    I am Phil Jones in California and utilize many of your exercises at a senior living center where I volunteer to do exercise and Tia Chi classes. My parents are both 96 and attend the 30 minute exercise classes five days a week. They are in far better shape than they were three years ago, to say nothing of their improved quality of life. Your exercises are a great help, thank you 🙏

    Hi Meg! I've seen a couple of your other videos and enjoyed them but Covid has turned things a little bit sideways and I just rediscovered them again. :) I'm 63 years old as of January 2021 and although I'm very mobile and in good physical health, I really appreciate these slower, more concentrated exercises. They are by no means EASIER than what I've done at the gym, etc. but they do have a calmness to them which makes me feel more relaxed and focused. Thank you so much for your time and talents!

    Video 2 thank you for the free content! You have no idea how much of a gift this is for me at this point.
    I walk but needed direction for strengthening exercises too.
    Have chronic fatigue so this is perfect for me as I cannot do strenuous work until I get strong!
    Blessings!

Being 67 years old, I have gotten flabby and gained 40 lbs which only brings on some depression which keeps me from going out much. Wish me luck or send me some determination. :)

    Hi my name is Janet. I just watched your video. It is just what I need. I am 79 years old and I do a lot of sitting, unfortunately I’ve lost a lot of strength in my legs, my thighs feel weak and so I really need to exercise more. I had knee surgery back in 2011, was doing well until about 2 or 3 years ago. I get tired easily when standing and stiff when sitting too long. Just came out of therapy which helped a lot, but I need to continue the exercises so that I can regain the strength in my legs. If you have other videos that can help to strengthen my legs, I’d like to see them as well. Thanks so much for giving of your time to help seniors (among others) like me. You are really appreciated. God bless you for sharing. ❤ 10:21

      Twice a day is fine! But leave 1 day off in between. If your legs feel sore, then take a day or more off to let them recover.

    Hi Meg , I am from India , New Delhi. I am 56 and have been trying so many videos from You Tube and Instagram for my legs and knees strengthening,but were not abke to do and lose interest. Today morning looking for some easy video ,I cam across yours and believe me ,I did three of your videos in succession.The difference felt afterwards in legs and body was amazing. I can feel the blood flowing as i write to you immediately after. I pray that i should be able to continue on this. Thanks so much. Could you also let me know ,how much time does take to get back your muscle strength. I am overweight but mobile . But exercising after 2 years. Desperately want to be fit.
