I injured my foot 2 weeks ago and I have not moved at all. Prior to injury I worked out at least 5 days/wk. My body has been so achy. I feel so amazing after this workout! Thank you!
I just recently found you on Pinterest Caroline Jordan. I am starting to get depressed as was I thought wasn’t going to be a two to three week down time is going on eight weeks. I recently found running to be my passion and now I can’t use my right foot. Your videos are so uplifting and I thank you for sharing!
I have never left a UA-cam comment but this literally made me cry tears of joy. I have been so down over my foot injury and it felt great to get some full body exercise, but more than that-I loved every encouraging word that you said-thank you!!!💜💜💜
I just had to exact same feeling and I cried. I have been dealing with a complicated ankle injury for over a year now. I have nearly lost hope and this work out saved my day and makes me feel so much better. :)
Ha! This is also the first video I have ever commented on. Loved this workout and the body positivity you bring to the narration. Especially the part about the cookie dough!
I’ve been guilty of lounging around and feeling sorry for myself. I feel the difference mentally and physically when I’m not consistently working out though, so I’m glad I found this channel!
I know this video is 3 years old but I finally experienced my foot and ankle injury that’s been going on over a month now. I am soooo happy I found your account!
After hurting my lower ankle and finding out I would miss out on all of my sports and outside activities, I felt super down and given up. Now I spend 1h every day doing these exercises instead of sitting around on my computer, eating, and feeling worse and worse. TYSM and keep making great content!❤
I just broke my toe this week and this is the first time I've sweated and moved, I was craving movement so much but was being so down on myself telling myself "I can't" stories! Thank you for the sweat and the positive talk. Stay blessed sis!
@@Itsjustkarissa yeah I’ve broken/sprained/got stitches 7 times in total and that’s not including me getting a black eye from slipping and falling on the street 👍👍👍👍👍
I thought my life was over with my foot injured. I always do a lot of cardio normally. I don’t want to rest. Then I found this video two days ago. The friendliest work out video ever. I thought: This could be good! I’m not strong yet, but this can be the start of a new chapter: Getting a lot stronger (not weaker). Thank you so much!🙏🏼
I just stumbled upon this work out today after after spraining my ankle 3 weeks ago and getting a bit down in the dumps that I felt like I couldn't exercise effectively. Like the comment below, I never leave You Tube comments but OMG this video and her energy just lifted my spirits and reinvigorated my motivation to exercise. Her positive words were so encouraging it was like having my own PT. Also practically cried tears to joy! Thank you thank you thank you.
Seriously. I was so down tonight after im on week 7 of my foot injury and feeling sorry for myself. I felt compelled to leave you a comment because I seriously cried from this workout. Thank you for creating this workout and for what you do! It is helping so much. Loved your encouraging words...its so real. Its so easy to cry and feel sorry for yourself and what you are missing out on, instead of making the best of what is happening. Again, thank you!
I hardly leave comments on videos, but when I say I am sooooooooooo happy I stumbled across your videos. I broke my ankle back in April and got my hard cast removed a couple weeks ago. I've been upset thinking all my hard work in staying active was going to waste and I'd be back at square one. While some of that may be true, finding your video today got me excited to get back on my fitness journey even while recovering from this broken ankle. It's lifted my spirits and given me that exercise itch I've been missing for weeks. Thank you so much!
Plantar fascitis has kept me from my usual jogging/cardio routines so this was such a breath of fresh air!! I do need more core strength LOL but I'm sure with time it will come.
Hi Caroline, THANK YOU so much. Your Hurt Foot videos have kept me sane during the pandemic. After a bone cancer diagnosis in my foot in 2019, chemotherapy, 3 foot surgeries & stuck indoors for most of that, I'm here, positive & "staying strong". So, so happy to have discovered your Hurt Foot videos last year. I'm back in plaster again, but that hasn't stopped me resuming your workouts. Lots of love from the UK xx
been going through a lot of sadness this yr with cartilage damage in my ankle pushing many of my lifelong hobbies (sports) out of my life. your voice and positivity from this video really helped me feel better again after being sedentary and sad for so long. thank you.
I love your positivity and find myself smiling along with your enthusiasm. I've been bummed for the last 5 weeks after a severe ankle sprain left me on the couch...eating chocolate chip cookies every night! I'm so glad to find your channel. I love the chair yoga video and even talked my coworker into doing it with me at lunch one day since we can't do our usual lunch walks.
Like many others here I am leaving a comment to say I am so happy to have found your channel. I injured my foot a couple of weeks ago and stopped my normal fitness routine completely while I am recovering because even low impact exercise was aggravating it. Decided that surely there was a routine I could do entirely on the floor and found this after a UA-cam search. Really like your positive outlook - thank you!
I broke my foot over a year and a half ago and was so happy to discover your workouts. Regular exercise is so good for me mentally so when I broke my foot I was really worried I would have to stop. It was wonderful to have workouts that actually helped me to feel strong and fit while still caring for my injury. Thank you so much for your support and encouragement during that time for me for all that you do for so many.
I never leave youtube comments, but I'm disabled with a chronic ankle issue I've had for over a decade. Long walks and standing yoga are my fav types of movement, and obviously I can't do either of those when I'm having a flare-up so I struggle to move during those times, especially finding something I actually enjoy. Loved this workout a lot, especially loved that the focus was on strength with no mention of weight (a lot of weight talk is def a dealbreaker for me). Not gonna lie, I cried a little bit when you said "if you haven't discovered all those things yet, I am here to help you baby!"
I have been feeling so depressed over my rolled my ankle, it’s limited my usual walks and outdoor activities. I reluctantly typed into UA-cam hurt foot exercises, not expecting much…and BAM! Your video was the exact thing I needed! Thank you so much for this workout ❤
Thank you Caroline! I broke my foot (John’s fracture) almost 6 weeks ago. I am an active 71 year old but I have gained weight, and have missed more than anything my nearly every day walk of several miles. Just had a visit with a new ortho who gives me 3 more weeks in the boot to try to heal, and if not, surgery. 😮 So glad I found this on UA-cam! I love your upbeat and encouraging words and it’s good to know I’m not alone in this. Hope you are all healed up by now!
Wow. I’ve been feeling horrible for a while and nothing anyone says makes me feel better but i really appreciate the your words of encouragement. “I’m strong enough to overcome any obstacle in my way” will be my mantra during recovery. Thank you kindly.
It both made me laugh and hit me deep when she said we have to practice endurance while we're recovering from an injury, because right before she said it I was thinking I couldn't hold that pose and had to have a 'dammit, you're right' moment as I went back into it lol
Oh dear, thinking I'll end up same way if i can't do something about it. Will try this & hope it helps. It's so hard not to eat too much when ya are unable to walk or drive away from the fridge, isn't it lol
As an anorexic that is in recovery, girl you’re strong just for getting through that broken foot . You shouldn’t worry about your weight . You should worry about your recovery! Be kind to yourself and realize that your worth is more than a number on the scale . Weight doesn’t dictate your worth and please for your own sake , exercise because of health , increased strength, and your enjoyment as well as happiness . Bodies aren’t meant to be controlled or manipulated. The minute you realize this , you will be free. Sending love , hugs , and prayers to you .
I just broke my left foot and this was so helpful! I was so worried about what exercises would be safe for me to do while I healed, thank you Caroline!
I am so glad I found this video. I was feeling so demoralized after injuring my ankle when I'd finally gotten back into a good fitness routine post childbirth. Thank you so much 🙏
I often sprain and fracture my ankles and im on a consistent weight loss journey. My aunt just died and I sprained my ankle the same day it was terrible. I worked around all the workout I did before and modified them but non of my full body workouts I could modify enough for them to be effective. Your workouts are a blessing and im a huge fan of how effective it feels. And your positive attitude and words really make me feel so much better because I am clinically depressed and have 0 confidence in my body so I'm trying to fix it. Thank you for making these videos and being such an amazing person. ♥️💘
I know this video is a bit old, but just wanted to say thank you for your kind words of encouragement throughout the video. I've torn my meniscus, ACL x2, and now I just tore my achilles. I was an athlete, so I was really in a dark place about it but I took the initiative to try exercising again and your words support my mental/emotional health too. Felt like my physical health was failing me and not even realizing what it was doing to my psyche. Thank you for reminding me to keep a positive mindset, and make happiness the goal!
Robbie I am HERE for you! Thank you for commenting and being a part of the community. Movement is indeed medicine for the body, spirit, and mind! hope to help you continue to heal and get back out there!
The boot came off today for good but I still want to workout with Caroline!! She makes me smile and laugh at the end of my day and for the first time ever, I countdown to my workout🎉🎉
So glad I found this 30min workout! After foot surgery, was in week 4 of recovery when I discovered Caroline's video..wow, what a boost. Been doing it every day since and feel so much better for it! Need surgery on the other foot soon so am so grateful I can exercise without damaging the healing process!! Thank You Caroline, so uplifting and inspirational!!👏👏💫👌
Your HIIT workout for people with injured foot is saving me. It's not just the exercise itself- but other things like all the hormones that is getting released in my brain, staying motivated, having to re-design my day productively because I do have options for workout that makes me appreciate your workout. Thank you, Caroline!
I am into my 3rd week post op from an ankle surgery. 10 weeks out from a knee surgery. This has left me damning my body. Since the onset of my injuries nearly 6 months ago.I am feeling so incredibly weak. Doctor is recommending 3 more weeks non weight bearing.. And I have been feeling like I need to change. I stumbled on your video looking for ways to get myself off the floor. (for lack of better words) And am going to try to do some of this to start as my pain level will allow. But thank you for showing me a way to start to make a positive change in my recovery. You inspired me, I am not going to just lay here and wallow in misery anymore! So again, Thank you
girl your positive attitude made my day!! i just had my third foot surgery and i’ve been looking for ways to maintain my fitness. you’re videos have helped me so much. thank you!
Like yourself I've had 3 foot surgeries. Good luck with your recovery. It takes as long as it takes with feet. Delighted you are also finding Caroline a positive inspiration.
i found out my need surgery since 5th metatarsal fracture is not healing....this is scary , good to know there are others dealing.I think it stems from early osteporosis and feet are weakest link
Thank you so much for your positive energy and healing workout!!🙏 this has been my second injury in a row on the same foot, while living in the backwoods. Your video was an absolute godsend to my mental and physical well-being. Much love❤️🔥
I broke my bitty toe a few days ago and have been distraught. I am an avid runner and walk absolutely everywhere…to work, walking my dogs etc. I was sure that the past 3+years of hard work to regain myself and my body after breast cancer was going down the drain. And then I remembered Caroline. The beautiful (inside and out) amazing wonderful Caroline Jordan ❤ I just finished this workout and literally cried. Not because it was too hard but because she reminded me that I have resources and mentors out there that are going to help me transmute my dark clouds of doom into a way to strengthen me in absolutely wonderful and exciting new ways! Caroline, I have relied on you so many times in the past ten? years in times like this. YOU are an inspiration and I am so grateful for you and to you ❤
Thank you for this workout. I had sclerotherapy yesterday and I wanted to be gentle on my legs today so in my search I found your video. It was a great workout! I think I use muscles that I don't usually use. So even when I heal I'll definitely be back!!!
Thank you so much Caroline for sharing your passion with us and helping to light so many of our lives with your flame!! Limitations from injuries can be really discouraging, and this channel has helped me grow stronger physically, mentally, and spiritually. You and these videos are a blessing to me 💛💛💛 Thank you girl 🤗
Hi Caroline, I broke my talus bone in my ankle at the end of April bouldering, and I'm usually a very active person with running, hiking and bouldering, I'm now beggining to get back into walking lots and can run at the end of September but I'm leaving it till the beggining of October just to be sure. This excercise video has been a major help in keeping my mind and body healthy throughout recovery whilst in a cast, smaller cast then orthopedic boot to having it of now since the end of July with doing this weekly (attempting to do twice a week but with a busy life I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself and be kind to my body). Thank you so much for making this and your supportive words are so uplifting whilst keeping up with the excercises. You're wonderful, keep on shining x
I'm so happy I found your videos! I've had bunyon surgery twice within a year, and the lack of exercise has had a major negative effect on my mood and fitness...and let's not even talk about my weight *sigh*... The first time I had the surgery, I felt too depressed to do anything, but this time around I've been able to incorporate a little bit of exercise. Your videos have been super helpful, as it was a little hard to figure out what I can and cannot do during this time. Turns out there's lots of things I can still do and I've felt a lot better after every workout. :)
Loved it! I have a broken ankle and still have 3 weeks to go in a cast. I started doing your workouts from day 1 on and have been loving all of them. Thanks for being so positive and lovely!!! Hugs from Holland
You are an amazing angel sent to all of us in need. I fractured my left talus and sprained my right all in one accident and I was truly needing this. Thank you for your energy, your power and your time. It definitely feeds through the screens. Keep doing you🤍 and again…. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you, Caroline! This, together with two of you other hurt foot videos, is now vital in my daily routine following a foot injury. Sweat on, muscles sore and I feel my body coming to life again with every exercise. Huge mental health boost as well as the physical exercise, can't thank you enough for helping me on my way to recovery!
"It's never six to eight weeks it's always a lot longer" Thanks for the reality check Caroline but it made me cry DX ...but really thank you for all these helpful videos though, I was afraid I was going to lose all the progress I have made on my body strength before my injury. Your videos definitely feel like they will help me maintain some of it :')
First workout two weeks post surgery on my ankle and I'm feeling refreshed, worked and so appreciative of your supportive comments! Looking forward to continuing your videos every day through my non-weight bearing time!
Hey! You should really check out my Hurt Foot Fitness program it has a TON of mental / emotional support resources AND a community www.hurtfootfitness.com/ . 100% worth investing in and we would love to have you! 💖
This is literally my first UA-cam comment ever. Recovering from ankle surgery and was feeling really down about it all. Just did it, and feel great! Thank you!

I'm recovering from ankle surgery, and I'm weight bearing as tolerated. I have been wanting work out, and already have my healed workout plan made, but I want to start sooner. I honestly can't wait to start doing this to begin my exercise/weight loss progress start sooner than I expected.
Thank you so much, Caroline. I normally go to the gym, but now that I got my toe nail removed recently which hurt so bad, I can't. Your video helps me stay active and happy!
I just did this workout after being down 3 weeks with leg injury (torn 40% calf). I still cannot walk, but this video re-energized my body and spirit. I loved all the positive messages in this video. Thank you so much!!
Thank you for this. I had been on a one month workout roll. I was noticing my clothes fit better and my attitude about myself more positive. Then it happened, I missed a step and sprained my ankle. I had been so upset with myself for the fall. I ate way too many cookies and chips, then I thought there has to be something in UA-cam. I’m so grateful I found your channel, your positivity is amazing. I did my first workout with you and I feel amazing. Thank you!!!
I have three broken bones in my foot. I’ve been on bed rest and elevation for a while now. Just the past 2 weeks walking without crutches and in boot. I’ve always been very active like hiking paddle boarding, yard work, garden,ext. I have gained three pants sizes 😱 I started doing a little floor exercise this week. I am so excited to start this! Thank you for posting!
Caroline, I am a fellow coach dealing with a 2nd foot injury in 2 1/2 years, and I don’t know what I would do without your videos. I also share them with my clients. What a wonderful resource and I love your attitude!
This is amazing! I just had an ankle surgery and thought I would have to lie on the bed or sit on my couch for the next 6 weeks. This got me moving and heart beating! I feel alive and great after this workout 😊
This workout was just what I needed. I've been dealing with a pesky ankle sprain for 11 months and just fractured my good foot. I was losing hope at getting better and staying fit through this, and then I found your videos. I love your enthusiasm and positivity. Thank you!
Your positive attitude is infectious. Thanks for this video. I’m so bummed to be back in a cast after another climbing accident. But hopefully I’ll be stronger once it’s off.
Truly one of the most affirming teachers on this platform. I have hypermobility and sprain my ankles...far too often and I come back to your workouts every time it happens. You make me feel good about my body and keep me energized when I'm dealing with difficult injuries. Thank you
Dealing w some foot pain. Super sad about pausing my runs/ bike/strair climber. Trying to be smart about resting. I was encouraged after doing this video. You are awesome!!!!
I am so happy I found this video and channel. I’m a triathlete but finally broke down and had bunion/neuroma surgery last week when the pain was no longer manageable. It’ll be three months until I can run again. I was going crazy after just a week. So happy to find this. Just like you said, come back stronger! Silver linings and all :-)
healing is a marathon but youll get there! you WILL come back stronger April! Join us at 👉 www.hurtfootfitness.com for so much more to help you make silver linings and a strong healing comeback!
I broke my ankle last week and have been discouraged by what i read about typical length of recovery. After doing a couple of your videos now i feel encouraged that i can recover quickly. Thanks Caroline!
I just rolled my ankle a couple days ago and am so grateful for this video!! I’ll definitely be checking out the hurt foot program, you have incredible energy
You have saved my days! injured my ankle playing rugby and will have a game coming up in a month. Since I can not run and was really bummed that I have to rest, comng across your videos was a god sent! Thank you!
I usually don't leave comments, but this workout is a gem! I love my HIIT workouts, running, & weightlifting, but recently fractured my toe. This workout is challenging, encouraging, and has diverse movements! Thank you!
Caroline your a life saver. I have been following you and doing your workouts for the past 3 years. Your workouts are amazing, your supporting, caring and encouraging words keep me smiling and postive. You definitely know your stuff and I pray God continues to shine over u xx
I am recovering from my FIFTH foot surgery. You have been my pal and coach since I found you 3 years ago. You have helped me stay positive.... Help me solve this program. Very time my calves have almost atrophied.; flat on the inside. Would you consider doing a video on how to build up your calves? I can't believe that almost everyone doesn't this problem.. Keep up the great work!
I keep coming back to this video because it's not only a great injury-friendly workout but also so incredibly uplifting. My ankle has been problematic for seven years, and this is the best workouts series I've found. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!
I've never left a UA-cam comment, but I absolutely loved this. I'm a fitness instructor myself and love everything active and mobile, but I have left ankle injury AND a right foot injury all of a sudden. Not only are these great strengthening moves, your affect, cueing, and encouragement made the time fly by and feel nourishing and positive. Thank you!
I have never left a UA-cam comment before but I broke my tibia/fibula playing soccer and have done your videos the last 2 days, I only wish I found you sooner! THANK YOU!
I’m amazed by what a great workout this is . Sweat is pouring off me during the video and I’m a good all over body sore the next day . Thanks for the hurt foot healing motivation !
The best part about my broken ankle is finding Caroline Jordan! I love your positive words, and the workouts are amazing! I’m not feeling sore for myself anymore!! I’m sharing your vids with my network!!
So happy I came across this video, a foot injury is so hard for active people and I have been going stir crazy. The positivity in this video is the best. And I love that you included inner thigh exercises! Thank you for making this video!
i am dealing with rare complications after bunion surgery 10 weeks ago. I developed a fracture blister, deep suture reaction, and numerous debridements and skin grafts. i have a long way to go and have been couch bound this whole time. I am soo glad I found you! I also cried after doing the first workout. Thank you so much!!
Oh my god it’s my first time on your channel and the support you give in your videos are absolutely life-changing while doing the workout. Thank you so much and I wish to all of you a great mental health!!!
I am so thankful I found you, Caroline. You are amazing. I have been struggling with a foot injury for almost 2 years now, and I didn't really know if I could do any exercise without straining my injured foot. I have been hurting the foot trying to do the wrong kind of exercises. Thank you! Every word you say is encouraging and so full of power & positivity. God bless you
I'm so darn happy that i found you and your no impact total body workouts. I am having ankle surgery tomorrow and am going to miss all the things I love to do: running, hiking with my dog, and skiing and just basically going places easily. Now I have a place to go to still feel active while I heal. Thank you. Thank you.
Just did this video & I loved it. I woke up in pain and not wanting to move. I forced myself to do it and feel better. Foot injuries can be very isolating because of limited mobility. But your videos help me see that I cam move & I won’t always be like this. You are a blessing 🙏
I have a ruptured Achilles Tendon, which means months of non-weight bearing, and this is the first exercise I managed to complete (almost) without worrying about my foot, or feeling uncomfortable in the cast. You are a godsend. Thank you, Caroline. ❤❤
This was such a wonderful workout! I workout almost every day so I've been feeling really bummed about having a foot injury. This was so great to get a good, challenging workout in, while not adding any stress to my foot. Thank you for sharing Caroline!
omg, I twisted my ankle so bad 3 weeks ago that it is still bruised. I am normally a lifter but I haven't been doing anything out of fear that I'd hurt my foot more. I've been eating a lot of junk food and been just depressed. Finally, I got my s*it together and decided to get back to working out. I didn't know what to do so I searched ankle injury workout. I didn't think there would be any results but there was your video! I just finished this video and I am SWEATING. It looked easy but man, this workout burns! Thank you so much for making videos like this for us. I feel so happy that I worked out today. I wouldn't have known what to do if it weren't for your video.
I thought searching youtube for "workouts you can do with an injured foot" would turn up nothing, but this is exactly what I was looking for! Not only is it a good workout, but I really appreciate the positivity, both in terms of meeting yourself where you're at and working to feel a good challenge, not punish yourself--and in terms of the encouragement to find the silver linings in a challenging situation. Thanks for this video, it made my night better!
This is a great workout! Thank you so much! Broke my fifth metatarsal 3 weeks ago - never have broken anything in my 67j years! I hope I do this every day!
Having bunion and hammertoe surgery Wed and was concerned about losing all my progress. I thank God for leading me to this video. Caroline you are very encouraging and positive. After watching this video, I see that it is possible to still workout with a hurt foot,and I am confident that I wont lose any momentum at all as well as workout other muscles groups.
I am SO happy I found this channel. I've been so down since hurting my ankle and this is giving me hope. Thank you Caroline - you're going to get me through this injury (:

I injured my foot 2 weeks ago and I have not moved at all. Prior to injury I worked out at least 5 days/wk. My body has been so achy. I feel so amazing after this workout! Thank you!
I just recently found you on Pinterest Caroline Jordan. I am starting to get depressed as was I thought wasn’t going to be a two to three week down time is going on eight weeks. I recently found running to be my passion and now I can’t use my right foot. Your videos are so uplifting and I thank you for sharing!
I have never left a UA-cam comment but this literally made me cry tears of joy. I have been so down over my foot injury and it felt great to get some full body exercise, but more than that-I loved every encouraging word that you said-thank you!!!💜💜💜

I just had to exact same feeling and I cried. I have been dealing with a complicated ankle injury for over a year now. I have nearly lost hope and this work out saved my day and makes me feel so much better. :)

broken toe here as well! had no idea such a little bone could disrupt my life!
Same I really badly sprained my ankle
@@i.love.sloths. Get ittt! Now I fractured my finger this year... Hahaha! Time to look for a "Hurt Hand" workout. Let's both go hard on the self care.
@@Itsjustkarissa yeah I’ve broken/sprained/got stitches 7 times in total and that’s not including me getting a black eye from slipping and falling on the street 👍👍👍👍👍
I thought my life was over with my foot injured. I always do a lot of cardio normally. I don’t want to rest.
Then I found this video two days ago. The friendliest work out video ever. I thought: This could be good! I’m not strong yet, but this can be the start of a new chapter: Getting a lot stronger (not weaker).

You got this!

After a bone cancer diagnosis in my foot in 2019, chemotherapy, 3 foot surgeries & stuck indoors for most of that, I'm here, positive & "staying strong". So, so happy to have discovered your Hurt Foot videos last year. I'm back in plaster again, but that hasn't stopped me resuming your workouts. Lots of love from the UK xx
been going through a lot of sadness this yr with cartilage damage in my ankle pushing many of my lifelong hobbies (sports) out of my life. your voice and positivity from this video really helped me feel better again after being sedentary and sad for so long. thank you.
I love your positivity and find myself smiling along with your enthusiasm. I've been bummed for the last 5 weeks after a severe ankle sprain left me on the couch...eating chocolate chip cookies every night! I'm so glad to find your channel. I love the chair yoga video and even talked my coworker into doing it with me at lunch one day since we can't do our usual lunch walks.
Like many others here I am leaving a comment to say I am so happy to have found your channel. I injured my foot a couple of weeks ago and stopped my normal fitness routine completely while I am recovering because even low impact exercise was aggravating it. Decided that surely there was a routine I could do entirely on the floor and found this after a UA-cam search. Really like your positive outlook - thank you!
I broke my foot over a year and a half ago and was so happy to discover your workouts. Regular exercise is so good for me mentally so when I broke my foot I was really worried I would have to stop. It was wonderful to have workouts that actually helped me to feel strong and fit while still caring for my injury. Thank you so much for your support and encouragement during that time for me for all that you do for so many.
Thank you Jamie!!
I never leave youtube comments, but I'm disabled with a chronic ankle issue I've had for over a decade. Long walks and standing yoga are my fav types of movement, and obviously I can't do either of those when I'm having a flare-up so I struggle to move during those times, especially finding something I actually enjoy. Loved this workout a lot, especially loved that the focus was on strength with no mention of weight (a lot of weight talk is def a dealbreaker for me). Not gonna lie, I cried a little bit when you said "if you haven't discovered all those things yet, I am here to help you baby!"
I’m so glad you are here on the channel Paulette!
I have been feeling so depressed over my rolled my ankle, it’s limited my usual walks and outdoor activities. I reluctantly typed into UA-cam hurt foot exercises, not expecting much…and BAM! Your video was the exact thing I needed! Thank you so much for this workout ❤
Thank you Caroline! I broke my foot (John’s fracture) almost 6 weeks ago. I am an active 71 year old but I have gained weight, and have missed more than anything my nearly every day walk of several miles. Just had a visit with a new ortho who gives me 3 more weeks in the boot to try to heal, and if not, surgery. 😮 So glad I found this on UA-cam! I love your upbeat and encouraging words and it’s good to know I’m not alone in this. Hope you are all healed up by now!
Wow. I’ve been feeling horrible for a while and nothing anyone says makes me feel better but i really appreciate the your words of encouragement. “I’m strong enough to overcome any obstacle in my way” will be my mantra during recovery. Thank you kindly.
It both made me laugh and hit me deep when she said we have to practice endurance while we're recovering from an injury, because right before she said it I was thinking I couldn't hold that pose and had to have a 'dammit, you're right' moment as I went back into it lol
I needed this workout! Already gained 5 pounds with a broken foot and need this to work it off!! Thank you!
Oh dear, thinking I'll end up same way if i can't do something about it. Will try this & hope it helps. It's so hard not to eat too much when ya are unable to walk or drive away from the fridge, isn't it lol
oh my God, your description are so related to whah just happened to me.
Me too gained 5 lbs in 2 days lol excited to try these !
As an anorexic that is in recovery, girl you’re strong just for getting through that broken foot . You shouldn’t worry about your weight . You should worry about your recovery! Be kind to yourself and realize that your worth is more than a number on the scale . Weight doesn’t dictate your worth and please for your own sake , exercise because of health , increased strength, and your enjoyment as well as happiness . Bodies aren’t meant to be controlled or manipulated. The minute you realize this , you will be free. Sending love , hugs , and prayers to you .
I just broke my left foot and this was so helpful! I was so worried about what exercises would be safe for me to do while I healed, thank you Caroline!
You're so welcome!
I am so glad I found this video. I was feeling so demoralized after injuring my ankle when I'd finally gotten back into a good fitness routine post childbirth. Thank you so much 🙏
I often sprain and fracture my ankles and im on a consistent weight loss journey. My aunt just died and I sprained my ankle the same day it was terrible. I worked around all the workout I did before and modified them but non of my full body workouts I could modify enough for them to be effective. Your workouts are a blessing and im a huge fan of how effective it feels. And your positive attitude and words really make me feel so much better because I am clinically depressed and have 0 confidence in my body so I'm trying to fix it. Thank you for making these videos and being such an amazing person. ♥️💘
I know this video is a bit old, but just wanted to say thank you for your kind words of encouragement throughout the video. I've torn my meniscus, ACL x2, and now I just tore my achilles. I was an athlete, so I was really in a dark place about it but I took the initiative to try exercising again and your words support my mental/emotional health too. Felt like my physical health was failing me and not even realizing what it was doing to my psyche. Thank you for reminding me to keep a positive mindset, and make happiness the goal!
Robbie I am HERE for you! Thank you for commenting and being a part of the community. Movement is indeed medicine for the body, spirit, and mind! hope to help you continue to heal and get back out there!
Perhaps the most heart warming commentaries in a workout video ❤ It’s so obvious how passionate you are, Caroline!
Wow, thank you!
The boot came off today for good but I still want to workout with Caroline!! She makes me smile and laugh at the end of my day and for the first time ever, I countdown to my workout🎉🎉
So glad I found this 30min workout! After foot surgery, was in week 4 of recovery when I discovered Caroline's video..wow, what a boost. Been doing it every day since and feel so much better for it! Need surgery on the other foot soon so am so grateful I can exercise without damaging the healing process!! Thank You Caroline, so uplifting and inspirational!!👏👏💫👌
Your HIIT workout for people with injured foot is saving me. It's not just the exercise itself- but other things like all the hormones that is getting released in my brain, staying motivated, having to re-design my day productively because I do have options for workout that makes me appreciate your workout. Thank you, Caroline!
I am into my 3rd week post op from an ankle surgery. 10 weeks out from a knee surgery. This has left me damning my body. Since the onset of my injuries nearly 6 months ago.I am feeling so incredibly weak. Doctor is recommending 3 more weeks non weight bearing.. And I have been feeling like I need to change. I stumbled on your video looking for ways to get myself off the floor. (for lack of better words) And am going to try to do some of this to start as my pain level will allow. But thank you for showing me a way to start to make a positive change in my recovery. You inspired me, I am not going to just lay here and wallow in misery anymore! So again, Thank you
girl your positive attitude made my day!! i just had my third foot surgery and i’ve been looking for ways to maintain my fitness. you’re videos have helped me so much. thank you!
Like yourself I've had 3 foot surgeries. Good luck with your recovery. It takes as long as it takes with feet. Delighted you are also finding Caroline a positive inspiration.
i found out my need surgery since 5th metatarsal fracture is not healing....this is scary , good to know there are others dealing.I think it stems from early osteporosis and feet are weakest link
Thank you so much for your positive energy and healing workout!!🙏 this has been my second injury in a row on the same foot, while living in the backwoods. Your video was an absolute godsend to my mental and physical well-being. Much love❤️🔥
I broke my bitty toe a few days ago and have been distraught. I am an avid runner and walk absolutely everywhere…to work, walking my dogs etc.
I was sure that the past 3+years of hard work to regain myself and my body after breast cancer was going down the drain.
And then I remembered Caroline. The beautiful (inside and out) amazing wonderful Caroline Jordan ❤
I just finished this workout and literally cried. Not because it was too hard but because she reminded me that I have resources and mentors out there that are going to help me transmute my dark clouds of doom into a way to strengthen me in absolutely wonderful and exciting new ways! Caroline, I have relied on you so many times in the past ten? years in times like this. YOU are an inspiration and I am so grateful for you and to you ❤
Holy cow this had me shaking in less time than some workouts I've done b4 a sprained ankle!
Thank you for this workout. I had sclerotherapy yesterday and I wanted to be gentle on my legs today so in my search I found your video. It was a great workout! I think I use muscles that I don't usually use. So even when I heal I'll definitely be back!!!
Thank you so much Caroline for sharing your passion with us and helping to light so many of our lives with your flame!! Limitations from injuries can be really discouraging, and this channel has helped me grow stronger physically, mentally, and spiritually. You and these videos are a blessing to me 💛💛💛 Thank you girl 🤗
Hi Caroline, I broke my talus bone in my ankle at the end of April bouldering, and I'm usually a very active person with running, hiking and bouldering, I'm now beggining to get back into walking lots and can run at the end of September but I'm leaving it till the beggining of October just to be sure. This excercise video has been a major help in keeping my mind and body healthy throughout recovery whilst in a cast, smaller cast then orthopedic boot to having it of now since the end of July with doing this weekly (attempting to do twice a week but with a busy life I'm trying not to put too much pressure on myself and be kind to my body). Thank you so much for making this and your supportive words are so uplifting whilst keeping up with the excercises. You're wonderful, keep on shining x
Just did this with a calf tear… had to make some modifications with the knee-high boot to stay safe, but LOVED it! 💫 Thanks 🙏🏼
Same! I had a walking boot on one leg (and a heavy hiking boot on the other), so the hip exercises were extra tough! 😁
I'm so happy I found your videos! I've had bunyon surgery twice within a year, and the lack of exercise has had a major negative effect on my mood and fitness...and let's not even talk about my weight *sigh*... The first time I had the surgery, I felt too depressed to do anything, but this time around I've been able to incorporate a little bit of exercise. Your videos have been super helpful, as it was a little hard to figure out what I can and cannot do during this time. Turns out there's lots of things I can still do and I've felt a lot better after every workout. :)
Thank you for your videos, Caroline! They're the only ones I can do with my foot injuries. And your positivity is infectious!
thank you!
Loved it! I have a broken ankle and still have 3 weeks to go in a cast. I started doing your workouts from day 1 on and have been loving all of them. Thanks for being so positive and lovely!!! Hugs from Holland
so happy to know it helped you!
You are an amazing angel sent to all of us in need. I fractured my left talus and sprained my right all in one accident and I was truly needing this. Thank you for your energy, your power and your time. It definitely feeds through the screens. Keep doing you🤍 and again…. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I sprained my foot and this is exactly what I needed! Thank you soooo much. :)
I just sprained my ankle
Thank you, Caroline! This, together with two of you other hurt foot videos, is now vital in my daily routine following a foot injury. Sweat on, muscles sore and I feel my body coming to life again with every exercise. Huge mental health boost as well as the physical exercise, can't thank you enough for helping me on my way to recovery!
Recovering from turf toe and glad I found this video. You are obnoxiously positive and this is a great workout!
Awesome! Thank you!
"It's never six to eight weeks it's always a lot longer" Thanks for the reality check Caroline but it made me cry DX ...but really thank you for all these helpful videos though, I was afraid I was going to lose all the progress I have made on my body strength before my injury. Your videos definitely feel like they will help me maintain some of it :')
Seriously. TRUTH! Its never 6-8 weeks, especially with an ankle or foot!
First workout two weeks post surgery on my ankle and I'm feeling refreshed, worked and so appreciative of your supportive comments! Looking forward to continuing your videos every day through my non-weight bearing time!

This is literally my first UA-cam comment ever. Recovering from ankle surgery and was feeling really down about it all. Just did it, and feel great! Thank you!
I just had foot surgery a month ago, and I’m glad I found your video! ❤️

I'm recovering from ankle surgery, and I'm weight bearing as tolerated. I have been wanting work out, and already have my healed workout plan made, but I want to start sooner. I honestly can't wait to start doing this to begin my exercise/weight loss progress start sooner than I expected.
Thank you so much, Caroline. I normally go to the gym, but now that I got my toe nail removed recently which hurt so bad, I can't. Your video helps me stay active and happy!
Thank u so much as a personal trainer with foot injury i loved this routine it keeps me moving without hurting myself
I just did this workout after being down 3 weeks with leg injury (torn 40% calf). I still cannot walk, but this video re-energized my body and spirit. I loved all the positive messages in this video. Thank you so much!!
Thank you for this. I had been on a one month workout roll. I was noticing my clothes fit better and my attitude about myself more positive. Then it happened, I missed a step and sprained my ankle. I had been so upset with myself for the fall. I ate way too many cookies and chips, then I thought there has to be something in UA-cam. I’m so grateful I found your channel, your positivity is amazing. I did my first workout with you and I feel amazing. Thank you!!!

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! Hope you can join us here: www.hurtfootfitness.com
This is amazing! I just had an ankle surgery and thought I would have to lie on the bed or sit on my couch for the next 6 weeks. This got me moving and heart beating! I feel alive and great after this workout 😊
This workout was just what I needed. I've been dealing with a pesky ankle sprain for 11 months and just fractured my good foot. I was losing hope at getting better and staying fit through this, and then I found your videos. I love your enthusiasm and positivity. Thank you!
I keep coming back to this one. Feels great after 8 weeks of Achilles survey. Thank you so much❤
Wonderful!
Your positive attitude is infectious. Thanks for this video. I’m so bummed to be back in a cast after another climbing accident. But hopefully I’ll be stronger once it’s off.
Truly one of the most affirming teachers on this platform. I have hypermobility and sprain my ankles...far too often and I come back to your workouts every time it happens. You make me feel good about my body and keep me energized when I'm dealing with difficult injuries. Thank you
You are so welcome and Im happy i could help you! Have you considered giving yourself even more support with us at www.hurtfootfitness.com/ ?
Dealing w some foot pain. Super sad about pausing my runs/ bike/strair climber. Trying to be smart about resting. I was encouraged after doing this video. You are awesome!!!!
You got this!
I am so happy I found this video and channel. I’m a triathlete but finally broke down and had bunion/neuroma surgery last week when the pain was no longer manageable. It’ll be three months until I can run again. I was going crazy after just a week. So happy to find this. Just like you said, come back stronger! Silver linings and all :-)
healing is a marathon but youll get there! you WILL come back stronger April! Join us at 👉 www.hurtfootfitness.com for so much more to help you make silver linings and a strong healing comeback!
I broke my ankle last week and have been discouraged by what i read about typical length of recovery. After doing a couple of your videos now i feel encouraged that i can recover quickly. Thanks Caroline!
I just rolled my ankle a couple days ago and am so grateful for this video!! I’ll definitely be checking out the hurt foot program, you have incredible energy
You have saved my days! injured my ankle playing rugby and will have a game coming up in a month. Since I can not run and was really bummed that I have to rest, comng across your videos was a god sent! Thank you!
I usually don't leave comments, but this workout is a gem! I love my HIIT workouts, running, & weightlifting, but recently fractured my toe. This workout is challenging, encouraging, and has diverse movements! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
Caroline your a life saver. I have been following you and doing your workouts for the past 3 years. Your workouts are amazing, your supporting, caring and encouraging words keep me smiling and postive.
You definitely know your stuff and I pray God continues to shine over u xx
I am recovering from my FIFTH foot surgery. You have been my pal and coach since I found you 3 years ago. You have helped me stay positive.... Help me solve this program. Very time my calves have almost atrophied.; flat on the inside. Would you consider doing a video on how to build up your calves? I can't believe that almost everyone doesn't this problem.. Keep up the great work!
I keep coming back to this video because it's not only a great injury-friendly workout but also so incredibly uplifting. My ankle has been problematic for seven years, and this is the best workouts series I've found. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!
im so happy you like it Kate! Have you considered joining us at www.hurtfootfitness.com/ ?! I have so much more to offer you there!
I've never left a UA-cam comment, but I absolutely loved this. I'm a fitness instructor myself and love everything active and mobile, but I have left ankle injury AND a right foot injury all of a sudden. Not only are these great strengthening moves, your affect, cueing, and encouragement made the time fly by and feel nourishing and positive. Thank you!
I have never left a UA-cam comment before but I broke my tibia/fibula playing soccer and have done your videos the last 2 days, I only wish I found you sooner! THANK YOU!
Join us at www.hurtfootfitness.com Nikki! I have SO much more to offer you! xo
I’m amazed by what a great workout this is . Sweat is pouring off me during the video and I’m a good all over body sore the next day . Thanks for the hurt foot healing motivation !
The best part about my broken ankle is finding Caroline Jordan! I love your positive words, and the workouts are amazing! I’m not feeling sore for myself anymore!! I’m sharing your vids with my network!!
So glad!
So happy I came across this video, a foot injury is so hard for active people and I have been going stir crazy. The positivity in this video is the best. And I love that you included inner thigh exercises! Thank you for making this video!
i am dealing with rare complications after bunion surgery 10 weeks ago. I developed a fracture blister, deep suture reaction, and numerous debridements and skin grafts. i have a long way to go and have been couch bound this whole time. I am soo glad I found you! I also cried after doing the first workout. Thank you so much!!
i am 6 weeks into my foot injury! ive been doing your videos and ive gotten sooo strong!!! i cant give up !! THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP
Oh my god it’s my first time on your channel and the support you give in your videos are absolutely life-changing while doing the workout. Thank you so much and I wish to all of you a great mental health!!!
I am so happy that I have found your channel! I am recovering from bone fusion surgery and these videos make me HAPPY in so many ways! Thank You
i hated and loved each second of this video. Great workout sesh for a foot injury. Glad that I was push thru it, I am feeling awesome!!
Thanks for breaking everything down so clearly. I've improved so much!
Great job!
So happy I have found a friend during my foot injury. Thanks for inspiring and encouraging with such a radiant smile.
Thank you! Hope you can join us here: www.hurtfootfitness.com
I am so thankful I found you, Caroline. You are amazing. I have been struggling with a foot injury for almost 2 years now, and I didn't really know if I could do any exercise without straining my injured foot. I have been hurting the foot trying to do the wrong kind of exercises. Thank you! Every word you say is encouraging and so full of power & positivity. God bless you
Please join us at www.hurtfootfitness.com/ I have so much more to offer you there!
I'm so darn happy that i found you and your no impact total body workouts. I am having ankle surgery tomorrow and am going to miss all the things I love to do: running, hiking with my dog, and skiing and just basically going places easily. Now I have a place to go to still feel active while I heal. Thank you. Thank you.
JOIN Us at www.hurtfootfitness.com/ Margaret! I have SO much more to offer you as you get back on your feet! We'd love to have you!
This is perfect! So challenging but in a safe way where I didn’t feel discomfort at all!
Just did this video & I loved it. I woke up in pain and not wanting to move. I forced myself to do it and feel better. Foot injuries can be very isolating because of limited mobility. But your videos help me see that I cam move & I won’t always be like this. You are a blessing 🙏
I have a ruptured Achilles Tendon, which means months of non-weight bearing, and this is the first exercise I managed to complete (almost) without worrying about my foot, or feeling uncomfortable in the cast. You are a godsend. Thank you, Caroline. ❤❤
You being so kind reminded me I needed to be way more kind to myself! Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
This was such a wonderful workout! I workout almost every day so I've been feeling really bummed about having a foot injury. This was so great to get a good, challenging workout in, while not adding any stress to my foot. Thank you for sharing Caroline!
omg, I twisted my ankle so bad 3 weeks ago that it is still bruised. I am normally a lifter but I haven't been doing anything out of fear that I'd hurt my foot more. I've been eating a lot of junk food and been just depressed. Finally, I got my s*it together and decided to get back to working out. I didn't know what to do so I searched ankle injury workout. I didn't think there would be any results but there was your video! I just finished this video and I am SWEATING. It looked easy but man, this workout burns! Thank you so much for making videos like this for us. I feel so happy that I worked out today. I wouldn't have known what to do if it weren't for your video.
I thought searching youtube for "workouts you can do with an injured foot" would turn up nothing, but this is exactly what I was looking for! Not only is it a good workout, but I really appreciate the positivity, both in terms of meeting yourself where you're at and working to feel a good challenge, not punish yourself--and in terms of the encouragement to find the silver linings in a challenging situation. Thanks for this video, it made my night better!
Thank you for all the positivity! Didn’t hurt my foot at all. :) kicked butt
This was so wonderful! I am healing from a sprained foot and worried I would lose all my fitness. Thank you!!!
So glad I found this workout. I felt parts of my abs I never have before.
Great job!
Thank you so much for great exercises and mental pep talk! Helps a lot after my Lisfranc foot surgery
This is a great workout! Thank you so much! Broke my fifth metatarsal 3 weeks ago - never have broken anything in my 67j years! I hope I do this every day!
I was worried about losing all the progress I made when I hurt my foot. It was a relief finding your video. Thank you
Glad it helped!
Wow wow wow! Your words of compassion went a long way and this was a great work out! Thank you for being you
Having bunion and hammertoe surgery Wed and was concerned about losing all my progress. I thank God for leading me to this video. Caroline you are very encouraging and positive. After watching this video, I see that it is possible to still workout with a hurt foot,and I am confident that I wont lose any momentum at all as well as workout other muscles groups.
I am SO happy I found this channel. I've been so down since hurting my ankle and this is giving me hope. Thank you Caroline - you're going to get me through this injury (:
