Hi! My name is Eric Daw! I am an Older Adult Specialist and Bone Fit Trained Specialist. And if you are a senior who is trying to improve their health and fitness or have loved who fall into this category, then this is DEFINITELY the place for YOU! On this channel, I upload videos weekly on topics such as ways to live longer, building strength, healthy aging etc...
Nearly 81 years old. Been using Eric's exercises for the past month and already noticing results. Truly enjoy his focus on seniors' fitness issues.
Thank you
I always say, your muscles have to act together as a team to keep you in balanced. Strength is so critical for this team to work together. Great exercises!
Great exercises for balance. One thing I did with my patients be they stroke patients, amputees, MS, Parkinsons, seniors, ...when standing or walking exercises, I put sandbag weights on their shoulders. This raised the center of gravity. This caused the brain to recuit more motor units to maintain balance and good posture. We started out with 1 or 2 pounds and added more weights as the skill level improved. Saw a lot of improvement in balance, posture, and gait cycle using this technique.
Great tips Brad
So grateful that we found you!! Looking forward to finding balance and health for our future! Thank you for what your doing. ❤
I love the info. I use it for my elderly parents that benefit from the info. Someday I may need to use this knowledge. Thank you Eric!!!! Keep up the awesome job
You are so welcome!
I'm 73 and I have Meniere's disease, so I have a real problem with balance at times. I'm sure people think I've been drinking too much alcohol at times. It's 2:10am here in down under Australia, so I will start these exercises tomorrow. Thank you for these tips. 😊🇦🇺
You're welcome. Thanks for watching Maureen
I like learning stuff like this to help prevent falls, as I have occasional vertigo (that luckily responds to the half somersault maneuver), and 1 weak knee. Hoping to learn stretches to be able to continue cutting/filing toenails 🦶 thanks if you can help.
So good! This is a yoga pose. You are so smart, Eric!
Thank you so much!
Great as usual. Eric and good precise delivery
Much appreciated!
Thank you so much for your lovely clear instructions with the perfect explanation to do the exercises which will be so beneficial for me because that’s the exact problem I am going through.
Glad it was helpful!
I feel a bit silly asking for this when I saw your video on compound workouts! I am even more impressed. Thanks - BTW I joined the facebook group.
Awesome! Thank you Dave
I like doing wall seating
Hoy Eric, as always a great video! My balance has always been a point of concern, because my toes are a bit higher than normal on my feet. With your recommendation I'm finally taking this serious and I'm working on my balance. In this regard I notice that it is of utmost importance to keep my back as straight as possible. Another thing. I've amused myself for several years with ninjutsu. In this art there is a lot of attention to falling - forward, backward and sideward. This saved my teeth and other parts of my body more than ones ;-)
Hello Eric, I'm french, my english is not very good. I'm 63 years old. I love all your exercices. I'm lost. I would like to know for each exercise how many times to do it and the number of repetitions to perform. Thanks Eric
Hi Eric, just found your channel today and I am 73 years old. I had my 1st hip replacement 08/2000 and the 2nd 08/2001. I have not had any problems but I do have arthritis on joints in this body. I am counting steps as my exercise routine and have reached over 7 to 8 thousand a day. This has helped me control my A1C, weight maintenance and other health issues for a senior citizen. I have watched several of your videos and the core training is what I need. I am hesitant in trying them alone because no one is home during the daytime with me. With COVID, I have to be cautious about visiting gyms and I want to stay safe. Can you direct me core exercises I can do sitting in a dining room chair? Any suggestions will be deeply appreciated. Take care and stay safe. Blessings Always Ms. P.
Wow I’m pretty shaky doing the bird dog oh oh hope it gets more stable the more I do it lol
Thank you Eric, very helpful. God bless
God bless to you too
You know how older people seem to have many falls - is it sometimes because of poor balance ? Great video - thanks Eric!
They say old people fall and break a hip, but more often it’s that they break a hip then fall!
Yup
Mr. Daw, what age do you consider Senior Citizen? My balance and strength is better at age 60 than it was at age 25 so I assume raising two boys to adults has helped with that. I will be 61 soon and do not want to lose the strength that I have. Also, I have followed your advice on improving grip strength using grip exercises and it is working well! Thank you Mr. Daw for your videos and advice!

What about cross crawl exercises Eric?
Please subtitles in english or spanish! Thank you
Do balance balls come in different sizes?
Yes they do
