    Did day 1 and 2 a few days ago and really enjoyed it. Went swimming the other day and realised that I was in a far worse shape than I realised, so I just did day 2 again and will continue tomorrow. Then some more swimming, this has got to make me fitter! I am 77, live in Oslo, Norway.

    New from Alberta, Canada. I’m 70 years old and have right shoulder limitations (which I am now working on) and lower back problems. I just need to strengthen the surrounding muscles of both areas, and I am finding your workouts manageable and I enjoy them.😊

    Good Morning Meg, Thank you for day 2. I want to get stronger arms so I do not have problem opening cans or jars, I can pick up my grocery bags easily, pick-up and play with my grand-children without my arms getting too tired or sore.

    Good morning Meg. Using cans today from my daughters. Found one 3 pound weight! Putting things in my car - why I want stronger arms. Also to be able to clean ceiling fans without arms getting tired.

    From Manotick.... I could not find you on FB this morning, so here I am. Arm strength is important to me, it helps me somehow to get a better posture. I am also working on wrist strength specifically, so I won't have to ask hubby to open the new pickle or jam jar for me!

    GREAT workout! My entire upper body feels so good. You nailed it when you mentioned lifting groceries. My husband and I do grocery pickup and when we get home we do a tag-team thing where he opens the door and gets things ready in the kitchen and I grab the bags one or two at a time depending on how heavy they are and hand them in to him. Sometimes the employees pack the bags pretty heavy and I want to feel strong enough to lift at least two of those heavy bags at once instead of just one at a time. I'm watching from San Diego, CA. Thank you SO much and have a great night!

    Hello Meg, watched from Kanata, Ontario. I would like to improve my upper body strength so that I can lift heavy parcels more easily and also to be able to play more energetically with my granddaughters.
    Loved today's challenge video. Thanks.

    I just discovered your channel and I’m so grateful. I suffered a stroke a while back and it’s been difficult to get back into the swing. With your exercises on your channel can exercise any time without having to leave the house; and they are exercises I can do! I’m from Idaho Falls and it’s rather slippery out there this time of year. 🥶

    I was able to do a lot of the stretches even some of the standing ones using my two cans of olives I still had a problem with some of the standing exercises but I’m getting stronger. Because I’m using a computer desk chair I had to really stretch to do my arm stretches sometimes. But they were great this is Adriana from California and I have done your exercises several times now now. Looking forward to tomorrow exercises

    Tuning in from NYC. I HAVE OSTEOPOROSIS and scoliosis and love your videos. I avoid the twisting and hinge when I bend. I would just add we all need more protein and specifically good quality animal protein with complete amino acids and branch chain amino acids, especially as we age.
    Thank you for these videos. ❤

    I can't eat vegetables because I feel bad after them.
    Excellent exercises I had to do on a chair.
    As I wrote before, I am watching from Poland.
    Thank you very much, Meg. for this cool session. 💛

    Hi, Meg. I made the second day in a row (I'm running a day behind but I plan to do all five in a row). I want to improve arm strength to do some yoga poses more easily as well as gardening and yard work. Thanks for your videos. From the state of Georgia.

    Salutations everyone and Meg our hero 🏆 Having your expertise and encouragement is empowering! I do movement after each meal, I use weights MWF, which is what brought me to this video! I have type two diabetes and I am managing it well with videos like this, my primary care person, my nutritionist and my naturopath! I am grateful that I have full mobility at this time in my life, something I took for granted for too long 🙏🏼 I am watching from CT!
