    Well, you had me at ‘Hi everybody…..”.
    81 year old male, almost 81/2 months out of a triple bypass. Really appreciate the critical need for including some focus on strength and balance, as well as cardio. Ideally searching for a 30-40 minute beginner’s version of this one. But confident one exists in your remarkable repertoire.
    Loved the music, especially the primal voices and rhythms.
    So glad I found you. Many thanks!

    This was a balance challenge extreme for me. It will be a challenge to keep trying to get that balance improved for more than 6 - 8 seconds. I added it on to your 70s Dance Cardio. Once more my husband was singing along. 😊

    Very challenging 5 minutes for me. I used 1 kg dumbbells and hope that I am still able to move tomorrow. 😂 I felt it in my arms and my shoulders. But at least the balance part was no problem at all. I think, I should be looking for more strenghts workouts.

    Thanks Jules for this great workout video. Static balance exercises are fantastic but the dynamic balance exercises take it to the other level as it requires more coordination too. Glad you included light weight too. Sometimes I practice only the static ones with my eyes closed for a few seconds. Thanks again for keeping us motivated. Blessed to have a wonderful teacher like you.Happy holidays and stay blessed❤

    OMG 🤣, having just completed the leg and glutes workout I thought this would be a breeze. It looked like I could have submitted Santa's 5 minute bloopers. I loved the workout but my arms felt like jelly and while yours were out straight mine were close to my thighs. 😆. My toes kept touching the ground like I was playing pat a cake with the floor. I will definitely have to keep doing this until my balance gets. better. Don't worry, I was being careful and had something next to me to stay safe! Have a great day Jules.

      Absolutely. I use light weights when I work triceps since I find it definitely works them more. When weights are too heavy, other muscles start to take over and the triceps aren't worked as much.
