    I am so thrilled that I have discovered you and your excellent videos. It’s so nice to find someone who cares about seniors. I’ve been doing your exercises for about a week, and I simply love them!😊

    Doing this one again, a year later...one of the things I like about these shorter workouts is that they provide success experiences...reinforcing doing them. Thanks for putting together such thoughtful videos.

    I've already commented on these dynamic stretches--they're great. PLEASE, think up more dynamic stretch routines. I can't tell you how many times I return to this routine, always leaving revitalized, supple, and feeling oh-so-good! Thanks again, Joe!...Anastasia

    The standing package of 8/30 exercises is wonderful. This one ended with dynamic stretches. I totally enjoy all your stretches, and do all 3 prescribed ones (AM, 4 EVERY DAY, PM), but I especially enjoy the dynamic ones because I can readily feel that I'm exercising as well...Anastasia

    I am so thrilled to have found this excellent, comprehensive and convenient group of exercises. After realizing it was unrealistic to attempt things I did years ago, I wasn't sure where to turn. I searched for exercises for seniors, and voila, I found this. Thank you so much. Now during these days of social distancing, it is even more relevant. So nice to do without having to leave home or invest in expensive equipment

    I love starting my day with this dynamic stretching routine and then following it with the Hips or Lower Back exercises. I'm increasing my flexibility and even more importantly, my alignment! Thank you Mike, best exercises for those starting out or with injuries. Also appreciate the pace, deep breaths and calmness throughout.

    Hi Mike, This is a lovely routine but unfortunately after you say the words "let's get into it" the sound gets almost totally muted. I don't quite understand this as the beginning is fine. I wonder if anyone else has mentioned this? If there is nothing to be done I'll just follow on as I watch you! It's not critical so don't worry about it. Was only curious if it is just me that is having problems. Have a wonderful day. xx Eve

    • @MoreLifeHealth
      @MoreLifeHealth  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey Eve. A few others have also mentioned this to me particularly in regards to several older videos. I have recently been working on improving the sound in newer videos, hence why this particular video/several older videos may sound like how you described. You can however turn on subtitles by pressing the 'CC' button down the bottom of the video so you don't miss anything that is being said. 🙂
