Great stuff. I`m 73. Started doing these simple exercises 15 months ago, five times a week. Huge difference in flexibility and energy level. Also, I do treadmill 5X week. My hamstrings were very very tight, now I can lift my leg past 90 degrees. My hip muscles are now flexible. My walking stride is wider. If you`re feeling your age and have low energy.....you MUST make a change. I feel 45 now.
Great work Malcolm, keep it going!
Thanks, Malcolm! Encouraging.
Achieved my goal. 10,000 deep squats...took 600 days. Lost 20 lbs.!!
@@malcolmwright914 Excellent Malcolm! You are the type of person we would love to join our Facebook group to help keep all of us motivated and hopeful! facebook.com/groups/livewell50. Hope to see you on the inside!
Thanks for sharing
Great, I’m 74 & do 6 aqua classes a week, 2 swim fit, 2 yoga & 1 session on the toning chairs. Also lost over 7 stone (100 lbs) Have managed to avoid a hip replacement for almost 6 years now because of these activities. Gives me a great social life too.
Excellent, keep it up!
Wow fantastic well done 🙏
Scapular retraction, Bridge, Squat, ankle flexion, grapevine, good clear demonstration
Thanks!
I’ve let myself go after having aortic aneurysm surgery two years ago………the surgeon saved my life (literally!) and now I’m throwing it down the toilet….I needed to find somewhere to start and this is it. I’m 65 and have been active all of my life (17 years military, amateur boxer, rugby player) so it s depressing to see how I have fallen.
Start slowly and build from there. Remember what it was like to train when you were a boxer and tap in to that dedication of energy 😎
Omygoodness God has let me to you. Hubby n I 79/80 & going down fast! After very active lifestyle this sucks so bad! What I’m watching is easy & anyone with “heart & desire can do these things. Just 🙏 my body sees it like my brain & heart does. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LOVING & CARING FOR OLDER GENERATIONS. We took care of my mother for decades due to Alzheimer’s & my mother in law too. Not easy. We do not want & Lord I 🙏 our children not be burdened with that responsibility. Although I know they will if needed. Gonna sit down today together n watch several of ur videos n decide of a few to get started. Will touch back down the road & let ya know how we are doing. Hugs🥰
Awesome, welcome aboard!
I’m 83, about four or five years ago I just sat down and quit moving. I was always very active, and when I was 54 I started long-distance bicycle riding with my grown daughters. When I was 58, a friend and I rode bicycles across the USA 3600 miles. I was in very good shape. Now I find myself barely able to shuffle out the door to my car. I was depressed and thought well I’ll just sit here and die. Well, when you’ve been extremely healthy and active you don’t die right away, it’s a long process. Now I am going to try to gain lost ground. I just bought a walker with a seat so I can walk, sit down, and walk again. My goal is to walk to the end of my street and back, which is about 3/4 of a mile. I will also incorporate these exercises, as my physical therapist already gave me a couple of them to do. Who knows, maybe I’ll walk across America. On our bike ride across the USA we met an older man in Montana who was doing just that. (The Pacing Parson - CZcams)
Best of luck!
Thank you so much for your videos. I am a female retired nurse, 83 years old, active and never smoke nor drink.I am 5 feet 2 and weigh 129 lbs. I love dancing, yoga and zumba. Just few days ago, i have a lower right back pain. I went to chiropractor and massage therapist. Still I have the pain in the right lower back. I am following your exercises and hope i will better. I just found you website tonight and thank you that I saw you videos. USA follower. God Bless you and your wife.
ATTENTION everyone 60 and over that is reading this let me give you a big ol huge because I love you . And stay motivated and moving as much or little as you can because, REMEMBER YOU ARE AWESOME 👏🏽💪🏽😎

Great advice and exercises, for me at my age of 82, I'm struggling a bit with
my balance with the steps a little, but I'm sure that once I get into a rhythm it will improve. My biggest problem is getting up off my back at the moment, 😅 so I hope as I go along that will improve.
You can do it!
Thank you. I'm 74, too sedentary, need this! Looking forward to regaining balance confidently. This is day 1.
You can do this Evelyn! Go next level at livewell50.com 30 day full money back no questions asked, nothing to lose :)

I am sixty three and have doing pilaties for ten years and although i have a back injury it has totally strengthened my entire body
I'M REALLY IMPRESSED WITH the first exercise.....I didnt know to do that and felt much stronger even after doing it the first few days and will continue to. It keeps alot of strain off my lower back when i'm busy lifting and moving things. I luv it!!! (I had a low back injury and thought i'd never be able to live without the pain) that exercise was just what i needed!!!
Excellent Lara! Happy to help 😎
if your over sixty, start with a walk /cycle, cycle for 10 to 15 mins,then walk for 10 to 15 mins,workout a route,which lasts for about an hour, your basically jumping on and off the bike until you finish the route.
it never gets boring,and gets you very fit,fantastic for the lockdown.
A route?
I'm over 60 and I did an hour HIIT workout today. I've consistently done walking and body weight calisthenics since Jan 1. I workout almost every day. I definitely get over 4k steps every day but some days, if I'm sore because I blasted a weight session or HIIT session then I do a 15 minute stretching workout once I reach my step goal. I'm ok with 4k steps but now I'm usually over 6500. Flexibility and strength are more important to me than 8k-10k steps. So this is good advice!😊
You are doing great, keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻
I'm 53 & so happy to see these exercises explained... I'm not immobile & I'd like to stay this way waaaaay into my old age 😄💪🦵🏋️♀️🧎♀️💃🤸♀️🚴♀️🧘♀️ I'm currently unemployed & feel that I've lost a lot of muscle tone due to not being active (I love having jobs that keep me activly moving) & I'd like to start an exercise routine & this looks like it's perfect for me!! 😄💪🦵 Thank you, I'm so glad I found your videos! 🙋🏻♀️👍

Thank you for considering us over 60s. The exercises are very well demonstrated and easy to understand.
Now I have to be consistent.
You're so welcome!
I’m thankful to you Hazebrown27..many times people forget that, I forget that I’m 62. I went through Columbia College dance school in Chicago. I also had classes at International dance studio. But I’m out of whack now. Hey can’t even jump rope one time!! That’s insane.

Yes, start off by doing a little bit of exercise every single day and also try to increase your steps just a little bit at a time. You got this, stay positive!

I am a male 71, I found these suggestions practical for the truly new to a fitness regime, fortunately for me I started getting ready for old age over 50 years ago and approached it not unlike saving for a quality retirement. still do weights 45 mins to an hour 4 days a week, yoga and meditation every day and HIIT groundwork training on rugged terrain once or twice a week also alpine ski in winter kayak in summer regularly. I did not always make the best choices in life however the commitment to fitness that I never faltered on through good times and bad has paid huge dividends in the past ten years of retirement...for me these truly are as the old adage goes my "golden years". Each day I feel blessed at how well my body works at this
I age,I live without limitations and I try to get young people to buy in so that they might experience the same later in their lives. We have a daughter who competes in the Iron Man events, so a win there...God bless all. it is never too late to improve!

I tripped flat down on a speed bump.I do have a 4 way stretch bands and I'm going to try your exercises. Thanks so much.I'm so tired of burning pain.

Hello Deanna, how are you?
Praying for you.
Not everyone can tolerate whey protein. Try something not associated with milk products.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge to help seniors. I’m very aware of my inflexibility and balance issues, and I’m willing to work hard to become stronger and more flexible.

I do whatever I feel like everyday free on youtube , yoga I follow many instructors , Kukuwa, aerobic walking, dancing, qi gong, yi jin jing, all great for seniors. Pool aerobics the best water for seniors. And stretching which yoga covers but if you don’t like yoga, just do a stretching routine. So much free great instruction no excuse not to exercise even if you don’t own a pool .It makes you feel great.
Maybe the best front row experience I've had since I attended the opening Broadway preview of Jersey Boys! Great job, Ed. We don't need hyperbolic "boot camps"-as you admirably demonstrated here, clarity and simplicity of direction will work just fine, just like a daily 30 minute walk. Thank you!

Great! We should never stop moving and exercising. Most of my life I have been very flexible and active. For the past 10 years, my work has had me sitting down for long hours. I was becoming stiffer and achy. I am 67, so I partially retire and joined joined a gym and added walking when not going to the gym. What a difference! I feel like I am as flexible and strong as my old 30 years old self. At my age, sitting on the floor and getting up without support and using your hands is the best sign of longevity for a person. I have no problem at all doing that and more. Your teaching is highly appreciated by us old folks.
I love this. You didn’t overwhelm me with too many exercises. This feels doable.
I have terrible knees. Is there an alternative to squats
Excellent!

Much appreciated, thanks.
Thank you ! I have always loved being still. At 67, I feel groggy when I lie or sit . I had to force myself to do these 5 mins and it made a difference, more focused, less anxiety.

Pushing 70, Thankyou for caring. Will be starting out slow but this will work ! 5 and "good to go exercises". Thankyou for expanding exercises to other areas of the body too. Good health to you.
Hello Joy, you are very welcome and good health to you also!
Exercise 5 is called "Off the Broadway." It's a dance step.
Yes, it sure is!
@@FrontRowwithEd ...and it gives you the urge to learn "soft shoe" or tap dancing. Talk about balance and coordination!
Thank you for your fantastic video. I’m so glad I caught this. I’m sure It is serendipity. Great job. These exercises are totally doable. I worked at Chicago Health Club, I think it’s called Bally now. I loved giving classes, working out on machines. The pay was lousy, but I was able to use the facilities for free. Steam,sauna, whirlpool I’d walk out of there feeling like a million dollars!!That was the healthiest I’ve ever been in my whole life.

Sound advice to me. Thanks. You have a new sub! 😁
I just turned 60, recently added 25 lbs from Covid and am out of shape. 😢
I started my diet on Jan. 1 and have dropped from 180 to 175 by cutting carbs and incr. protein.
I like to walk daily and hike weekends. I will start resistance training next week M-W-F.
Then drop to 2x per week after 3-6 months. The Senior Center free gym is just 1.5 miles away.
Thank you for a exercise programme for the elderly Found your exercises very helpful And really enjoyable With out all the sales gimmicks a pleasure to listen to
Glad it was helpful!
You can drop your shoulders back and hold onto a door frame with both hands and lean in slightly to for the scapular retractions it opens the chest out. So I’ve been told. I do this so I don’t need bands and have more stability.

You are very welcome 🙏🏼
Thank you!! Just what I need to get back into exercising!🌟💪
Awesome Karen!
Thanks for your advice Ed. I wasn't looking for an exercise video but I am 66 and was attracted by your headline. Your presentation was excellent and instructions very clear and I have now adopted this into my regular exercise.
Thanks Gordon!
This just in: 3’X36” FOAM ROLLERS! They offer great STANDING support. They are very light - EZ to carry around and place anywhere you need to, and they STAY pretty much in place because of their size! You can use them for standing support and stand without them while they remain there for support when needed - unlike a cane, more freedom and utility than a walker (and looks hella more KOOL!). I can’t stand very well AT ALL and these are great support in an exercise area - not taking up space, light and easy to move around.
I am excited about this because I just stumbled upon this idea YESTERDAY! I bought 2 18” (cheapest!) rollers and found they give even better support when used together.
What I found them to be GREAT for is sitting on your knees - easy and done many times in my youth, I can’t even get anywhere near being able to attain decent posture any much more upright than the child’s pose.
I used a couple of 18” rollers for the support I needed and was AMAZED - I was finally able to sit on my knees with my back upright and straight!
I was a serious Aikidoka and probably overdid “walking” on my knees and doing self-defense from that seated (kneeling!) position.
With age and arthritis I couldn’t do ANYTHING on my knees beyond crawling!
3” length foam rollers worked even better. Different lengths (1.5’, 2’, 3’!)can be used together for an even better aid to standing and kneeling support - in addition to the other uses I have seen.
Basically, I just discovered FOAM ROLLERS WORK GREAT FOR STANDING AND KNEELING SUPPORT!!
U heard it here first!
Thank you for sharing this. Glad I found your channel today. I'm going to start doing these exercices Im 61. I'm in fairly good shape. I want it to get even better.

Thank you so much! I REALLY needed this information. Can't go to the gym because of WiFi. Needed something I can do in my tiny house. This is perfect! You probably just saved my life. I'm 68.
You are so welcome Sharon! Happy to save your life :)
Hello Sharon, how are you?
Thank you Ed and Elizabeth. It is very helpful to have a basic set of exercises.
You are very welcome, good luck~ Ed
What a great video! You are very clear in your instruction and go slow enough for us to go by. Also you are very respectful and you seem kind. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Hello Kathy, how are you?
hello! iam a filipina 64 yrs old, widow, i love exercise,
Good luck Eden!
Very good. Thank you. I am 72 with a sciatica compromised left leg! This will definitely be added to my 3 times a week routine. Until last year I was doing Greek circle dancing and can see its value. Hopefully, post virus that can start again. Many thanks - Murray
Best of luck Murray!
Thank you. Over 60 with MS, quarantined in Egypt. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome!
Love how you explain why it is important. I have started a channel for women over 50/60 covering health, nutrition and mindset. I will be putting this video in my playlist for my viewers. Thank you
Thanks for sharing the video, I'm happy to hear you liked it. You may also be interested in our new project, Live Well 50, dedicated to healthy, successful aging at 50 and beyond mailchi.mp/integrativephysicaltherapyservices.com/live-well-50 Good luck with your channel, it looks great!!
Excellent, and I might add what my great personal trainer told me: "When doing squats or sit-ups, always hold in/tighten your abdominal muscles. This strengthens your back as you do the exercises.."
Hello Martha, great insight! Yes, contracting your core helps to stabilize your trunk. Better keep that trainer :)
I feel that we should focus on our core at the beginning of each of these or any other exercise. Kind of sense and firmly tighten your core.

Hello Martha, how are you?
Thank you so much because I can’t walk much anymore my balance is off feels like I’m falling 💕 Pray theses work outs help 🙏
You are so welcome Drusilla! Also for balance, check out this video I did czcams.com/video/Ag-HYahriog/video.html Good luck!
thank you for remembering us "seniors" And "elderly".
We seem to get to a point in our lives where "body image" is not important any more. We are not trying to impress anyone else with our attractiveness. So we start with a little "slouching" and it's all downhill from there. If we would realize that overall health not just being "sexy", is what the real goal is here, we have a better chance of staying healthier and out of hospitals! Again, - Thank you!!😊
I am 63 both my knees are shot both hips going also both shoulders in much pain I was go kart racing two years ago ballroom dancer until 46 years old was an avid walker used stationary bike and now all this breaking down came on quickly cannot walk giving up any ideas?
Ed, great post...seniors like myself(68), (BM finisher in '17) would do themselves a huge favor by performing these exercises. Thank you!

Love this!!! I’m a PTA who works in geriatrics. The scap retractions, sit to stands, and bridges are on my “everyone needs to do to stay out of a nursing home” list. I also add ankle dorsiflexion with the heel lifts (because people lose that as they age and it’s important for good floor clearance when walking) and single leg stands (to prevent shuffling gait patterns). I’m so happy to see this simple workout! I’m hitting the subscribe button!
Excellent Heather! We need more therapists like you in our profession. Since you work in a nursing home, here's a link to my osteoporosis playlist as many clinicians are not aware of the precautions czcams.com/video/BaJ7mGf2eys/video.html Keep up the good work :)
Thank you I’m 72 and you are right on about these exercises I’m motivated👍
Wonderful Stephanie!
I am 79 years old and i just want to thank you for sharing these very important exercises.

Thank you doable, practical and good for you during this pandemic when we really need it.

You are very welcome Merlene!
Some solid information here. Exercise 1 is gold. Just had 8 months of physio to correct this issue (I’m 62). Treat yourself to an exercise band and save £££!
Thanks and good luck, hope you feel better soon!
Thank you very much. After I watched you do the excersisses I decided to do them myself . It gave me courage to try them . At 76 I think it will boast my strength & stamina.
Wonderful!

Thank v much.
63 here my back is in constance pain.
Never really kept going with core exercises before. So now I'm paying the price.
With the help of these exercises to strengthen the core muscles.
Sitting a big help.
I am the only one that can do this for me
Tnx again Ed.
Good luck, remember to stress Consistency with the exercises over Intensity!
Wish I'd found this video back in March when our quarantine started! But it's never too late, right?
Correct! It's never too late to start, good luck!
Absolutely fab. I longwalk, up to 10 kms every few days. Bike about 30kms every few days. Yoga too. I’m a 74 years female, and I really like your take on exercise. Thank you.
