Gentle Stretching for Seniors, Beginner Exercisers
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- This gentle stretching workout will help improve your flexibility, circulation, and posture and relieve stress. It can be done any time of day and before or after any yes2next exercise video. Perfect for seniors and beginner exercisers.
As we age, it is more important to stretch regularly to combat the loss of mobility and flexibility that naturally happens. We recommend making stretching part of your daily routine -- at least three times a week or everyday if you can.

Finally, a video I can do that is do-able. Thank you. So many seem to wipe me out and leaves me in pain. This I will do again and again.
Wonderful. We're so happy this video is just right for you. Thank you so much and see you soon.
YES, exactly, I'm barely middle aged but my body is so inflexible that all the other 'stretching for beginners' videos on youtube were just too difficult to even begin the moves, too painful and impossible. These stretches here are perfect. I almost fee like this video would benefit from having its title changed to "Gentle Stretching for Inflexible people and Seniors, Beginner Exercises"
😊😊😊
I’m 53 and in post-menopause and was looking for gentle stretches for my sore, morning joint pain and this was perfect! I love your relationship with your mom - it made me miss my mom who I lost 3 years ago. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos!
Thank you! Glad the gentle stretching workout has helped you! 👏 Stretching in the morning helps to keep your muscles and joints flexible and it just feels sooooo good as it wakes up your body! 👏 Pleased too that we can bring memories of your sweet mom to you! Moms are forever special! Hope you find other workouts to help you! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you so much for your videos! I’m currently a college student in Taiwan and have been suffering mental illness like heart palpitations, chest tightness and breathing difficulty etc. I cannot do intense workout and therefore found your videos out of blue on UA-cam. I really have to show my sincere appreciation to you and your mom, your videos are really helpful for me ! Thank you so much!!! ❤
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed the workouts and found them helpful! Exercising is one of the best things you can do for your mind and body! Doing so creates endorphins in the brain and your mind will feel better from them! A positive mind means a healthy body and vice versa, a healthy body means a positive mind! 👏 Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! 🧡
At 70 years of age I’ve started doing these stretches and some of your other exercises. I can’t tell you what a difference it’s made. I feel great plus getting a bit of shape back is fantastic. I really enjoy doing this everyday now, I won’t be stopping anytime soon either. Many thanks.
Thank you! Happy to have you working out with us! 👏 As a young 70 it’s terrific that you are exercising and feeling the immediate difference it makes in your mind and body! 👏 Keep up the good work! You are doing great! We will look for you at our next workout! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I am 74 and love stretching along with the two of you. It is so helpful to see the little lady my own age participating too. I have been doing 10 minutes daily of your videos for several months. I find it reassuring to see the loving energy between the two of you and the way that you just notice the cat and let the cat do her thing. God bless you both.
Thank you! Happy as a young 74yo you enjoy stretching with us! You are keeping your muscles flexible and strong by doing so! YAY! 👏10min daily is terrific! Mom and Mochi 😻 say Hi and to keep up the good work! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I am 59 years and haven't stretched. I feel the need too now as I am feeling a lot of aches and pains. I'm going to try your stretching excercises.
Hope to feel the energy again.
Thx for sharing the video.
I'm 68 and was in pretty good shape until I was diagnosed with cancer last year. It required surgery and I've been working hard to get back to a good physical fitness routine. This video has been part of that recovery. I appreciate your gentle approach and the inclusion of your mother. I'm not sure I could handle watching a gung-ho super jock every day for months on end, but I really enjoy joining you, your cat, and your mother.
Thank you for working out with us and for your kind words! Pleased to know we can help. As a young 68yo your strong inner strength will help your body to renew itself and to get strong again. Exercising will help! Start at a pace that is comfortable and slow no need to rush! Slo Mo gives your heart and muscles the same good benefits! Mom and Mochi 😻 say Hi and are rooting for you to get stronger soon! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! 😻❤️
I am an inactive 37 year old, so these are perfect for me, since I often feel like my body is 87 years old! The kitty is a bonus.
So sorry for the delay in replying! Somehow your message slipped by us. We applaud you for making a commitment to get healthier. It's just important to move at your own pace. We're so happy to be by your side to help you get stronger. Mochi says meow! 😻
I really enjoy your simple work outs (& the cat). I love that you have "Mom" with you, and the way you look at her and sort of check up on her. I am also a senior citizen and kinda watch her as much as I watch you. I love the way you have just enough "banter" between you , not enough to distract, just right. Keep on doing what you do. (the photo is not me!!) P.S.-I notice that Mochi actually does some stretching, too--on Mom's sneaker sometimes!!
Thank you for your kind words -- we appreciate you being so observant! We are happy our videos are just right for you. You're right - Mochi is really good at stretching. My mom is his cat mom and he loves to touch her sneakers like a little love tap. So sweet. Thank you for spending time with us! We look forward to seeing you soon! ❤️
KITTY! Love that he just comes along and joins you! Love these videos! Thank you so much!
Yes, he's a funny little guy! Thank you for working out with us!
Thank you so much for demonstrating these gentle stretches. I was having mobility problems due to my weight, but now that I am starting to shed some of the pounds, I really needed a way to ease back into moving. I look forward to watching more of your videos. And by the way, I love your cat... I have 2 cats myself! 😺
Thank you! So glad you joined us! You are doing great! Stretching is important to keep your muscles relaxed but strong! 👏 They will help to keep you moving and active to get fit. It’s okay to start at your own pace and one that is comfortable for you! Mom says remember the tortoise! Mochi 😻 says Hi to you and your 2 cats! Meow Meow! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Enjoyed doing your short workouts.....it is nice that a senior is doing it and not an young person showing what an elderly person has to do...makes a lot of difference... thanks
So happy to hear it. My mom is honored to inspire you. It is a true joy for me to create these videos with her to help you. Thank you so much for sharing and working out with us. Keep moving and see you soon!
I’m 62 & having joint & muscle issues related to medications. Doctor advised me to try 5-10 minutes of stretches a couple of times a day. I just found & followed this video & I’m beyond thrilled with it. Simple & easy, but can feel the stretch. I’ve subscribed & plan to dig into a few more as my body allows. Thank you so much!!
Thank you! Glad you found us and Welcome! Happy the workout is helping! 👏 Stretching keeps your muscles flexible and strong plus it makes the body feel soooo good too! Keep it going! Pleased as a young 62yo you will also look at other yes2next.com workouts to keep your body strong! That's the way to do it! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Your warm up and stretching are just my speed and make me feel real good. I am so glad to have found your videos.
Wonderful. So happy you like them! We're glad you found us! Thank you!
Love you videos. Started with the 25 minutes dance/walk one, have now added the gentle cardio and the stretches, so now doing nearly an hour a day. Fell so much better for it. Brilliant during lockdown. Thank you.
We love to hear you feel better after doing our videos! Congratulations on building up to nearly an hour a day! Wonderful! Keep up the great work. We're so happy we can help you stay active during lockdown. Thank you so much and see you soon!
I truly love working out with you and your mom after my workouts.
I'm 72 and activity is so important as we age. GOD BLESS you both ❤😂
Thank you! That's nice to know! Glad you enjoy working out with us! We love ❤️it too! As a young 72yo exercising is the best to staying strong now and for your later years too! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Awww thank you both for your response dear ladies. GOD BLESS you both 🙏💓👍
Just getting started on a workout regime. I love this video. It's something I can do even if I've had trouble with a more vigorous workout that I maybe had to stop. I feel like I'm still doing something good for me! Thank you!
YES!! Do something good for you! That's the spirit. The fact that you are starting a workout regime is a cause for celebration. Just take it slow and at your own pace as you're doing. You will build up strength and endurance over time -- your body will get used to the activity and want to do more! Keep up the great work.
Boy I really needed this today. My body was tired and didn’t want to do much of anything. I need to stretch more for sure! Thanks for being here for me and all of us.
Thank you! Good to see you! Hope stretching helped you to feel better! Why not give your body some TLC to rest and renew! Chillin is good to do, and your body will feel better mentally and physically too! Let's try it! We are here with another workout when your body is ready to go again! Take it easy! ❤️
I have been doing the Yes2next video exercises since May of 2021. I love the variety to pick from: balance, cardio, stretching, bands, etc. The New Years Challenge program was great: It covered everything and is excellent for achieving cardio/strength weekly criteria. And I especially enjoyed Day 7 which presented stretching/breathing and basically relaxation exercises...it was great. Once the pandemic began my out-of-home exercise program was cancelled (still is) and I am so thankful for your videos and valuable input about why we are doing these exercises.
Congratulations on completing the Challenge and staying active despite the pandemic. 👏 We are so honored to be by your side. It warms our hearts to provide a variety of workouts that enable you to keep moving.Thank you for being with us since May 2021! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you, April and Aiko for these videos. I stay focused. Thanks for explaining the benefits!!
Thank you! Love ❤️ having your company! Keep it going and keep moving with us!
Thank you so much. I am 54 and needed something easy and accessible on a video.
I am also a Christian and I am having a hard time finding things that are not complicated and not based in yoga
This one is a keeper thank you so much!
Thank you! Glad you like the workouts! You are doing your body good! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I discovered your channel when I was searching for exercises for seniors. I "auditioned" a few, but stopped looking when I found you! This is exactly what I was looking for.
We are honored you chose us! :) Thank you for sharing and for working out with us!
Love the kitty! My cats do that too when I’m stretching.
Thank you! Mochi can’t resist sometimes to remind all that he is still around!
I was in so much pain this morning (esp. lower back); now I feel a lot better after doing these stretches with you. Thank you for these gentle workouts. It's nice to have "someone else" to exercise with; your videos are enjoyable and not noisy, which is great!
Happy we can help you to feel better! Stretching is important. Just continue to stretch at a slower gentle pace as you are doing! We love ❤️ your company!
i just did the streches this morning still sore with my hit the day before. love watching mochi talking a lot today., thank you ladies.
Good that you stretched but if you feel sore take a break! Your muscles got a good workout so that’s a good thing but rest is ok too! Mochi is a talker! He likes to remind us that he has arrived and we should take notice! oh oh! 😃 Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I keep coming back to this as it really relaxes me. I think I’ll start using it near bedtime. Thank you.
Great idea! It will help your mind and body to relax! Thank you for joining us! ❤️ So sorry for the delay in replying. For some reason a slew of late comments popped up today! Grr!😖 Let’s hope problem is fixed!
We are so sorry for the delay in replying. Somehow your message didn't appear right away. Glad to hear these stretches are relaxing. It's great to do them before bedtime. Pleasant dreams!
I am so thrilled I found your channel, April. Your exercises and programs, with your lovely mother Aiko, have given my mom and me some great time together. Age 52 & 89. Perfect options for her best days and even her low energy days. Your options for different levels have been wonderful and suit our needs. Love the cat who admires you during filming. Thank you so much.
Thank you! So glad you found us too! Happy you enjoy the workouts and that you and your young 89yo Mom are working out with us! That's terrific! Moms make great workout buds (I should know) and what fun to stay strong together! Mochi 😽says HI and thanks for noticing him! (He loves ❤️ the attention) Please check our website yes2next.com for a playlist and also sign up via email for other healthy tips! Great to have you join us! Look forward to working out with you and your Mom soon! Keep moving with us! ❤️😽
I'm delighted with the results these exercises bring. I can now stand on one leg and do the ankle movements all the way through before changing legs.
Fantastic! Congratulations! We're so proud of you. Keep up the great work. There's no stopping you now! We're so honored and happy to be by your side. ❤️
it is so nice to have a video where you can start easy and be able to work to higher levels. Also nice to see mother/daughter doing this together. I'm excited to see how I can gradually get more fit and have better movement. I think this is great what you two ladies are doing to help us be a more healthy/fit version of ourselves . Way to go !!!!
Thank you for joining us! Exercising is the best thing you can do for your heart and muscles! Start at a pace that is comfortable and build from there! Try 5 minutes one day and the next 10 and so on! By doing so, your body will feel more energetic and stronger with each workout! We are here for you! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I would definitely enjoy these every day. At 82 it is so important.
We totally agree. You are 82-years-young. Keep moving and stretching!
Thank you very much the seeming easyness gave me the courage to start!
So happy to hear it! Stay with it. You can do it!
Just happened on this today and I LOVE IT! You both are adorable! I had foot surgery two months ago and just haven't done any exercise recently. This will help, gently. Thank you for doing this.
So happy you found us! It warms our heart to hear we can help you recuperate gently. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Just perfect for me! I’m 65 and exercise regularly and this pace and music great.
So happy to hear it's just right for you. We love to help you stay active and flexible. Thank you for stretching with us! See you soon!
Kitty stretches! Such a pretty cat. I enjoyed this stretch. Thanks! 🙏😻🐈
Aww, thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it!
I tried this stretches with my husband. We love it and very gentle form of exercise. Thank you, guys. More power !
Thank you! So nice to have you both working out with us! 👏 Happy you enjoyed the workout! Stretching keeps your muscles strong and flexible and it makes your body feel soooo good too! Keep it going and keep moving (and stretching)with us! See you soon! ❤️
Enjoy morning stretches. Help with my arthritis and back surgery. Thank you so much. I luv your mom. If she can do it I can do it.
Thank you! Yup, early morning stretches feel sooo good to wake up your muscles and get you ready for the day! 👏 Mom says HI and thanks for your kind words! It's true, she says, "if Mom can do it, so can you!" You did it too! YAY! Nice work! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I really liked the video and the two of you are so nice together with Kitty
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Thank you, this is lovely. This is something I can actually do.
Wonderful. We're happy to hear it's just right for you. We invite you to try our 5-minute workouts that are also gentle and doable. bit.ly/3sWJyD3
Hi April and Iko! You ladies are so wonderful! I have been working out with you both every morning for the pass few days. It has been raining and I haven’t been able to go out doors to work out. I have shared your video with several dear people in my life. Keep up the good work ladies! Have A Glorious Aloha Day 💕🥰🌺
Thank you and Aloha to you, as well! So happy to be working out with you in the mornings! What a great way to start each day! 👏We hope your friends join us, too! Keep moving with us! See you in the morning! ❤️
It is amazing how this workout showed up on the very day I needed it. Perfect for warming up to do gardening. Less aches from gardening afterwards. Also got rid of an old arthritis spot in my back. Seems like a miracle! Much love and peace to you both.
Thank you! Timing is everything! Glad the workout came just in time for gardening! 👏 Always good to stretch your muscles before working in the garden. Glad too that the workouts are helping your back! Your body is loving 🧡your efforts to stay strong! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! 🧡
Really enjoyed this stretching exercise, you have a lovely tone to your voice and very calming to listen to whilst doing my routine all the way back in the UK. Thank you both.
We're so glad we can bring peace to your day. Thank you so much.
Mochi feels somewhat left out ! He wants to move too ! 🙃😍
LOL! Yes, we play with him during the day, but that's apparently not enough! 😄
Thank you for these gentle exercises. And it's free. I am 72yrs old and since Covid I have neglected my physical body. I know it's no excuse for not exercising.
I started doing gentle yoga, but can afford the once a week course.
I have saved this UA-cam to my
"what's app".
Bless you for including your mum. ❤❤
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the workouts! It's good as a young 72yo you are exercising! 👏Staying strong now and for your later years is important! Good you are doing so once a week! That's the way to stay strong! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Ive recently started doing these videos. I find them helpful and at my current level. I love the mother/daughter team. Easy to follow and modify. Also can increase reps which is great! Thank you for sharing your tips. You get us seniors!
Hi Diane! We are so happy our workouts are just right for you. We're honored to help you keep moving and build strength at your level and pace. Keep up the great work! 👏❤️
I hate the “S” word with a passion. This video was made for me. I love all your workouts. Than you ❤️
Yay! Glad to hear it. Thank you!
I think 🤔 the kitty 🐱 is hungry. Sounds like he’s saying feed me now please.
Mochi loves to eat! He is a very vocal cat and definitely lets us know when he is hungry. He got his wish and had lunch when we finished the taping!
I do these several times throughout the day, depending on the kind of day I have had. Makes me feel so good and eases anxiety. I am truly grateful.❤ Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you! That's the way to do it! 👏 Your muscles are loving 🧡how you care for them! Keep stretching and keep moving with us! See you soon! 🧡
When I stretch it's like my muscles are saying ooohhh! Thank You . It's great to stretch and relax, like your thanking your body for all that it does for you, love it !
Yes, exactly! Keep on stretching!
I'm 60 Years Old And My Favorite Exercises Aerobics and Calfstretching Which Is Lifting Up and Down On Those Tippytoes. I Wanna Request Those Exercises For The Two Of You On The Next Exercise Video on UA-cam Love You All & God Bless and Have A Fit Day...
Hi there! You are 60 years young! Great job staying active and doing aerobics and calf stretching. Here is a one of our leg workouts that includes the heel raises that I think you like. ua-cam.com/video/60fBjmYOGgw/v-deo.html Keep up the awesome work! We're honored to help you get stronger! 💪
After yesterday's 1-hour workout, I woke up a bit sore, so I searched for something easier to do. My plan was a simple warm up cool down combo, but this video caught my eyes, and now some of the soreness is gone! Thank you!
Thank you! That's great to know! Happy the workout helped! Stretching the muscles keeps them flexible and loosens any tightness. Soreness is actually a good sign that your muscles got a good workout but if the soreness lingers give the muscles some TLC and time to chill! That's always helpful too! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you sooo much for providing this stretching workout. I haven't done any exercise in way too long. I appreciate it!!
So happy you enjoyed it. Don't stop! Keep moving and stretching!
Never had such a great stretch workout I feel like I win the Lotto with my new Body
WONDERFUL! Never thought the Lotto would have competition with our stretching session! We're honored it makes you feel like a million bucks! Keep stretching and moving!
Very nice video; very personable women. I'm starting my mornings with this little stretch routine. I'm 71 and am so over getting up in the morning and being stiff and sore. Where will I be in five years?! I've also included a light weight routine, walking, eye exercises and Yoga for Seniors (DVD that I've used for five years). I think with consistent effort and a--more or less--plant-based diet, I'll be able to get rid of the joint pain and stiffness.
We love your spirit! You are 71-years-young and it's great you're thinking about the future. By making a commitment to exercise now, you will be stronger in five years and beyond. We salute your approach -- by being consistent with a healthy diet and exercise program of cardio, strength, balance and stretching, you are taking steps to get healthier and feel better. We're honored to help you on your journey! ❤️
My husband and I are trying the gentle back exercises. I have had 2 surgeries and this seems to help. I like the walking, warm up videos, and the foot video. I fell from a ladder breaking my right hip& arm and neck R hip 2 replacements, + 1 top of hip surgery & neck fusion L 2 -7- thank you so much for having these for older women & men. I am still walking at 76.
We applaud you for focusing on getting stronger after your accident and surgeries. Wonderful that you are 76 and still walking! We are so happy we can help you. Thank you so much for spending time with us. Wishing you and your husband good health and strength!
I started watching and working out with your program and I find it very helpful. The exercises are gentle and just about what is manageable for those facing certain physical difficulties. Thanks to you both, I now look forward to working out with you daily.
Thank you! Happy to have you working out with us! 👏 Do the workouts at a pace that is comfortable for you and build from there! Mom always says “to remember the tortoise!” Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you tomorrow at our next workout! ❤️
I am 65 and your exercises are helping to exercise and become more flexible and hopefully lose a few pounds!
Thank you! Glad you like the workouts! As a young 65yo it's good you are exercising to be strong and healthy now and also for your later years! Exercising is the way to do it! YAY! 👏Keep it going! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️
I had been doing your workouts for a while seated since I had been suffering from sciatica on my right side which affects lifting my right leg. Just letting you know how much I admire your easy, smooth workouts as I am applying for Medicare as I will be eligible in June, around my birthday. Keep up the good work and adore having your cat around as well.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the workouts and pleased they are helping you to keep moving! 👏 Seated exercising is good and just as beneficial to your heart and muscles! Congratulations too on the new chapter in your life in June! YAY! 👏All the more reason to keep moving to staying healthy and strong! See you soon! ❤️
This was a great way to start my "next day" after some serious dancing, for this senior! Thanks!
Thank you! That's great to know! It's always good to start the day feeling happy! Keep it going and keep moving (and dancing) with us! See you soon! ❤️
All set after the holiday steps. Thank you 🙏🇨🇦💕
Good evening ladies. I again completed a warm up , walking & gentile stretching workout & you still make this work feel so beneficial , entertaining & definitely healing . Your comments are on the mark , accepting & informative . I feel good for having moved again with you. I need to regain my strength & stamina which would not happen for me without your caring instruction . Thank you as always 💗 .
Thank you! Good to see you and happy to see you moving forward and feeling better. 👏 Keep taking slow and gentle steps. Your body is beginning to help you to get back on track! 👏You are fortunate to have one thing that will keep you focused and get your body back in sync and that is your strong mind! Be patient and all will be well. Keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️
I finally “stumbled” on your channel! I was looking for exercises. I exercise daily and know how important exercise is. I have had several injuries and know you have to “use it or lose it” when it applies to muscle fitness and strong bodies. I was told five years ago I would have to always us an ankle brace and cane after two main tendons in my ankle ruptured, and I kept getting small fractures in my foot. I have an electric trike I can pedal and throttle if my ankle tires. I always listen to my body, after learning that lesson the hard way. I walk without a cane, and no mobility scooter anymore. I exercise every day. Walking straight and proud. I will be 65 next month. I love your videos. Thank you.
We love your "never give up" spirit! We hope our gentle movements can help. Do our routines at a slower pace and continue listening to your body which you are already doing very well! 👏 Good job!
New follower here from 🇮🇪.👋
I just did 3 of your video exercises starting with this gentle stretching. Gentle exercises are what I would love to do.
I am over 50 and goes to the gym occasionally with my husband (because our children are pushing us to go ☺️)
I had fun doing the exercises with you both today. I love your mom and her humour.
And I love how your voice is calming yet encouraging.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for your kind words and hello to you in Ireland! Nice of you to join us! 👏 Happy you enjoy the workouts! You are doing good as a young 50yo to staying strong too! Doing 3 of our workouts plus the gentle stretching workout is terrific! You are doing your body good! Mom says Hi and to keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! .❤️
These are the best. I am doing these daily now along with a workout. Thank you for these.
Wonderful! Nothing like a great stretch with a workout! Keep up the great work! 🙏😊
Hello Ladies! So glad I found your site. The exercises I started with are the stretching exercise for beginners. I am 74 and most days I feel like I am in my 60's. I need something to give me that feeling and I found it with your site. I have not been walking much for at least a year-no excuses! I want to get back to walking at least 1 1/2 miles to start and work my way back to 3 miles a day. I know I have a ways to go and believe I can get there with your variety of senior exercises. Thank you so much! Lynne D.
Thank you and welcome! It’s never too late to start moving and exercising! it’s great that as a young 74 you want to start walking and building up your strength to do so! 👏 Stretching is good for your muscles and our workouts have shorter times to work your muscles. Start slow and build up from there! You can do it! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Grateful for having you at anytime to workout , completed walking then gentle stretching which has improved my feeling down therefore I again wish to thank you each .It's really fun spending time with you.
Thank you! Good to see you again! You did a good combo of workouts that will energize and relax your mind and body! It's fun having you working out with us too! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
This helped me a lot.............. I guaranty people this, especially people in quarantine
DO THIS WITHOUT STAYING in ONE PLACE......STRECH A LITTLE!! As well as that would save u from Corona virus too!!
We're so happy this helpful! Keep up the great work. Thank you so much!
I did a stretching exercise yesterday and today I woke up sore! This tell me the truth about my months of being sedentary! I'm looking forward to more to increase my flexibility. 🙏💌
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the workout! 👏 Stretching your muscles is important to keeping them strong and if you are feeling sore it's a good sign you gave them a good workout! Nice work! Give them a day of rest to renew! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

Love this stretching section. Thank you! 🤗💕🌷
Glad you liked it!! Thank you!
I have CP and am too much of a fall risk for outdoor walking (for now). These workouts are just what I need to stay active safely. Weight shifting and balance are areas I need to improve. These videos are perfect. Say hi to Mochi.
Thank you! Glad you like the workouts and find them helpful! That's important! 👏 Indoor walking is always a good alternative to being outdoors and it's good that you are aware of your safety and well-being too! Your inner strength to exercise is terrific and will help you to stay strong! 💪 Mochi 😻says Hi and loves ❤️your attention! He sends loving meows ❤️to you! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I haven't done this stretching video in quite some time although I always do the general stretches that come with the walking videos. I loved the calming music and I am sure my tight muscles appreciated this.
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the stretching workout! 👏 Doing so helps to keep your muscles flexible and strong plus it makes your body feel soooo good too! 👏 Your muscles are enjoying all your efforts for sure! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Remember doing these years ago. Now must get back to doing these again now that Spring is here. Love your cat! Very affectionate!
Thank you! Ahhh memories! The best is yet to come! Keep exercising and create new memories too! Mochi says hi and he will look for you at the next workout! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
This is wonderful and I love that you do it with your Mom❤️ Thank you.
I'm glad you like it. It is joy to partner with my mom to help you stay active. Thank you so much. ❤️
I noticed in your warmup video that you encouraged your mother to do as much as she can do. That was supportive. Recently my doctor recommended that I do daily stretching. Due to shoulder surgery many years ago, I have limited range of motion in one shoulder. I’ll do what I can do, even though one side will stretch more than the other.
I understand shoulder issues. I had frozen shoulder and with the help of a physical therapist was able to regain full mobility in my right shoulder. We applaud you for listening to your body and doing what you can, especially with your shoulder. In my experience, it took 6 months of regular stretching and exercises to regain my mobility. You can also try facing a wall and with your fingertips slowly crawl your fingers up the wall as high as you can-- like the itsy bitsy spider. Do 5-10 repetitions everyday. Build up slowly and stop if you feel any pain. We wish you flexibility and strength! ❤️
Especially relaxing after the strength workout. Definitely a must do.👍
Thank you! That's the way to do it! Strength and stretching! A good combo to stay healthy and strong! Keep it going! You are doing great and keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️
I just found these videos and love this mom/daughter team! I had been doing beginning yoga but have a finger injury so these stretches allow me to move without putting pressure on my hands. Thanks for making these great videos.
Thank you! Happy you found us too! Keep stretching! It gives your body that ahhhhh feeling! Hope your finger is better too! Keep moving and stretching with us! See you soon! ❤️
I have been doing gentle stretching for a year now. Started really really slow with only a few repititons and going up every few months. I am 65, have a pretty sedentary life style so realized I needed the stretching. I can now sleep on my right hip without pain all night as well as sleeping on left side without waking up to a "krick" in my neck the next day. Feeling now to add alittle more and found your video today. Thank you. Easy to follow, do and I just love your cat And mom being a part of this video. Doing alittle here and there adds up and I feel over more time, I will feel even better. Thank you so much!!!!!!!
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed the workout, and it is helping! Pleased that you are feeling better from exercising and are thinking of moving on to other workouts. That's the way to do it! 👏 Keep challenging yourself! Your heart and muscles are meant to move and will help you to get stronger! 👏 Mom and Mochi 😻 say Hi and YAY, YOU can do it! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
This gentle stretching exercise is so relaxing to do even after a walking exercise. 👍Thank you! 🤗👍
Thank you! That’s the best time to stretch! After walking it feels sooo good to stretch and relax the muscles! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
After suffering for months with muscle cramps in my thigh I went to a physiotherapist which I ended up overstretching so a different pain I decided to take matters into my own hands and came across your video for gentle stretching. I have been doing it daily for 10 days and already notice a difference. I am going upstairs with ease can bend down with no worries about pain and venture outside with confidence. Thank you so much for the video I will be doing this daily forever. I never want to experience what I went throughfor the past 9 months ever again. I will seek out your other videos as well and pass it on to my friends. Thank you!!

Hello again , tonight I completed a warmup , my 1st . walking workout , then gentle stretching . It was so pleasant to advance to the walking workout because my body has been so limited by resting in order to continue healing . It felt more difficult then I expected but also exhilarating to speed up my moving ! I'm feeling so weak & realize how very important it is to keep moving , but cautiously for now .Thank you for your guidance & availability to your patrons , especially me .
Thank you! Good to see you and great to see you taking the first steps to begin moving again! Stay at your gentle and easy pace and rest often. A few minutes a day of moving and resting will help your body to get used to moving again. Be patient! No need to rush. With your strong will and mind you can do it! A strong mind will always win! Keep it going and keep moving gently with us! See you soon! 🧡
Thank you for your videos, I am 76 and have been doing these each day and then for a 3/4 hrs walk after and I feel more balanced since I found you, I do some sitting and some standing.
Thank you! Happy you enjoy the workouts and doing one every day along with a walk is terrific! 👏That's the way to stay strong! As a young 76yo it's terrific that you are exercising and doing the workouts sitting or standing is smart and good for your heart and muscles too! Nice work! 👏Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Range of motion is improving! In January it was painful to attempt to reach behind my back. I could not place an object in or remove an object from my rear pocket. Today my palms were flat on my lower back with no pain whatsoever! I am most grateful for your guidance and support. It feels as if i am reclaiming my body inch by inch.
Fantastic! We're so proud of you! We love hearing that you're moving better and reclaiming your body slowly and steadily. You're making it happen -- we're so happy to help you!
This is so wholesome. I really enjoyed the family dynamic and the meows from Mochi were so cute. Really uplifted my body and mood. Thank you!
So happy you enjoyed it. It is a joy to help you get healthier and lift your spirits. Thank you for spending time with us. Keep stretching and see you soon!

This is actually doable, relatable, and the cat was the final selling point! I'm a 73 year old crazy cat lady with multiple cats who need me. Time to take better care of myself.
Thank you! That sounds perfect! As a young 73 and a cat lover ❤️ to boot, it’s time to take care of yourself as you do for your cats! You have to stay healthy and strong for yourself but for them too! Mochi 😻says hi to you and your cats! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️😻
