't realized how weak I'd become avoiding any use of it. Your videos, your book, and your newsletter kept me from giving up through the slow and uncomfortable progress I need. You are an excellent coach and motivator Will Harlow. I'm putting in the effort, forgiving my body not responding as it did 25 years ago, and making new progress in strength, balance, flexibility, and I'm sure a slowdown and reversal of sarcopenia. Keep telling us we can do it, at a new pace, but still much more mobile.

    This is very useful info. I'd add a pulling motion for the posterior chain, e.g. an inexpensive TRX-type of belt system that hooks on your door.

    Congratulations on your book.
    I think making and selling follow along instructional videos would be way more helpful than reading a book. I love books on many subjects, but when it comes to exercising, I like to watch a video and follow along.

    I don’t think the muscle loss we see in the population today is normal. But our lifestyles have changed so much in the last few generations.
    We need to stop normalizing what I call premature aging. The body is buildt to be in activity. If we don’t use it, we lose it.
    Sadly most people don’t know how. So I really appreciate your channel, working against this problem. Some of us are beyound 50, and some of us know someone beyond 50.
    This is useful information for everyone. I’ve recommended you to others I care about 😊

    Dear Will, I started looking at your videos during our stay in Germany in May June July. Bought your 2023 book , did not get around to collect the video present. Now back in South Africa, trying to find a way to purhase your new book. Also do not have access to a laptop yet. Would also like to get the Fri videos. My problems: osteoporosis, peripheral neuropathy,80 years old. Combining many of your exercises with what I have learnt from pilates. Very helpful. Would not like to loose contact. Thank you for a wonderful way of getting your mesage across to us over 50's❤

    Thank you so much. 3 simple muscles. I do yoga, lift weights, do cardio, walk and I’m 77 yrs. old. I think doing these 3 exercises will help me build more upper body strength. What I love these 3 exercises are so simple, you can still do them while travelling. Anyone can start today. Blessings. Linda

    Thank you so much, I'm only 62 I had to leave work last year, I've had rheumatoid arthritis for the past 10 + years so have to be careful what i do to avoid flare-up which leads to steroid injections. I cannot believe the decline in muscle mass since leaving work. I have managed these exercises, the sit to stand, I couldn't walk properly for two days 😂 but it felt good having workout pain again! Your teaching is invaluable and so beneficial to me I've just found my go to and will doing these daily 💪 thanks again. x

    Thanks Will this is perfect! Just had my second hip replacement and a spinal decompression op. Having exercised all my life, over the last 6 years, I've lost muscle. I am looking forward to doing these exercises the correct way with uour instruction. For example, sitting on the edge of the chair for sit to stand instead of fully into the chair has made all the difference, having mild arthritis in the knee.

I‘ve read that almost everyone over 50 is likely to have some level of osteoarthritis in the cervical spine ..
