      I love your workouts, thank you. I have this question: how often should I do the workouts? One a day I suppose, but alternating group muscles. Am I right? Thank you again for these exercises for us seniors

    Hi Mike @morelifehealth I come to this video often so thought I would mention that at the ending, where we sit and focus on relaxing the muscles, reminds me of years ago when I took what I think was called 'Bio Feedback Training' - (a very calming relaxing method) - so when I do the ending of this video I find I could easily fall asleep! As always - thank you for providing all these videos.

    Awake at 3.30 Qld time, and it's nice to be greeted with a cheerful physio. Posture is important and it's only since I began to exercise with your videos that I have been more conscious of the need to have 'shoulders back and down'. Thanks for the encouragement to relax, and let go of stress. When you mentioned 'thoracic spine', I thought of my husband who had a pathological fracture of that part of his spine, (from prostate cancer metastases - at home ) at the age of 70. He should be proud of me 7 years later looking after my posture at 3.30 in the morning. Thanks Mike. Appreciated the encouragement. Glad you had a good weekend too.
    When you talk about breathing, I say 'Oops, did I take my meds.

    Mike. Thank you for your enticing weekend escape vacation pictures. I just viewed this routine. It offered familiar individual exercises packaged for posture improvement. My entire back is ramrod straight, but I do have arthritis in my upper back and the ache makes me hunch a bit when I'm using my laptop, which I don't use much anyway. Still, these targeted exercises do help tremendously and I thank you for them. Can you please add this one to the collection of your exercises in whatever category you deem appropriate as I plan on returning to this routine often. Thank you again!...Anastasia

    I'm wondering if you have exercises to improve the lower back. I have a really sway back since I was a child, and it always causes me trouble. I am seeing a chiropractor, which helps but I know exercise would help also. I usually wake up with lower back pain.
