@@donnacraig5225 yes, I believe my balance is better. I could probably use more work on it though to improve my confidence. I think I'll start seeking out the yes2next balance oriented videos and do them more frequently. See you there☺️

I finished up the *1 Week Strength Training Plan - Intermediate* with this gentle stretch and balance routine last night. I found some of the balancing a bit challenging and even lost my balance a bit once or twice -- maybe because I was doing it late at night before bed, but overall I found it relaxing. I'll try to do it earlier in the day next time. (written on Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2024)
Thank you! YAY! You did it! 👏 Congratulations! Excellent work on finishing the 1 Week Strength Training Plan! You did your heart and muscles good! 💪 Strong muscles build more muscle and that's important too! Your balance was probably due to the late hour and if you try the moves again your balance will be just fine!👏 Keep challenging yourself! Know this is what your mind and body need to do! Hope we can keep you challenged to keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

I was looking for a short workout to finish out my daily workout goal. I had already did some rebounding and short walks to and from church. I found this one. I have never done any type of Tai Chi before. It was perfect to do just before bed and will do more that are similar. I love your cat and your mom (and you too, of course). I probably shouldn’t have put your cat first in the list 😂
