And many of your exercises both here and in other videos can be done wherever like while in line at the grocery, reading in the library, putting gas in the car. You give us the knowledge, it’s up to us to make use of it. Great job Kelly, thank you!!

Help, suggestions..ty..❤
If I'm able to do full squats, can those still help or is it better to do a mini squat?
If someone is safe, doing what they can is great!
These legs exercises cannot be applied with those with extreme lymphedema leg pain, with super massive leg swelling. These exercises causes the pain to go off the chart that not even heavy duty pain meds can mask. You need to address people with severe lymphedema pain. At this severe stage her leg no longer even works which you do not address as well. YOU NEED VIDEOS that address severe lymphedema cases. My wife is screaming and crying is extreme pain for hours on end. No one will issue a pain management program until her lymphedema can be gotten under control. She simply wants to kill herself to escape her pain. Why won’t someone help her? She has insurance with zero deductible. Some 12 doctors later, no one knows how to truly help her. Yet you do. Now it’s become so bad, it’s literally causing her leg to become DEAD!! She’s losing her leg if intervention does not happen soon. For God’s sake, someone needs to help her. 8 emergency hospital visits in 12 weeks has not helped. We’re in Northern Virginia.
Thanks in advance.
You can't expect someone doing videos on such a complex subject, that doctors don't even understand it, to address every person's issue. Don't put the blame on this woman, that is horrible.
@@coehelen Wow. You took my message completely out of context, as I was not pointing blame at anyone. Only that she addresses mild cases, not serious cases. Your harsh response is completely uncalled for.
