    The first time I did this my 2 pound weights were too heavy. Now my 3 pounds weights are too light. How crazy is that? Keeping with it and starting somewhere is the best advice in this video. It does get easier.

    The minute intervals between strength and cardio sure did make this zoom! How you can think of EVERYTHING (demo the move, suggested weight to use, encouragement, modifications, how much time is left, and what's upcoming) while doing the workout yourself is most impressive.

    That’s what I like best about your workout. I can make it my own and don’t feel like I have to follow you completely. I want to get 30 minutes or more with my workouts. If the daily workout is under 30, I go back to the beginning and do the warm up faster, then go back to the cool down. Love working out with you!😊

    Thank you. I have been discouraged by pain in my arms for months despite medical and physio intervention. For the first time today, I picked up weights for this program. While it still hurts, it is not causing major pain cos I can modify as you recommended. Thank you for your instructions, these are helpful. Love your programmes. Thank you. I hope I will get well soon and adjust accordingly. I will follow this programme for 4 weeks and let you know the outcome. Or else, you will end up getting multiple thank you notes. :)

    Wow! This really challenged me but it was great! I see that I did it a few months back but it felt brand new today. I didn't have to modify much but did have to stop for water a couple of times. I really liked how different it was moving from strength to cardio. Good one Jules! Thanks.

    Hello..Second day and done it and satisfied with my effort.Thank you Jules your soothingly voice motive me to do all the exercises. Only thing is that I can't raise my both arms in one go so I lift my arms alternat. Is that alright na? My back of the neck hurts if I raise both of the arms. In squat exercise I done it with both arms. Feeling good 🙏🙏🙏

    • @ImprovedHealth

      @ImprovedHealth  Před 2 lety +1

      Sorry Stacy, I can't remember now. But, for yourself, use what feels somewhat challenging. You want it to be getting hard by the time you reach the end of the reps.

  • @estherrivers6164

    Loved this! The exercise where you modified for yourself was helpful as sometimes i think modifying means i am weak or unfit. Now i know it's self care.

    • @ImprovedHealth
      @ImprovedHealth  Před 3 lety +1

      You are absolutely right, Esther! We all have different limitations or injuries and we have to cater workouts to our own abilities and needs. There are lots of exercises I can't do due to past injuries and I think most people over a certain age are in the same boat. Modifying absolutely means self-care and prevents further injuries:)
