    thank you for these videos, most helpful. I started following your advice about 2 months ago, I am now able to jog for 1500 metres without stopping, prior to this I had not run for years. By the way I am 85 years old and diabetic, thank you again, Michelle

      @ariadnefritz. I jogged 1500 meters today, it was fun, even raining. First time I have in ten years. I'm 80 in a few weeks. If you follow the John McDougall diet, your diabetes too will be cured. We both may soon jog 3000 meters. Will Harlow is sure a great guy.

    Thank you for your sincerity and consideration for older people. We love you. All the exercises you show are doable and cent percent effective..
    Am 79 years old and follow your videos. Feel very good doing these exercises and routine. I find regularity is the key for their total effectiveness.

    Thanks once again! I’m 74, an avid cyclist, golfer, Nordic skier, kayaker and hiker! And I’ve had both of my hips and my knees replaced due to congenital hip issues. I have been very committed to keeping everything working, and I do appreciate the range of exercises you share.
    I never thought of using my door stopper for squats! I will now - I have the same one.

    I'm not over 50, but I can't recommend those lunges fast enough when you're trying to rebuild the strength in your knees. I really put mine through a lot of abuse a couple of years ago while (over)training for Ironman. That exercise, while seemingly so simple and low impact, was invaluable. For anyone who hasn't tried it, It can be strenuous at first, but it works wonders.

    I needed to know how to activate the quadriceps muscle, specifically. I have been concentrating on gluten and hamstring strengthening. At the gym I quit the keg extension machine, because despite targeting quadriceps, I would overly straighten my leg, thereby causing pain right below the knee. So I've been neglecting quads since then! Thank you, Will.

I am told that I have to be careful as there are torn meniscus and little or no cartilage and other injuries to the knee because I kept walking daily. Can you advise which exercises i should do now ?
