    I'm 77 and in pretty good shape. I like these movements as they focus on functional fitness. I will incorporate them with my 5 to 10 mile walks and gym time.

    This is great. I'm only 33 but thinking long-long-term, I want to be able to play with my grandkids (if I'm fortunate enough to have any) and it not wreck me. Introducing these kinds of mobility practices are going to be helpful. Thanks for making this.

      Do it mate - do it for yourself. I'm 62 and I still play active and aggressive sports I love the fact that I can still run and dive around with far more agility and conviction than most people 20 - 30 years younger than me.

    Happy 50th Ryan! I'm approaching my 60th. I've been doing GMB off and on for nearly two years now. Still struggling with lower back pain, hip flexibility and upper body strength, but already doing far better than I was before. Just completed an 11-day hike on the Corfu Trail with no back or hip issues, partly thanks to doing your 5-minute warm-up each morning. Surprised myself by being able to do all these moves (yay!), although my Twisting Get-Up could be a lot smoother. 😬 Another fun routine to add to the mix, thanks!

    In 2005 a doctor told me that unloading a 53 feet trailer was not good exercise yet he could not explain why I was hot, tired and thirsty afterwards. There's a grocery warehouse I used to deliver to 20 minutes from his office and I invited him to come help me the next time I was there so he could see for himself. He declined. I guess using a manual pallet jack and breaking down some pallets was too much exercise for him?
    A load of soap/detergent weighs about 42,000 pounds but it is shrink wrapped and palletized. If the pallets are too high then you have to move the high layers onto another pallet. Grocery warehouses are driver unload or you can hire one of their people to do it for you. Depending on the warehouse it run $40 and up. Something like a load of Tide since it's mostly a straight pull off I'd do myself and send in a receipt for $80 for 1.5-2 hours of labor. Now, a load of Colgate can take 6-8 hours because of the mixed bag of items and you can't have more than one line item on a pallet.
    If there's an item that was not ordered it will be refused and then you will have to get in touch with your company for disposal. One time I ended up with 6 cases of 1/2 gallon cans of pineapple. The freinds I made that week at a few shippers!

    @lizardfirefighter110 Před rokem

    Here is another one to build strength and insurance with very little weight: 8 pound sledge hammer. Start out with 10 strikes to the ground ( weed patch ) then switch hand positions and do another ten. You should wear goggles and gloves. Also shoes or boots you don’t mind getting dirty😉
    Eventually as you work up to higher number of strikes it will not matter. Start counting the minutes instead 10 minutes for each hand position would be pretty awesome. By then yo will be in good shape! It is important to do deep squats after this kind of workout to help the back recover. 😉
    As a firefighter this is how I trained for axe work, along time ago.

    These were all a piece of cake for me except the support yourself on one arm and touch the other toe, which was quite difficult. Interestingly it’s easier with me left arm (non-dominant), which I suspect is due to some shoulder issues. I’m 63. Thanks for this vid.

    • @gmbfit
      @gmbfit  Před rokem

      Right on. And most of them *should* definitely be easy. Brushing your teeth is easy, but it's still important daily maintenance. And when you find one that's more of a challenge, that just shows something to spend a bit more time on :)

    • @ewallt
      @ewallt Před rokem

      @@gmbfit Thanks for the prompt reply. I’ve been doing burpees, so am pretty strong from all the push-up’s and squats. I do deep squats, so the getting things from behind was easy. I’m glad to have these exercises to add, and look forward to any similar videos you might have or suggestions. I mostly ski and hike for exercise.
      I plan to modify the push-ups in the burpees as per your video as it looks helpful for the shoulders.

      Right on - this is the best time to work on loosening up a bit, and we've got a bunch of videos on here to help. Let me know if you've got a specific area that's tight or causes problems for you :)

    What exercises you showed pushups (dandasana and chaturang dandasana) twisting etc are yoga moves.
    I do yoga daily early morning, i learnt yoga from childhood and I did teacher training and do take yoga classes. After 62 i feel my hamstring glutes tighten very fast. During exercise they are so smooth and yoga moves are flawless. I walk 5kms daily in one stretch. My routine yoga 1:15hr 6am. Walk at 9am one hour. But after sometime they become stiff. Whole day stiffness persist while walking at home doing daily chores. Hip joints pain while sleeping
    Diet is extremely satvic

      So you're spending over two hours a day doing "flawless" exercise and still feeling still all day and have pain... I think I found the flaw :(
