    I’ve been doing your seated workouts with my mom, who is 73 and has mobility and balance issues. These workouts are great for me as well, as I am in a wheelchair most days due to a spinal cord injury. We have both benefited in big ways (physically and mentally) from following along with your exercises every day. Well, most days. 😊 Thank you so much for posting your wonderful videos!

      @@inciangiearslan7038 Ideally, if you lift with light weights, you can do this daily. But, if you challenge yourself with weights that are a bit heavier, then do this every 2nd day. Once you start challenging the muscles more specifically like in this workout, you should give them a day off the next day so the muscles have time to recover before working them again.

    Excellent workout Jules! Love that there are so many bicep and tricep moves in this one. I cannot work my shoulders due to an implant in my shoulder, so I will just substitute the shoulder work for more biceps and triceps! Can you do a lower body that is knee friendly with no squats or lunges for those of us that have knee issues. Love these workouts! Keep them coming.❤❤❤❤

      Since we’re basically going from one exercise to another in the workout (without much of a break), it does make it harder which is why the weight is lower. Ideally, add this workout onto an all-in-one workout or cardio workout every second day. You will definitely notice improvements.

Just look for 'playlists' on the main page and scroll down to where you see the seated options. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
      I now upload all new seated workouts to the new channel.
      Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com
      I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out.
