Cardio Workout with Dumbbells for Seniors & Beginners // Osteoporosis Friendly!
Vložit
- čas přidán 10. 09. 2024
- Thank you for joining me for this fun and effective 20 minute workout! These exercises are osteoporosis and osteopenia friendly so there are no movements that involve twisting of the spine or rounding of the back. This workout is a great way to improve both your cardio fitness as well as your bone density.
After a quick warm up we will grab our hand weights (I'm using just 2lbs or 1Kg). Make sure you are using very light hand weights because we hold on to them throughout the entire workout. Water bottles are also great to use. This video is set to the music and the exercises are set to a timer, so you can choose to stay with me or go at your own pace. We will complete the workout with a cool down and a few stretches. You will feel great!
Enjoy and let me know how you like it in the comments!

![5 Things Successful People Do Before 8AM [FULL MESSAGE] | Terri Savelle Foy](/img/n.gif)
I am so grateful to have found your channel. I am 45 years old and have been struggling to find some form of exercise that feels good and that I look forward to doing. After dealing with tennis elbow and frozen shoulder for a few year I was left feeling frustrated that every time I start a workout program for beginners my body would hurt too bad to continue. I felt defeated and I joked to myself that I needed a workout for seniors because even the beginner programs were too much. I literally typed in senior workouts into CZcams to see what came up and I found you. I tried a few workouts and felt a little sore the next day, but nothing too painful. Now I look forward to my exercise! I also let go of trying to do it everyday and focused on when I had the time so that I didn't keep beating myself up. We all have seasons when we are busy with work, or families, and we don't have the time everyday. I finally have given myself permission to do what I can when I can and that's enough. I also don't get stuck on which video to do. I just pick one that looks interesting and try it out. 99% of your videos that I have tried feel good to my body. So grateful for this channel!! You have made a difference 🙂
I love your attitude Danielle and I'm so glad that my workouts are good for you! I agree, they are still challenging and are definitely not your grandma's workout! Thank you for your kind comments and keep up the great work!
Your workouts are helping me to gain strength and confidence picking up and carrying my 20 pound baby grandson. Functional fitness is essential as we age to maintain independence and reduce risk of falls and injury too. As a retired Orthopedic nurse I really do apreciate your channel and look forward to your graceful clear workouts. Bless you ❤
Wonderful Lottie, thank you for your kind words 🤩
Enjoy your grandson 😀
Thank you, Lauren, for the osteoporosis friendly series. I am so grateful. Keep them coming.
You are so welcome! Thanks Kim :)
Love this workout when I’m pressed for time, thank you!
Perfect! 🤩
Such an effective workout!! I really appreciate that the moves you do are all original. No repetition of what I see everyone else doing. Thank you, Lauren
You're so welcome! Thanks for appreciating my originality !
Enjoying the workout. Feel like I am 70 years old 😘❤️ thank you Lauren
Is that a good thing Ruth? I can't remember how old you are!
My sister and I love your Senior Shape workouts! Your calm demeanor and great combinations of movements makes for interesting and effective workouts. Thank you!

Glad it was helpful! Thanks Merle :)
Thanks Lauren. Love your workouts.❤
So glad! You are very welcome Emilia :)
Thank you for specifying which of your workouts are osteo friendly:) This is very helpful to all concerned.
sure, no problem! I always put them in the playlist as well so they are easy to find :)
Always appreciate work outs to help increase bone density
Great Kathy! This is a great one for that :)
Thanks Lauren. I have lost almost 90 lbs now. Your videos have helped. I'm 67 and in the best shape of my life. Plus, thanks for the links to leggings and tights. ❤

You're so welcome! Glad you like it ;)
I’m a sedentary 28 year old so I needed something “easier” to help build up my strength and your videos have been so helpful. Looking forward to becoming stronger ❤

Wonderful! Thanks for working out with me :)
Thank you so much for more osteoporosis friendly videos! Loved it!
Thanks April, I'm thrilled you loved it ;)
I love this one. It is short, so it fits into my busy schedule. I felt all the muscles in my body stretched, and I got low cardio also in this short time. I am grateful to you. Thank you!
Excellent! So glad it's a good workout for you :)
Thank you lauren👏👏🥰
You're so welcome!
Thanks, Lauren. You provide marvellous workouts and you are lovely to watch and follow. Very professional.
You're the best Martin! I appreciate your support so much :)
My heart is pumping and my soul is renewed!!! Thanks for another great workout.!!! Mike, 67
Woo hoo! Happy to hear it Mike!!
Lauren, this is wonderful that you are doing the osteoporosis friendly workouts. Thank you!
You are very welcome :)
Lauren, this workout is so awesome! Thank you for all you do FOR US🥰😍
I do it for great viewers like you Juanita :)
Wow! What an interesting plan for this week: lots of dumbbells, Pilates and standing stretches! I love it all! And today's cardio with dumbbells is a lot of fun - a variety of easy exercises. Exercises with dumbbells are very necessary for everyone, regardless of age. Thank you so much Lauren! I wish you a good week! We're looking forward to a new workout today: what's new for us from the inventive Lauren?
I appreciate your energetic support! The new video will come out on Tuesday. A full body strength with light dumbbells that dancer/barre inspired :)
Loved this class!! First time doing it, and since I’m recovering from carpel tunnel surgery, I’m gradually getting back into using weights, so 2lbs. was perfect!! I combined this class with the walking weight loss class and a 10 minute stretching class!!! Thank you!!! 😊
Wow! Nice combos Karen :)
After last week's Tabata, I decided to make Mondays my cardio day. I was very glad to see today's workout! It was terrific!
woo hoo! Thanks Staci ;)
Loved this. Did it twice…once with 3 lbs and once with 5 lbs. time for some slow yoga. Thanks for your hard work putting these workouts together for us Lauren, not to mention your bright and positive attitude! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much Lynn! I LOVE that you did this twice. I'm so impressed :)
Yay, Lauren! Another good one. You always hit the mark with these workouts. I feel my body is responding, and the variety in the moves is never boring.
So glad to hear it, thanks Corinna :)
Loved doing this cardio and weights workout. I will be repeating it. You are the best,Lauren!
So glad! Thanks Sonia :)
👏I worked with 3 lb. weights and am sweating at the end of this! Many thanks. 🙏
Great job! You are so very welcome Violet :)
Thank you for these work outs I really like them I am so grateful !!!
Glad you like them! 💜
I am so exciting with your workout, great thanks
You're so welcome!
@@SeniorShapeFitness ❤❤👌👌
Thank you Lauren. You are helping me to start exercising at age 61 and I am so grateful 😊
Wonderful! You are most welcome Rachel :)
Yesterday I did your "full body level up" routine. And oh boy did I feel it when I did this one today! Thanks, it was great.
Great job Patti :)
71 yo with rare spinal disease and osteo….perfect but modified some stuff but used 5 pound weights in a few of the moves :) so refreshing to find something for us older folks. Seems a lot of other influencers are all geared to really intense workouts using very heavy weights.
That is exactly why I created my channel! So glad you enjoyed it :)
Thank you so much for another great workout. I love that there is so much variation!
You're so welcome!
So glad I found you! Been doing another site for 2 years. Need a change. Thank you
You are so welcome! I'm glad you found me too Susan :)
Thank you Lauren for the osteo friendly exercises. I really appreciate all you do!
You're so welcome! Glad you like it Kim :)
I am really embracing my senior years with these workouts. I no longer feel like I need to kill myself to get results. Love the weights and cardio and the stretching is awesome.
Exactly Ellen! That is what I hope for; not having to kill yourself, but getting a good workout, feeling great and seeing results :)
Excellent! Thank you! So glad to work with weights and cardio again without moves that could ignight old injuries.
You're most welcome Julie :)
I love your workouts! This one feels like we worked every muscle. Love it!
Excellent Lorraine! Great to hear :)
I feel the same, amazing overall body work!
Thank you so much for this. I'm becoming weaker, shaky and more unbalanced with my fibromyalgia unfortunately even though I have been doing short cardio sessions on youtube (10-15mins), yoga for a good while, walking when the TX heat isn't 100 and above and had restarted pilates this year which I haven't done consistently but did one yesterday and today on someone else's site with a very lovely lady from England I believe and it really was a killer for me even tho it's pretty basic. To get back to you, I enjoyed this work out and did it yesterday and I stay posted for workouts I think I can do. I have osteoarthritis in my whole spine, and other joints and trying to prevent osteoporosis. Thank you once again ❤🙏❤ Jill
Thank you, so glad you liked this one! May I recommend trying this chair pilates video of mine? czcams.com/video/jsFzFiyDqBs/video.html
a lot of viewers that have fibromyalgia really like this one.
@@SeniorShapeFitness Thank you so much, From Jill (almost 62)
Did it with 5lb weights. It was tough! Should have listened to you Lauren!
You're funny Julia, I bet it was tough with 5lbs!
The sessions go fast. No boring. Since I started doing this faithfully, I can’t tell you how much better I feel! Physically and mentally and I have more energy❤
Great! That's amazing to hear :) Keep up the good work!
Discovered your videos last week - this the fourth I’ve done, and loving them all! Thanks for your creative, low impact approach. So motivating. I’ll be tuning in regularly!
Great Cynthia! Happy to have you working out with me 🤩
It's a great exercise, I will do this twice a week. Thank you❤
You're so welcome! Glad you like it :)
Love your videos and use them weekly to supplement my gym classes. One thing that does surprise me is that I’m encouraged to hydrate in my classes but you don’t give water breaks. I take a quick sip when I can in between sections.
Absolutely Rina! Water is important, but your right, I only have a few videos where there are water breaks. Definitely keep drinking your water :)
Thank you and bless you for doing all the videos you do to keep us in shape. Also the osteoporosis you do. I never really do them but now I'm 52 year old and I started to arthritis I starting to doing them now. God bless
Good job Keysha! Thanks for working out with me :)
Hi and thank you. I'm 58 and overweight from a sedentary job right now. I only have a limited time in the mornings to workout. I appreciate these quick effective workouts.
HI Paula, great to hear you are enjoying my workouts! Have a great week :)
I just love this workout. Great for days when I'm shorter on time. Your creative, strengthening and safe routines are such a supportive dynamic to my mental and physical health. Thank you!
My pleasure Priscilla! Im thrilled you are enjoying my workouts :)
Perfect length and intensity to unwind after work. I work with 2 and 3 year olds; working out and keeping fit helps me keep up with them so thank you!
Oh, bless your heart Amy! Glad you like it :)
So enjoyable! Your moves are originals, thank you for that. I appreciate this one being osteoporosis friendly too. Thank you!
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Fabulous exercises with dumbbells. Love this presentation of 60 seconds then change.
So glad Dana, thanks!
Thank you, Lauren. I needed a quick early morning workout and this was perfect! I was diagnosed with osteoporosis about 8 years ago. I'm only 5', and petite, so definite risk factors. I've been on meds and have been doing weight bearing exercises and I reversed the osteoporosis. As long as I can, I will continue to incorporate cardio and strength training into my routine. ♥️♥️
Great Rene! Keep up the good work. I love to hear that you reversed your osteoporosis :)
@SeniorShapeFitness women need to know that osteoporosis is reversible! I follow a vegan diet, and haven't had red meat since I was 17. There's plenty of calcium sources besides dairy products.
@@reneklein6049 so great! I haven't had red meat either since I was around 12. I don't miss it. I have an obsession with cheese however....
Lauren, this was a a great workout! Thank you so much!
You're so welcome! Thank you Sharline :)
Thank you Lauren today was so much better than yesterday. My back didn't take over today. I combined this was another trainer doing weights in a chair.
Glad to hear your back is feeling better :)
It's difficult to start the week, but after opening the page and seeing you so cute and dynamic it encourages me to do the routine, thank you Lauren. Have a nice week.
Thanks Mario, hope you have a nice week as well!
dziękuję to chyba będą moje ulubione ćwiczenia z ciężarkami 😀
Great! love to hear that :)
Thank you thank you thank you…I can’t say it enough! I’m 69 years young and have osteopenia. Your videos are amazing for individuals like myself. I really enjoyed this video. I was able to get my cardio and strength training in at the same time! Please keep up the good work ❤
Wonderful! You are most welcome Sharon. I'm thrilled you are enjoying my videos :)
Thank you for creating the osteo friendly workouts! Loved this one!
Great! You are very welcome Diana :)
One of my favorites, fun moves!
Great Amy! Thanks so much :D
Lauren loved this workout!❤ Thank you for sharing them with us. Blessings always.😊
PS...Would love a longer workout. 🫣
Glad you love it! Until I get longer workouts made, I challenge you do the workout twice, for a second set :)
I’ve had to change my way of thinking that if it isn’t hard I haven’t done much. A lie! Great to be able to move with enjoyment and success great workout.🎉
So true! We said Debbie :)
Hello Karen, i am so happy that i fund you. After loosing my belove dog, i would not take walk like i use to do. I knew i had to do something different and here you are!! Thanks you for helping me. You are so nice. From Montréal, Québec.

Hi Lauren. In the last 6 weeks, I have been super lazy about exercising. I found your videos and for the last two weeks I have been alternating between the chair yoga, the chair pilates and this cardio. Fantastic! I also love your very soothing voice. It is almost like a meditation. Thank you! Keep them coming!
You are most welcome! So glad you are enjoying my videos and keeping your body moving :)
Thank you Lauren for your new workout this morning. It was so nice to have a different type of cardio/tone for strength. I do my best to workout with weights of all heaviness 3xs a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I do have Osteopenia so keeping my bone marrow up with Strength Training is a priority for me.
My pleasure Laura, so glad you like it! Keep up the great work :)
Perfect! I was able to go from 3 LB weights to 5 LB weights today and I couldn’t believe how much stronger I am after a week of Lauren’s video’s!!
Wow! Amazing Kathy :)
