Excellent video! I very much appreciate your videos Will. You are clear, concise, well spoken, you present yourself professionally, and you explain the “why” behind everything. Thank you!🙌❤👍
Very thankful for this young man… very knowledgeable and easy to understand! I tried the boron( one supplement he suggested for painful knees); THANK YOU!
it has helped so much, even after only a few doses. May God bless you as you are blessing many with your care and recommendations!
I agree
Thank you so much! It's great to receive such positive feedback and I really appreciate it!
@@lisanash6633 that's great to hear! Thank you so much for letting me know I always appreciate the feedback!
Well said, these videos are excellent, outstanding work.
I’m in Canada and just found your site. I’m turning 80 this summer and I had a stroke seven years ago. I’ve made a remarkable recovery thank goodness, but I’m always looking for tips for keeping myself safe and healthy. Thanks for an amazing site that is geared to the over seventies.🇨🇦
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear about your stroke but I'm so pleased you've had a great recovery - it's always important to protect our health and safety and I hope my work can be of use!
Have a long life
Hi I had a TIA 5 yrs ago ,exercise helps a lot doesn’t it, and diet. So what kind of stroke did you have? Just curious, I’m in my 70. Thanks
I have a classmate that had a stroke but she doesn’t seemed to want to talk about it. Sometimes I feel that we can learn from each other.
I'm 70 now and quite active and I really appreciate your advice. Thanks .
Keep up the great work!
Brilliant video! You hit my three trouble areas: shoulders, ankles, glute/hips. I turned 70 this year, and although I have lived a very active life (judo, running, biking, weight training) these areas seem to have gone out of warranty. I will continue to use these three exercises to prevent further injury. Thanks so much!
I hope the exercises prove beneficial for you - wishing you all the very best :)
67, been consistently working out since 1972.
Keep up the great work!
Excellent lesson in doing a warmup.
Love your videos. Not complicated exercises at all. Thanks so much.
Thanks Will. I’m 70 and a long term weight trainer. I have had problems in the past with rotator cuff but wasn’t sure how to warm up this area before workout. This video was great and I shall now do this exercise before chest and shoulder training. 👍
Thanks Will! I truly appreciate the attention to the finer points of how to safely executing these exercises.
Absolutely - safety is key!
Dear Will
Recently came across your site. I am 79 , get inspired by your simple,safe and effective exercises routines you are demonstrating. I find these are priceless and i follow them regularly.
Have subscribed to your channel.
Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
Great . Very professional. Very precise. Thank u Will.
2:40 exercise shoulder and wrist
5:33 ankles [question- would it hurt the knee joints?]
8:35 Hip abduction (for back pain), (NB: pull tummy in, squeeze glutes)
Very helpful - once again!
Thank you
Just ordered you book from Amazon. I believe you cover everything I'm interested in quite well on You Tube but I'm looking forward to receiving my copy because I believe the content will be even more amazing. Thank you for taking the time to put out great videos!
I'm 58 and have started going to the gym again after an almost 5yr hiatus. Stopped for a while when I tore my rotator cuff tendon. I was running regularly up to last July when I fell down the stairs in work and sprained both ankles. I'm fully recovered now (have been for a while tbh but got lazy) . After various injuries & some back issues I really want to pay attention to injury prevention. These videos are so great. It's like having a physio therapist in my pocket without having to pay €100 an hour! Absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much young man 😊
I'm so sorry to hear about your injury that sounds really nasty but I'm glad to hear you have recovered well - but I absolutely agree, it's important to lay as many foundations as possible to support prevention and to help with recovery in case we do get hurt!
Thank you Will exactly what I was looking for! Appreciate your clear instructions.
Excellent and much needed videos. Thank you Will for caring about the 50+
Very happy to be of help!
Thank you for the glute activator, back protector!
One more great video
Many thanks from Canada,
Am enjoying your book
Great info thank you... Just turned 50 and have not paid enough attention to warming up proper. Let's get after it fellas.
Brilliantly done. Very informative. Buying your book now!

Happy to help!
Fabulous video! I really needed to see this right now. Extremely well presented and informative. You have a lovely manner and way of speaking to people, as well as being highly professional and exceptional at your profession. Thank you so much. Keep going, you are the best.
So pleased my video came at the right time - thank you for your kind words, I'm so pleased the video was helpful :)
Thank you for these tips. I am 76 and use the rowing machine for about 10 minutes as my warm up. After watching this I will pay a little more attention to the rotator cuff as well.
I JUST PASSED 50 BUT HERE IS WHAT I DO -- AT LEAST 8 MINUTES ON THE TREADMILL SWINGING MY ARMS A BIT & STRETCHING -- ABOUT 15-20 PUSHUPS ON THE KITCHEN SINK -- SO NOT REAL STRENUOUS -- APPROX 15 SQUAT AT THE SAME KITCHEN SINK -- THEN GET BACK ON THE TREADMILL FOR ANOTHER 3 MINUTES AT A ONE CLICK HIGHER SPEED -- AND DUMPED ALL THE WEIGHTS EXCEPT FOR SEVERAL SETS OF DUMBELLS -- 3LB 5LB 10 LB 15 LB 20 LB -- ALL COLLECTED OVER THE YEARS -- THEN GET ON THE TOTAL GYM -- STAMINA & ENDURANCE ARE JUST FINE -- PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE LEVEL OF STRENGTH -- GAVE UP THE HEAVY WEIGHTS COMPLETELY -- NO NAGGING INJURIES AT ALL
I’m glad I found your site. Exactly what I need. Thank you.
That's great to hear - I'm pleased you came across my channel!
Awesome. I will be doing this tomorrow morning and from now on. I am in my early 60's so I have to be careful not to get injured. I will take a look at your book.
Hi Will. I’m 63 and reasonably fit, but I have found your videos really helpful. The exercises are easy to follow and to do. Thank you, and I have subscribed.
Great recommendations Will!!
I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet and these are safe and easy to do. Thanks again 👍

Thank you for your support - I hope my content has been helpful!
Thank you for sharing!

Great video as always! A couple questions - is that last movement safe for someone with hip bursitis? And next…. Do you have any videos focusing on warmups and stretches and cool-downs for pickleball players? TIA😊
great videos Will, thanks!
Happy to help!
excellent and on point-I'm in my 60's and a lifelong sports participant. Had lower back surgery in my late 40's,currently have a tear in my rotator cuff so great advice.the other killer is knees-cartilage/meniscus....the joys of getting old!!!

What a terrific vid! Incredibly helpful; thank you so much. I'm a 79 year-old guy with an old rotator cuff injury that has nevet quite healed; ditto pes anserine in my left knee. I'm going to start following your recommendations here; wish I'd know about them years ago.
By the way, I'm reading your book now; it's chock full of great advice for oldsters like myself.
Thanks for all your hard work in making these vids; they're all incredibly helpful. Best of luck to you.

Hi! thank you for the video.!👍
You're very welcome!
I just found your u tube channel I'm 73 and just got bands looking for the right instructions I find you very helpful. Thank you and God bless you 🙏🏾 nosale
I'm pleased my videos came at the right time - wishing you all the best with your new bands :)
Thank you so much 😊
You're very welcome!
Thank you Sir!👍💪
You're welcome!
Excellent thanks
You're welcome!
your videos are very good.. thanks👍
Very happy to help!
FANTASTIC VIDEO ❤ I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR PURE CARE AND KNOWLEDGE ❤ I DIDN'T KNOW THAT ABOUT SHOULDER MUSCLES ❤ THANKS A WORLD WILL ❤
So happy to be of help! Wishing you all the best :)
Your video is body saving.❤
This will be my new pregym workout. Is this the same for a pre lap swim workout?
Thanks I REALLY APPRECIATE your program.
Helpful. Thank you. One question: in the ankle exercise, is it okay if the knee goes forward beyond the toes?
At my age, young man, I always warm up by having a little nap.
Once I rise from my slumber, I need a nice cup of Yorkshire tea so I can try and remember where the hell I am !
If I manage to ascertain this, which is NOT always a given, I think to myself: "I must do some some exercise -- I'll start tomorrow... "
And then... it all starts again -- until it doesn't 😮
😊
Anyhow, thanks for your advice -- I'm going back to looking at young ladies, in various states of undress, exercising ... 🎉
TYVM 👏👏
These seem like perfect warm up exercises for all ages. Thank you!
Absolutely!
Excellent advice, Will, thank you. I do heel drops on the edge of a stair to stretch out my achiles, is this something you would recommend?
Good to know , how about the Pilate is this applicable ? Thanks Mr. Will
Hello, thank you for your great video! I would like to ask about the 3rd excercise, isn't it similar to the standing one, "back leg raises"?
Thanks
You're welcome
Hi Will, can you tell me what length of resistance band you are using for the cuff rotator exercise? Great videos by the way!
I tried to do the ankle mobility stretch with the chair, but it put pressure on the side of my knees. Is that normal ? Thank you for your amazing videos! 😊
Thanks very much for these excellent videos. Is there any reason why I can't do the rotator cuff warm up against an open door frame doing the same movement with a light weight? I find bands difficult to control.
Likelihood,risks, mobile, glutes; your vocabulary enhances my English besides motivating us to take care of ourselves at this stage of our lives.❤😊😊😊😊😊
That's great to hear!
Good advice man
Thank you!
could you recommend some exercises for hip flexor pain , please . I like your style
Great advice, as usual ! Thank you 🙂
You're very welcome!
Excellent video! I have a question regarding the second warm up. I am not tall and so when I place my feet on the chair I don’t get a 90 deg. My knees point up and I get low grade pain when I do the warm up. Any advice?
I have a huge problem separating my legs. That hard ligament (or whatever it is) that goes from crotch to leg is a hard stop at about a 40° angle. Forward and back, no problem or limits. But apart sideways, no range. Please address this someday.
I'm 60.
Thanks for this channel!
Absent a resistance band, it seems like you could do an isometric version of the rotator cuff warmup, using the other hand/arm for resistance.
It's not quite the same, but you can just hold a full water bottle. Then you won't risk affecting your shoulder alignment.
Thank you. I don't understand bracing your core. I thought you were supposed to brace your stomach as though somebody was going to hit you in the gut. So the last thing you would do is suck in your gut, if anything you would stick out your gut.
You are awsome..
Great video. Question though, why not banded clams for glute activation? Is the abductor activation superior?.
I immediately got my resistance band and tried the rotator cuff warm up and it was great, adding to my daily routine!
wish I had known before as I have very stiff and painful shoulders but that exercise was pretty solid and gentle for them so this will be great.
Thanks Will
That's great to hear - I'm happy I could help!
64 and still playing touch rugby. What’s a good warmup to protect the hammies while sprinting ?
Dear Sir, can the first exercise be done with the cable pulley weights. If yes, could you please show it to us
I don't do much of a workout (too risky- recovering from injuries), it's at home, don't have a doctor & I don't have that strap thing in the first one.
But I can try 10 of the ankle flex thing. I've had increased numbness in the feet for weeks.
Maybe I can get the 3rd thanks to a closet mirror I can look at to see if I'm doing it right.
Popular vid. Congrats.
Wow. This video was for me. messed up my shoulder doing pullups without warming up. Now according to MRI, small muscle is torn in my shoulder. Scheduled to see a orthopedic doctor but any advice mean while?
Hi - thank u for this video. Can I ask a question?
My workouts are split into legs and arms exercises. I always start with arms n finish with legs
Hopefully this doesn’t sound like a stupid question, I assume I would do the arm warm up, perform the arm exercises, then do the leg and glute warm up then perform the leg exercises?
Or would u recommend doing all 3 warm up exercises and then perform my routine?
