I'm 70 years old and I have been very aware of my declining trajectory since age 55 and I didn't like where I was going. I just started working on the healthy hips program even though I purchased it over a year ago. Some people need carrots, others need sticks. Recently, I watched a series on centenarians on Netflix and saw a guy in his 100s who moved better than me. THAT was my carrot to finally take my health and fitness to a whole
new level!
Heck yes! Get moving!!!! 💪
That’s quote the kickstarter for anyone. 😅
Lol, I do need a hug, but YT notifications brought me here. 😂
🤗
Matt one of the best things you have said is letting us know it could take AT LEAST 6 months to help the back. Just knowing that, has encouraged by progress. Thank you!
Recovery from a concussion and looking for simple ways to practice and regain my balance. Thank you for such a great video.
I made the switch to zero drop and I have no more knee or back pain. I’m able to kick in martial arts and walk the next day! Woooooo! Thank you for your vids! Saved me!
What is zero drop?
@@patriciavarga4084 Zero drop shoes or barefoot shoes. Google them.
@@patriciavarga4084 shoes
@@Tzippi thank you! I’ve heard Matt speak about them.
This might just be 2 of the exercises in recent videos, but the timer for a guided exercise with constant encouragement to explore and play is helpful!
Google brought me back here but falling in my backyard is keeping me here. Love your channel!
Welcome to the party!
I'm down with the hugs, but I'm really here bc I'm noticing a shift in my body as I get older and - I turn 60 on my 🎉 later this year.
I'm doing physical therapy for a recovered ankle fracture, and this is one of the exercises they have me working on! I can do it perfectly on my good leg, but I lost so much muscle and balance on my other leg recovering from the injury! I practice this exercise every other day.
Good work! Keep going!!😊
With the knee bend I notice my back is not connected to my arms when I lean on something like a chair. I had a go with a lifting action and my back seemed more connected and my balance was so much better. Eventually, I just made a touching motion with my fingers, palm up.
You bring such valuable activities, Matt.
Thanks a bunch! I've always liked balance because I walk and trail hike a lot. I want body control, proprioception, and agility. And balance, of course 😂
Same minus the hiking hehe. Would love to hike but just don't have the time. Most trails "near" me are not near at all xd
Out of all your balance videos I love the 15 min 38 second video titled 'Powerful, simple leg strength and balance exercise for any age' in which you have shared 2 very simple but challenging exercises which any one can follow along while watching that video... I have shared that video to every other person I know😊...and myself follow that regime every Monday and Thursday....!!Great work..!!
Awesome! thanks for sharing!
Stroke rehab. Stroke has had an effect on my balance. Thanks for this.
You're welcome and keep on keepin' on! 💪
I have done a few of your workouts but not really seriously. However my sister's mil fell and broker her hip of course. She is not having a good outcome. I'm 63. Its past time for me to get real and get stronger. I will gladly accept a hug.
Subscribed to your channel after one of your videos on exercising your feet showed up on my feed. We are almost 70, me with broken pinkie toe and hubby with scrunched toes due to his wide feet, orthotic inserts, two times plantar fasciitis, meniscus tear, something going on in one of his his calf muscles preventing him from squatting, thick cushioned tennis shoes. Recently started researching barefoot shoes with wide toe box to see if transitioning from his bulky shoes with inserts to a better functioning shoe might help with some of his issues. Will take a while if he stays on board, but from everything I’ve read/watched, should definitely be beneficial.
Always interested in balance techniques- and once my toe heals ( couple more weeks) will have to work doubly hard on that foot/leg
Man, I love these videos. Just signed up for the Asian Squat program, which I've been working on for a couple of months. Thanks for all you do!
Thanks for signing up! :)
I've got nerve damage to my right leg, waist to toes. Had cauda equina 23 years ago and things have gone from bad to really bad. I turn 50 in March & my spine has been knackered since my mid 30s. I welcome new ways to help my balance
Kirsty do you also include healthy fats in your diet? Butter, ghee, tallow - little to no carbs? It’s been so helpful for me.
I walk cement curbs when no traffic. That’s been very helpful too.
Did something happen???? Sure did....just turned 76..😂...not a bad thing...but have noticed balance is not as it once was...luckily you just popped up on google...gonna give it a try
Thank you ❤
Thank you Matt!
My pleasure!
I'm here as a TBI survivor who has had rehab for balance but i have persistent minor issues, and i certainly don't want to fail. ❤ You have an impressive grace when doing these exercises, were you in ballet?
❤ I just love your practical exercise that is important to our daily movements. I have been a subscriber 🎉
I really like your channel. I have had several serious falls. Three broken bones in my foot. A fractured ankel, that I didn't even know about, after a fall just throwing out the trash. So I really need to do something to improve my balance. Love your mantra "fast is foolish". I need to learn how to do this in a safe way. Also, trying to work on the squat for better hip strength. Thank you so much for your content. 💕🌴😎

May I respectfully suggest bone broth (homemade if possible or the best at the stores). I have two cups a day total.
❤❤❤ Thank you!
I am learning roller derby and am struggling with my stability on skates. I need to find my balance!!!
👀Hoo boy! Good luck! And watch out for those elbows!
@Uprighthealth and thank you for replying!!! 💜
YT algorithm brought me here probably because I desperately need your ‘fix your back’ program
Add to my Golf exercises.
I need a hug 😂❤😊
Them Soft-Stars are bangin’.
I’m 68, and have been very sedentary for the past year - I now have almost no ability to stand on just my left leg. My right leg is a not too bad. Doing these exercises with any bend in my knee (either side) creates a lot of uncomfortable grinding in my knee (even putting most of my weight on a support). Should I continue, modify or do something entirely different.
I need to work on my balance. I believe it will help me with my core.
So need this? thanks 🙏
I've just recently taken up Karate and one of my biggest weaknesses is my balance, especially having chronic back pain which flares up when I'm doing some of the moves. I've found that considering my left side is the weakest, it's the side I can stay balanced on better and my right seems weakest from the balance viewpoint. I'm hoping these will change that
Watched this whilst doing a passive hang.
I had a concussion with brain bleed so need lots of help since my brain is affected.
I've been doing the clock, but no burn. I checked out this video again to see if I was doing it correctly. I'm going to look for the quad/glute burns next time.
I have atypical basilar migraine and one of my symptoms is a loss of balance. I bought a bicycle and can’t ride it without falling. I’m 70 so I need to protect my old bones
I clicked on a survey and here i am!
👌🏻
Matt is it helpful to contract your butt when balancing besides what it already is doing when balancing? My left side is much weaker.
Could def. be helpful to teach it turn on more!
@@Uprighthealth thank you Matt!
What to do when balancing and bending my left leg and the hamstrings hurt and cause the leg to shake? Weak hamstrings?
Keep at it! The shaking is a sign 🪧 of weakness in the muscle.
😊
What brought me to this video? My feet and ankles want to go wonky at will, plus, if I turn around too quickly, I go off balance. I can balance well on one foot, yoga style poses, but moving around... sometimes not good.
I tell everyone I know that one leg, balance exercises are what they should be doing, but aren't.
64 year old runner who's knees have never felt better!
Really like Matt here, and Ben... #Kneesovertoesguy
I know your mom or mother in law was impossible and you did your best. i walked with my Dad my hero who had Alzheimer's wherever he wanted to go. I loved/love him. Just .. go away.
For Ballance
I had a Stroke.🙏🙏🙏
Bent over and pulled my back and had pain for several weeks. I ended up with left leg shorter then right with a limp
What is that sign on the wall behind you, PRIGHT EALTH???
Upright
Upright ealth? EARTH? Wealth? Stealth?
@@kelzworldkz9347 Upright Health 😊
@@kelzworldkz9347Health. It's the name of the channel. I'm wishing I looked at the beginning of the video lol. Is it lit up and some letters are out?
Oh, I see. Lol. I'm pretty sure those used to be more outlined.
My whole life I put on my underwear standing up … one leg at a time. Now that is iffy at best … hence I am here. I guess it is a true sign I am getting old. I am now 74. P.S. part of the issue is pulling my leg and foot up enough to go into the waist band.
I find it much easier to balance standing on my left leg than on my right. is such a preference normal?
Yes! That’s why Matt suggests on the weaker side doing an extra set of any given exercise. Not sure about this one tho. These can be intense!
When doing these moves, I felt the burn more in my calf rather than the glutes....🤷
Nothing happened, I just know to keep working on my balance at 72 yo....
After some testing, they told me that my balance is bad. I always veer to the right side. 😅
Since my endometriosis has gotten bad, a lot of my muscles are struggling.
And I cannot listen properly the first 20 seconds coz back in my mind I wonder what "pright ealth" might be! 😂
Lots of clunking in my left hip. It doesn't hurt but so annoying.
I am getting older and notice I am losing my balance
reason: if you can't asian squat and can't balance, you die
My knee hurts
