I do not lift weights but would like to start.
Thank you for this video.
I'm also interested in your workout.
Hi, thank you for being here. I can def. make that video. And if you need any help of have questions on how to get started, please do not hesitate to reach out

Hi Claudia! Thanks for this video. Would you be willing to make workout videos for beginners? My son has some equipment and if you can show us older ladies how you would start a routine and how to safely use equipment, that would be wonderful. I currently walk and I stay active during the day with cooking and household chores. I am not one to sit all day. I just need to commit time and have a trainer show me what to do…like you!!😊❤
Hi Chyntia, thank you for being here. I can def. make a video like that, probably just using some dump-bells, since that is what most people could easily get and use.

Great idea, Claudia. 💖💖
Thanks to you I am lifting heavier and feeling stronger! xoxo
Yay! I am proud of you ❤️
Hi Claudia. I’m a 68 years old female and I lift pretty heavy 9:20 weights 2-3 times a week, I have been lifting for 32 years also I do sprints twice a week and walk 2-3 times a week for an hour. Some people specially women don’t realize the importance of weight lifting and the importance of working out for life quality. I was a competitive body builder light weight and a competitive runner but as I got older I realized how important my life style was going to be for my life quality as I got older. I can’t lift or run as much weight or as fast as I used to but I do pretty good for my age. I’m glad I felt in love with lifting and running at an early age.
How wonderful! I too am 68 and you are an inspiration!
I am so happy to hear that you have made weight lifting, sprinting and walking part of your life. I agree with you, many of us do not realise the importance of these things, but they can literally be life changing.
Thank you for sharing a bit about your routine and for being here

Hi Claudia ! I love how you give us the science behind your topics ! I have strength trained since my 20’s with very heavy weights until now that I’m in my 60’s not as intense . I have tendinitis in my shoulders and elbows and it tends to flare up often but I work out anyway right through it . I’ve added a lot of stretching to my workouts and it feels so good and keeps the hips in good shape ! I would love to see your routines . Have a great week you look great . ❌⭕️‼️
Hi Sue, glad you enjoyed this! And good to hear that you are so active. I think, unfortunately, as we’re getting older, we all have to work around some things, but the most important thing is to keep going.
Thank you for your kind words, wishing you a great rest of your week ❤️
Yes I do lift weights. I try daily. I have bought and a rebounder for jumping. I would love to see how you exercise!!! Thank you for all this information Claudia!!! Many kisses ❤!!!
Hi gorgeous, I am proud of you! Rebounding has great benefits as well.
And yes, I will make that video
Lots of love
xo
Hi Claudia, so glad you made this video, and Yes! Would love for you to make a Work Out Video. I will be 63 next month, I was obsessed with working out 4-5 times / wk, I jogged 2-4 miles / day and also did some aerobics. At 62, major spinal Canal tear with 6 major Spinal Surgeries, I’ve not been allowed to jog, so I do walk ( not enough) , but haven’t worked out in such a long time. I am 1 yr. Out from my last spinal cord surgery and I’ve got soooo much muscle mass loss and No Butt At All, I’ve got to start going to the gym and lifting weights and getting on my Max Climber. Whew, I apologize for rambling on, so thank you for the very important reminder and encouragement in weight lifting and more. T can’t wait to wok out with you.
Hi Karla, I am so sorry to hear about your injury and surgery. I know first hand how that sucks, as I broke my neck over a decade ago and had to start from scratch again. But the good news it, muscle has memory and it is never to late to get it back. So hopefully you will be able to get back to the gym, or even just lift some weights at home. And if I can help with anything, please do not hesitate to reach out
Lots of love

I used to lift weights but haven’t in a long long time. I would love for you to show us how to exercise every muscle group.
Hi Michelle, I will def. make that video. And maybe in the meantime you can get back into a weight lifting routine. I am here if I can help with anything
x
Good morning just catching up on your videos as always, super encouraging and super supportive. I always appreciate your enthusiasm and tips on staying healthy and fit or mature women
Hi gorgeous, glad you enjoyed this

Hello Claudia! I think a supervised routine from a certified trainer is great! As a former strenth and conditioning coach and personal trainer I've seen many people ( young and old) hurt themselves because they weren't aware of proper technique, progression,etc. With your expertise I know it will be safe and effective. I'm almost 75 years old and lift weights 4 times a week as wellas bike or walk almost dailey. I lift fairly heavy( 100 lb bb benchpress as one upper body exercise example) and perform 270 reps of bench steps ups ( holding light db's - forward, lateral and backwards). 3 sets of 15 each diretion plus hip ankle band exercises( abduction/ adduction). Also DB squats 3sets of 10reps. Seems like a lot but it doesnt really take more than 20 minutes. Key is having proper technique and progression. My real passion is gardening and these routines allow me to do the heavy work of maintaing a large garden without killing myself!😊 I have no outside help and garden for hours after my commitments to weight training and aerobic exercise daily( not on Sunday- a recovery day!) Love your smart and crucial advice foe keeping people healthy and strong!! And P.S. people tell me that I look a lot younger than my age! Another perk!
Hi Lorelei, thank you for sharing your routine with us. Sounds like you’re doing some amazing things for yourself. I agree with you COM Aide would be great if everybody could afford to hire a coach or trainer, even if just to learn proper form
x
Great advice. My current favorite YT lifting videos are Caroline Girvan Iron series, and Cheryl Coulombe. These "follow along" videos using minimal equipment (dumbbells) are excellent.
Hi Jeannette, thank you for being here and for telling us what has been working for you. I will check out both of those channels.
x
Great video Claudia! I lift weights 4x a week and do progressive overload. I lift heavier weights and try to get between 8-10 reps. So important as we age to be strong and have muscle. I do a lot of walking as well. Hoping to be self sufficient in these later years. Take care! ❤
Hi Debbie, it sounds like you are doing all the right things to work towards being self sufficient and healthy long into your older years!
xx
Yes, please more videos like this.
Hi, glad you enjoyed this and thank you for being here

This is so true! Because of you I'm trying to life heavier weights, at least 4x a week. I'm trying to do some sort of weight training every day. Ii'd love to see a video of your full routine 🙏
That is awesome and it makes me happy to hear that you are lifting heavier and more frequently
xx
Don't do it everyday your body needs to rest between sessions
Dear Claudia,
Yes, I’d love to see a video on your personal workout plan. Also could you talk about how to stay motivated? Especially when exercising at home! The only thing that makes me commit is going to a nice gym that offers variety of classes but I know one day I might not have access to that! Seeing how you’re committed to exercising for many years is inspiring ❤
Thank you for your lovely comment! I know it can be hard to stay motivated and I can definitely talk about what helps me
❤️
Thank you dear Claudia for sharing this research and your insights on the importance and benefits of weight training. I’ve lifted weights since my early 20s, but I’ve become inconsistent lately. I need and want to do better! Thank you for the inspiration xoxo ❤
Hi Tina, great to hear from you. And great job becoming more consistent with weight training ❤️
You're the best, Claudia. You're inspiration for me ❤
aww, thank you Fran ❤️
xx
Thank you for this helpful video. Please continue to make more videos like this to motivate us! I've been lifting light and heavier weights recently. Taking creatine seems to strengthen muscle tone as well. I'd be interested in seeing a new work out video, especially some exercises that we can do using our own body weight and furniture at home (without having to go to the gym).
I am so glad this was helpful!
Good job lifting weights! And I agree, Creatine does help, I take some as well.

@claudiaglows Hello Beautiful! I love that study that found that we can continue to build muscle at any age!!💪🏼Of course we want to see you workout! Big hugs!🫶🏻🩷xo

Hi Claudia, hope life is finding you well, you look great , happy and healthy. Yes, I would luv a workout video from you, that would be awesome & so helpful. Personally I lift 5 lb weights 2 to 3 times a week. Was thinking of increasing, but now I definitely will. Thanks for this topic, was very informative & personally challenging 💪🏻💪🏻 Hi. From San Diego🌴🌤️
Hi Catherine, I am glad this was helpful. I am also glad to hear you are lifting some weights, but yes, going a bit heavier might be helpful :)
xx
Watcha' Claudia, I'm a 57 yo man and have been lifting weights , on and off, for about 30 year's , my current regime is 2 days on followed by a days rest and then repeat(so I'm training 4 times a week)..I use heavy weights and train all the major muscle groups over the course of a week, with everyone being different my advice to people is 'find your sweet spot' of unmanageable resistance when it comes to forming a routine...my routine is 3 sets of 10 with a 30 second break between sets, and like I said this is with heavy weights...with weight training it's all about finding out what works for you ,. I am very happy with the routine I'm currently on and my core strength is at maximum👍, it's very High Intensity , enjoyable, and takes about 30 minutes a session (focusing on 3 muscle groups per' session). thank you Claudia for another great upload on a very important subject, ps, your looking very toned' Claudia (arms, upper body)...your routine is obviously working for you👏
Hi Andy, I really enjoyed reading your comment and learning a bit about your routine. I agree, we all need to find what works for us and I am glad you have found such a great routine.
Thank you for your kind words and for being here

You’re looking good Claudia 😍😍😍
Thank you beautiful

Hi Gorgeous, This was very helpful and never quite understand how muscle benefitted bone health. I have 5lb free weights (would like to increase) and use those a couple of times a week. If you have time to develop an exercise routine for beginners that would be great. Have a wonderful week! xo
Hi gorgeous, I’m really glad this was helpful. I’m also also glad to hear that you lifting some weights. He’s going a bit heavier might be helpful. ;-)
And I can definitely make that video. Lots of love to you.

@@claudiaglows Thank you so much!
@@christinemack2153 xx
Thank you Claudia! Yes, please do a video or more of how you workout. I'm interested in incorporating strength, plyometrics, SIT, and mobility (Dr Stacy Sims recommended protocols). I really would love a workout "along with me" video that incorporates these things throughout the week. I believe you have stated in the past that you do not do those, but I can still hope...😅😊. 🤗
Hi Tonya, I can definitely make that video. As far as a exercise video you can follow along, you’re right I used to make those, but they were not very popular. If there is enough demand, I can do one though. Thank you so much for being here, have a wonderful rest of your day. ❤️
You look amazing Claudia 💥 I have strength trained for many years (57 yo). You're an inspiration! 💞🐕🌼

Thank ypu once again for the goot topic! I do lift weights from many years with some stops due to life events. I separate my exersises in 5 or 6 days of the week, so workout time is like 30mins. ( aiming not to raise too much the cortisol). Additionally make mobility sessions 4 -5 times a week + 2 days i go to a argentine tango lessons :)
Hi Dora, it sounds like you have a great program! Thank you for sharing it with us. Love the argentine tango lessons :)

Great video Claudia! I started alternating 10-min upper and lower body workouts using bands and dumbbells (to a video) about 3-4 months ago. It is pretty fast paced and most reps are 10-12 and 3-4 sets. I think I should probably be lifting heavier shorter reps but that’s hard to do to this video, and this video seems to be the only thing I have been able to stick with. Would love to see your workout Claudia!
Hi, I am glad to hear that you are consistent with what you are doing. It might be good to lift a bit heavier here and there, but again, consistency is what is most important. I will make that video :)

I have been so on and off with weightlifting through my life. I started young, but there have been long periods without lifting at all. For about 20 years, my focus was yoga. I had just gotten back into the gym for about a year or two when Covid hit. My gym closed and there’s not one nearby that I could go to. The ones I’ve gone and checked out are filthy (can’t believe how lax some gyms are about keeping their weights and public areas clean). So I bought bands, which I don’t know how to use and I also have 10 pound and 5 pound dumbbells as well as a 10 pound kettle ball, but I really don’t know what to do with them. I watched a few videos but it seems like after I follow random people I end up injured or strained.
I never in 1 million years thought that I would get osteoporosis. But during menopause, I went from osteopenia to osteoporosis in a year, despite doing things to prevent that from happening. 😢 people, take note-it can hit you hard!
I am so sorry to hear that you have been having a hard time getting back into lifting. There are some simple, exercises you can do with your 10 lbs. You can do your whole body and do it at home. Add a bit of plyometrics and it should be helpful.
May I ask if you use HRT? I am asking because of the osteoporosis. One viewer shared she too has osteoporosis and lifts heavy, but I am not sure if she is also on HRT.

Some of my weights, have embarrassingly been at arms length, but lonely ☺️. Tho I do some cardio… (as do my parents close to 90), I mostly only think ab the weights. Ur info is so interestingly informative that I picked them up during this video + will now make ‘em a part of my weekly routine. Ty so much for this beautiful video, by beautiful u🥰♥️
Hi Valerie, I am so glad this video inspired you to pick up your weights again! I know it can be hard at times to be consistent, but hopefully you will be able to make it part of your routine again
Thank you for your very kind words and for being here.

Hi Claudia: I do yoga 2x week; spin 2x week; strength training 2x week. The weight training can be lifting by myself (with video), barre class, or barre "define" (lift heavy) class. One day off.
I'm not quite happy with the regime, as I'd like to build some impact into my workout.
I'm one of those people who thinks the benefits of hormone therapy are being oversold right now (as opposed to HrT, or just estrogen, for people w/o uterus...estrogen-only therapy is incredible). Nevertheless, I do think hormone therapy has shown some promise for bone density. I'm mindful that, without hormone therapy, I need to double-down on this. I'm considering a weighted vest. I had to stop running b/c of a birth defect in my hip, but I might ask my doctor if it's ok to run just a little bit for the bone benefits.
Would be interested in your detailed thoughts on working out, with several options presented each objective.
Hi, it sounds like you have a great routine already. But yes, using a weighted vest could be helpful, also doing some plyometrics daily.
Personally, I am a huge fan of HRT, but I know it is not for everyone and it is nice to see studies showing that even without HRT weightlifting will help with bone density.

Hey, you guys, I have missed you! Thank you so much for being here
Thanks for this very informative video. I started lifting weights 6 months ago. I also found the research conflicting..how many reps and how many sets. I would love to see an exercise video!
Hi Linda, glad to hear you enjoyed this. I really think that consistency, is the most important. And I am making that video right now :)

Thank you. Please make a video on how you work out. It would be very good if you do all the repetitions so that you can do the exercise yourself at the same time

I have to be really careful due to health conditions. My dr recommended Pilates because I should be in a pool, but can’t because of still having to do all C safety protocols. (Isolating has been okay but does wear on me. I don’t have a choice though.) I don’t know what Pilates are. I have hand weights from 1 lb up to 10 lbs. I try to use the 8 lbs a couple times a week. I used to love yoga, but can’t do it anymore because of overstretching. Now exercise all depends on how well my medication is working or not. I have to be really careful. Already broke my ankle at 49, have some strange type of arthritis affecting my little finger and toes out of the blue at 51. I do what I can. It’s hard. Would definitely love a video to help us! I enjoyed this subject because honestly, I don’t expect to make it to 60. Thank you for this, Claudia! Sending love and hugs. 💜💜💜💜
Hi gorgeous, thank you so much for being here. I’m sorry to hear that you have to be so careful, but I applaud you for doing whatever you’re capable of doing. I think it is certain we all have to work around things, and the most important thing is just to keep going.
Sending it your way ❤️
@@claudiaglows You know what?! This was motivating enough for me to do a couple reps with my 8 lb weights and a couple with my 10 lbs! Thank you, Claudia! I have ankle weights I use sometimes but today I did the dumbbell arm weights. I’m trying to figure out if weighted vests are a good idea for me or not. Anyway, I appreciate you sooo much. 💜💜💜💜

Hi Claudia. I don't lift weights but I'd love to know what you do and what a program for beginners looks like. You look great. Thanks for the informative video❤
Hi Margaret, thank you so much for your account and for being here. I will definitely make a video on my workouts.
❤️
Claudia I would very much like to see your workout routine. I'm 58F and I've not done any strength training since my late 20's 🫣🫣 but as 60 is fast approaching I need to prepare my body for getting older. I've recently lost 50+lbs and a lot of muscle mass went with it. I'm not a gym person anymore so any at home exercises that you can recommend using dumbbells or resistance bands I'd be grateful ❤
Hi, congratulations on losing 50+ lbs! You know, I am not really a gym person either and the whole time we lived in Europe, I worked out from home. We have dumbbells and kettlebells and it is really all you need. I would say get a set of 10-15 lbs dumbbells and maybe, depending on your strength a bit heavier one as well and you can do your whole body with that. I will show some exercises I do with dumbbells in my upcoming video
xx
Please do a video so we knowhat and how to keep fit. I'm almost 64 so definitely need your help.

Claudia,
This is such an informative video. I appreciate your honesty and how resourceful you always are. Especially, when it comes to the clinical studies and scientific data 👍🏻.
I try and do my few reps with 2lbs weights (I need heavier ones 😂), but often forget…I combine weight lifting with a very nutritious and yummy protein shake. It helps build my lean muscle mass 💪🏻.
Yes 🙌 to an exercise video, showing us how you make it work.
Be well lovely Claudia 💗🤗
Hi Victoria, I am glad you enjoyed this. And now I am hungry for a yummy protein shake :)
What is your favorite protein powder?

Entschuldigung Claudia (I hope I spelt it correctly 😊),
I wanted to answer you sooner, but I have been sick with a bad cold/flu.
I have been enjoying the Isalean protein shakes for three years, and I also love how they taste 😋.
What really perked my interest, were the clinical studies that show significant increase in lean muscle mass while restoring gut health too!
Which ones have you been using?

Hi Claudia, I would love to know more about your workout routine. Also which jumprope you like the best! :)
Hi Aimee, I actually just uploaded my workout video last week. I hope you will enjoy it. I use the dope rope and really like it.
Claudia, do you have a video that recommends a good first peel to use? I saw the last one you did (At home TCA peel), but that looks a little intense for my first time. Should I start out with a more mild peel or will that TCA peel be okay for my first one? Thank you for your suggestion.
Hi, I really like this peel, for beginners or advanced ua-cam.com/video/IiYgdTsOr44/v-deo.htmlsi=uwqYyXsw1eED_W7X
It is easy to do and not painful or scary
I also recently did a vitamin A peel, which I really liked, and that one can be done milder, for beginners ua-cam.com/video/XYP9VlSVOwk/v-deo.htmlsi=oh3UxkdeaeKIy5ey
You could also start with a Mandela acid or glycolic acid peel. I have not tried either, but have heard that people really like platinum skincare which sells different peels, including the two mentioned

Hi Claudia! Please, rate the new Cetaphil Redness Relieving Daily Moisturizer with SPF 40... It is tinted!!!!! I am loving it! They have one similar that is SPF 20, but SPF 40 is an improvement. I hope you read my comment!!!!

I bought some resistance bands but haven't started using them yet
Do you have an opinion on those??
Hi Carol
I think they can definitely be a value, but personally prefer free weights or dumbbells
x
Hi Claudia. I’m a 56-year-old woman and I have been doing resistance training for my entire adult life. I have always lifted heavyweights, and while I am no bodybuilder, I have had good muscle tone my entire life. You can imagine my surprise when I had a bone density test a year ago, and it showed that I have osteoporosis in my hips and osteopenia in my spine. My doctor concludes that it’s possibly due to beingdue to being postmenopausal and my genetics. So my question is, have you done any research on vibration plates? I did quite a bit and I bought a vibration plate. I am using it daily for at least 15 minutes. I’m not taking prescription medication, but I am taking supplements, in the hopes that I will slow the progression of the osteoporosis. What are your thoughts on these vibration plates? Thank you in advance.🙏🏻
Hi Bridget, I am sorry to hear that even though you have been so consistent with your weights, you still have osteoporosis. May I ask if you are on HRT?
According to the studies I quoted, even without HRT, our bones will benefit from weight lifting, but I am curious to hear if you are using any replacement.
I have not done research on vibration plates, but will do so and really hope you will benefit from using one. Please keep us posted
xx
@@claudiaglows I am not currently on HRH. I considered it initially but now I am about five years post menopause. I’m curious as to whether it would be an advantage at this point. I realize had I done it in the beginning I may be facing a different situation. Thank you for your willingness to look into the vibration plates. I have high hopes for it. I’ll have another DEXA scan in about a year and will definitely keep you posted. also, I’d like to thank you for your content. I’m one of those silent watchers who do not usually comment but I’m always sure to hit that like button.💗
@@bridgetyoung9873 you know, I have talked to Dr Mathis about this, and he seems to think it is never too late to go on HRT to reap the benefits. So it might be something you want to discuss with your doctor. And yes, please keep me posted. Thank you so much for all your love and support, I really appreciate you.

@claudiaglows I have a consulting business for 25 yrs for nutrition and anti-aging. Many good results using the 3 together really helps with muscle wasting, memory issue's, stability, arthritis, skin texture and libido. Love all your videos
@@sncnutrition7118 Great to hear. I am going to take a look at HMB. Do you have any brands you recommend?

@claudiaglows Vital Proteins for collagen. Muscle feast for creatine. HMB has a patent so any would do. I like Metrx brand, NutriCost brand, Optimum Nutrition brand and Muscle tech has a HMB free acid form called Clear Muscle.
@@sncnutrition7118 thank you so much
