Hey Everyone, I hope you enjoy this new workout (it is of intermediate level, not for beginners). Let me know you went below and I will see you all soon! Mike
Hi, thank you, welcome back!
Which programme would you suggest for beginners? Thanks.
Love this one also, Mike! You really have helped me! Like your new room! Can’t stand on one foot yet but I’m practicing like you said!
Great work out Mike…thanks
great! I do not have weights so I used bands. Good start to an almost new year! Cheers
I can’t imaging starting my day without hearing your voice. I am experiencing remarkable improvement! Thank you…Do consider more intermediate programs with variations and new movements.
Will do Eric! Keep up the great work!
Hi Mike, I am 78 and really like this workout especially the balancing. You have a nice relaxed manner and are very encouraging, “you can do it!”
We so appreciate you, Mike. My husband had back surgery in December 2021 and due to complications, there were 3 more back surgeries. He finally returned home in May and then went into outpatient therapy. The outpatient therapy was great but, all things come to an end as did the therapy. We knew that more therapy was needed. Cruising around youtube, I found you. What a great find you are! We are doing your exercises 6 days a week. Because of you, we are seeing continuous improvement and endurance. Thank you. By the way, you need to know that I believe therapists are miracle workers,
I LIKE THE BALANCE EXERCISES..
Yes!!!!!
Congratulations on your new place, great new video..
Thank you for the video god bless you
Hi from France merci first time I have seen your videos ..good job 👍
Thank you
Enjoyed this exercise very much
Great workout, Mike. Let's help seniors thrive.
Hi Mike
Love the new room. I live in a retirement village & a group of us meet a couple of times a week at the gym and do one of your programs. Thank you so much for keeping us motivated and moving.
I love these, especially the Intermediate exercises. I'd love to see an Intermediate HIIP routine.
fantastic exercises
Totally enjoyed it, thank you
I’m so pleased as I’ll be 84 in December and I could do these exercise. You-are wonderful to follow
Great❤ thank you!
First time I tried this one. Will definitely add this to my regimen. I could tell I had exercised when done. Enjoyed immensely.
Keep up the great work!
Great workout thank you
Love this thanks
I like this one Mike and am adding it to a couple of your other balance routines to fill 30 mins every other day. Thank you for suggesting a handy alternative to weights - I am using two tins of soup! Feel quite pleased with myself at having graduated to intermediate level. Good luck in your new home.
Hello love this workout thank you
Thanks! Really appreciate your class thank you much! Maria
You're welcome! Thanks for the Super Thanks! 🙂
Thanks, Mike. It is just right for me at 81; I appreciate your help in strengthening my body.
Great Workout!!! Love it!!!
Great Mike. Thank you.
I have graduated to this level after a month. Thanks Mike! I like how you remind us to straighten up and etc. And tell us what the movements improve.I think I’ve done all your videos. I been with you since 6/15. I do diamond Art n am seated for sometimes 2 hours and had to reach for back of the sofa to pull myself up . I just get up now! I’m so amazed! Thank you so much! I’m 75 and weigh 140: and felt like I was 90 and
weigh 200 but not anymore!So glad I found you! I can’t stand on one foot yet but I will someday! 😀❤️🙏🏻
Have had breast cancer surgery; these were a superb 'get-me-going-again', Mike. Good use of muscles at surgery area.
Picking up again, Mike. Much appreciation for this sequence. Confession: I 'hate' squats. Probably am not doing them correctly -- too much strain on already-sore knees. I will try to pay more attention to using muscles, not knees, I am thinking'.
Welcome back Rebecca! 🙂 Do partial squats (don't go down as deep), make sure your knees are moving inwards, they stay in line with your toes!
Thanks, Mike . Great workout .
Thank Mike. Another great workout. I love the new set too.
Another great workout! Feeling very good 👍 Thanks Mike
Excellent workout. Thanks Mike.
Love your seated exercises because of bad back and have to make adjustments because of shoulder pain. Overall, have been working out every day with you for over two years and it has been very beneficial for mind, body and spirit. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Mike🙂

Thank you for the Super Thanks Evangeline!
G’day Mike, your videos are absolutely the best. Bravo❤️
Great workout thank you and very stylish studio! After a cycling disaster, I’ve been doing your exercise videos since December 2021 and I cannot thank you enough for them. They have helped me enormously, I never get bored, and last week managed to get both arms straight (yay) by the side of my head. Please don’t stop helping us all, and every happiness in your new home.
Very helpful. Mike you are very clear and inspiring. Many thanks for this.
Love these videos they are perfect and so helpful. Thank you.
Hey Mike! Another excellent video, many thanks. Appreciate the variety and how it gets the heart rate going! Looking forward to the next workout.

Great exercises. We're thoroughly enjoying them
Thankyou so much Mike
I love the grey wall together with your turquoise shirt and the greenery around. Also the exercises were great. Enjoy your new living quarters and looking forward to your next video. .🥰 Eve
A great exercise Mike. Just the right amount of challenge for me just now
Thank you Mike for another great workout. I really needed this to get me back in the grove. Love your new space. Looking forward to more new vids.
Thank you 💕😊 showing the video god bless you 💕💕
Great workout. The balance part is really challenging so I know I need it! Thanks Mike.
Thank you for making these fitness for seniors videos! I appreciate you 🙏🏼
You're welcome Maggie!
Starting to improve, really good workout for me!!! Thanks!!!
Hello, Mike- I am a fit and active 66-year-old and I really enjoy your workouts. I wish you well in your new location; I live on 500 rural acres, so I understand the need for quiet. Take care.
Excellent, as always! I love those hip and legs swings (I do your dynamic stretch video at least 5 x week!), and the sequence of the rest of this video is great and very easy to follow. It's going into my weekly rotation of your exercise videos. Thanks so very much for all that you are doing for all of us. It makes a world of difference! Congrats on the move!
The new room has a soothing effect as the chosen colors are so calming. Happy that you have settled in South Australia at last. The strengthening work out was delightful. Loved it. Thank you Mike.
Greetings from France! Thank you Mike for this new video. Your new place looks great!
This is my second video in 2023. Really great to be back at it with you, Mike. I tried other things. I have not been completely inactive. The motivation, however, and support that I feel when I workout with you is just great. Unmatched!!! Thank-you so much for those videos.
Liked this exercise routine. I have mild Parkinson’s which is progressing slowly. My legs bother me and I don’t have tremors. Had a knee replacement last year for necrosis not arthritis. Now my other knee hyperextends when I try to balance on it. Have to hang in to the chair when balancing on this leg. Surgery knee good. Marg
I so appreciate these exercises you've devised to keep us flexible and strong. You do the videos so well. Thank you!
I am HERE!!! My commitment and consistency finally helped me to excell to intermediate level. Excellent workout!
Excellent ! Thank you very much and lots of happiness in the new location,
I really like this video with weights and balance. Thank you for all you do.
Hi. I am an active 71 year old who has just got back into yoga as i was having hip and knee pain. GP said most likely caused through very weak gluteus on right side. So had been adding bridges and clams to routine. Found your lovely , simple workout with calf raises and squats, all super good for gluteus too. I will add this to my work out for days where i feel ive missed out, or it was otherwise a bit light. I am definately going to see what else you have, i like the simplisity and your style. Thank you so very much.
Hi from Florida🌴your new set is great. Loved this video, my fav arms & legs standing with weights.
Welcome back.
I'm so grateful I found your videos. I work out to them just about every day and getting so much stronger. You have an excellent way of making me feel confident and motivated. I'm 75 and my son is taking me to Italy in 10 weeks so I need to do a bit of work on myself. Balance still a problem !!
Great workout, thank you
You're welcome Maggie and glad you liked it! 🙂
I like this one Mike , however I need to work on my balance and will make sure I continue this workout.
Thank you for all your hard work help us Seniors.
Wishing you much success in your new place.
Thanks Mike. this really helped me see where my weak areas needed work. good job! 78 years young in St Louis, MO....like your new home!
I did really enjoy the workout and I always do
Thanks once again Mike,I really enjoyed this one. Great your doing those exercises side on, makes it easier to see, plus it’s a reminder to get the posture right. Like your new studio, it looks great 👍
Love this new sequence. Goes very smoothly. My balance is still not good but I am now focusing on the lovely bush in your garden. Hope you will be happy in your new home.
I find this such a great workout
I think I’ve seen you before , since I’m quitting PT this video came in at the perfect time . Thank you
Turned 75 yesterday and follow along with 5 of your videos every day. Only videos I've haven't found a reason to quit! Thanks.
That's great to hear Weir! Keep up the good work with it all and happy belated birthday! :)
It is a great workout Mike and I have said this before but I am saying it again how much energy that I always have after an exercise
Thank you Mike! I was a bit slower, but will work up to full speed!
Thank you! My new favorite mini exercise routine. Hoping to try 5 pound weights next time, 3 seemed too easy today, but still felt good!
Thank you Mike for sharing these wonderful exercises for us👍
You're welcome Fareeda! 🙂
Hi Mike thanks for the new video. I enjoyed this one and like your new place. It looks nice an green outside so weather must be good, enjoy and keep up the good exercises... Paul
Did this excercise to-day for the first time as I felt a bit motivated to move did some warm up first then the all excercises we should do then this one. Lovely day here June 2022 in Somerset England. Thank you and your studio looks good.
Love the new color on your wall😎 This is a nice strength balance video enjoyed it
Just got to Ibiza, villa has its own gym. Great start to the day. Keep up the good work. Regards Mick
Hi Mike...Good luck inyour abode...another great doable set of exercises...love the new colour on wall...keep smiling...regards Mags.
Very helpful workout. I have trouble getting up from the floor or out of a bath. Could you please show some core strength exercises as well. Many thanks.
Ok Mike...let's do advanced now!
I just completed this routine but did take slightly longer breaks between rounds. I used 5 lb. weights, and exceeded the reps for the squats (the 15 count one), rows, and curls for all rounds by 5 reps. I was fearful of attempting this routine, but I'm almost there! Thanks, as usual, Mike!...Anastasia
I liked this video and also the view from your new place. Be happy there! It's very hot in Italy and I even thought of just swimming every day. We have the whole house air conditioned but this African high pressure is getting to me. However, I don't want to lose the exercise ability that I have acquired, so until it's a bit less hot, I'm looking to do shorter exercise videos. This one was ideal. Thank you.
great exercise🧍Thanks MIke
Hi Mike, I did well with the video! The challenge was just right! Thank you, I appreciate you!
Well done Maggie!
