I have followed you for not quite two years. Like this channel also. In an upcoming video could you show us some stretching exercises? That would be fantastic. Thanks a lot for your time!!!
We have a list of videos on deck that we will be pumping out. The next couple band videos will be intro and info, then after that we will start sharing some workouts. 🎊
Can you do a video on the foam roller? I feel like I am really missing out on how I can help myself recover with mine (I am about to order me a new one).
Hi Chris and Aaron! Thank you very much for this awesome overview of equipment! I like it! And....like you said, it is all pretty space conservation oriented. Seeing your foam roller gave me an idea. I have enduring back issues. But, for the last 3 or 4 months, some sciatica developed on my right hip. It seems that foam roller could be used to kneed the heck out of the area. Safe travels!
The foam roller works wonders for self-administered deep tissue massage. I have some nasty things going on in my hips and where my hamstring ties to my glute...working a foam roller has been helping a ton!
I have those orange bands and just don't know what the heck to do with them other than one or two moves. Would appreciate any video with ways to incorporate into a workout. Thanks!
We've got you covered! On deck we have a few intro videos: why the bands are our #1, intro to the bands, and then we will be putting out actual workouts 💃🏻
Omg i only just found your channel. I plan to live in an rv full time, but I'm keen on body building (noncompetitive). Ive been searching for a channel just like yours! Any suggestions for muscle building tools in an rv?
We will cover off on that in one of our upcoming videos. But the major reasons are loop offers improved variable resistance. Also, the lack of hardware and handles make the loop style more portable, lightweight, and simple to use 😁
Are there any particular workout programs you recommend for RVers? My family and I will be spending nearly a full month on the road this summer. I’m looking for something other than running and hiking to help me stay in shape. Thanks!
Yes! I 100% resistance training. The resistance bands are perfect for travel. Try to resistance train at a minimum of 3 x per week for 30-40 min max each session.
Tracking, something I don’t do. Do you have a guideline to share? I know it’s not good to repeat your exercises every day for the same muscle. I like a plan but don’t have one currently.
Tracking is where you record your reps and weights/resistance on specific exercises during your workouts. It helps you pick up exactly where you left off. For example, if you know you did 8 reps using the heavy band last time, you should try to do at least 8 reps using the heavy band this time plus an extra rep for progression. Always be pushing yourself to improve. It sounds like your question is asking about program splits. Some common program splits include full-body, push/pull/legs, body part splits, and upper/lower. I like to use 7-week programs for my clients. This duration allows you to fully exhaust the program and give yourself time to progress. Then, change it up.
Hi Kim! If space is the number one obstacle here I would actually recommend the resistance bands kit, or a set of adjustable dumbbells. If you are dead set on having fixed dumbbells, then perhaps a set of 5 pound + a set of 15 pound would be a good place to start. It's hard to say exactly since I don't know what your baseline strength is. And aging is such a relative term! I highly recommend looking into the resistance bands we have linked here :)

Hey there! Thanks for being a long-term supporter! We will add stretching to the list. We appreciate the suggestion, keep them coming!
Yes please do some stretching videos. I could really use some help there with shoulders, arms, back and hamstrings.
Thanks for the suggestion! Sounds like many of us struggle with stretching. Myself included!
I’ve been thinking about those bands for a while. Thanks for the video!
We’ll be sharing many more videos using the bands. They’re our favorite!
Thank you very much!
These suggestions are great! We need to fit cardio and strengthening once we are on the road! Great video!
Plan and schedule it in!
We enjoy your travel channel and now the healthy RV living. Your pup is adorable.
Thank you so much!!
Thanks Chris, we just ordered three bands and an exercise chart to get us started.
Keep reppin' the Twins! They are looking pretty good this year.
Nice. Enjoy the bands 💪🏼
Love this and you got me - I’m not great at working out in public - good job on this! Thanks for the info!
Bunches of love
Noelle
Keep at it sister! 💪
I am loving this new channel !
Thanks Molly. Hope you and Chuck are still kicking butt in the airstream!! 💪
Would love a more detailed video on using the bands. I have them but don’t get the most out of them that I could, I’m sure!
We have a list of videos on deck that we will be pumping out. The next couple band videos will be intro and info, then after that we will start sharing some workouts. 🎊
Thank you for sharing this information. 👍🏻❤️
You are so welcome!

Hey, Heather! We will add this idea to the list. Thanks for the suggestion!

So why are loop bands superior to handle or other style bands- in your opinion?🙂
We will cover off on that in one of our upcoming videos. But the major reasons are loop offers improved variable resistance. Also, the lack of hardware and handles make the loop style more portable, lightweight, and simple to use 😁

What lb. of weights would you suggest for someone who has very limited space (may have room for up to 2 sets of weights) and is an aging beginner?
Hi Kim! If space is the number one obstacle here I would actually recommend the resistance bands kit, or a set of adjustable dumbbells. If you are dead set on having fixed dumbbells, then perhaps a set of 5 pound + a set of 15 pound would be a good place to start.

@@HealthyRVLiving I second the bands! They are phenomenal especially when starting out.
@@HealthyRVLiving Thank you Chris! I will look into adjustable dumbbells. And look forward to you giving instruction on how to use resistant bands.
👍👍👍

Your links for undersun are all bad.
Thank you! And sorry about that... they switched to Amazon for all their sales distribution. We'll change them out. 👍
