You have helped me a lot in my life , i wish we could meet some day,and i could hug you and scream thank you .i really mean it
That is so great to hear thank you - I'm always happy to meet people if you're ever visiting nearby!
I have learnt a lot from you and do several exercises daily. Thank you Will Harlow.
Will, thank you!! I'm 86 and caring for my wife in palliative care (Cancer). I need more energy and strength; this workout will definitely move me in that direction. Wishing you must success from the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia USA! You are an inspiration!!
You are such a star for those of us 50+ and up. Just wish you weren't located 3,000 miles across the pond!
Always happy to help - it's a shame I can't reach everyone but at least I am able to share my work with people through TH-cam!
@@HT-Physio BTW got your book. It is chock full of great advice. Thanks for all your efforts on behalf of grateful seniors.
Even if you're not a senior, these are good exercises
Hi Will. Your videos are superb! They are so effective, instructional and educational. I have been managing a herniated disc since my 20s, mostly with yoga. Now in my 40s, I was experiencing some loss in my range of motion and strength. I also learned I need muscle to build bone, which led me to resistance bands. Now I alternate between yoga and your videos. I can't thank you enough for making your professional guidance so accessible.
Brilliant! Thank you! I'm 68 and disabled, and am wanting to get back into shape after a truly chaotic year.
My medical insurance gives me an allowance for OTC products, which includes resistance bands, so I picked up several (from medium to 2X). They arrived this afternoon! So I looked through YT videos for a good workout, and decided to start with this one--I'm glad I did!
I only did one set of each exercise for starters since I'm so out of shape, and boy, I feel the burn already! 😊
I look forward to continuing my fitness journey with your help!
I just found your channel, I’ve had 2 spinal surgeries. Trying to get stronger so I’m in less pain. And get into the dress 👗 I want wear to my niece’s wedding. Also just go set of tube resistant bands and was not sure how to use them. Thank you 😊
Have been wondering at how to strengthen my core and upper body shoulder muslces. Have been looking for a good video to help me get starte. This one seems to be the best. The video is very clear - with respect to body position and movement. Thanks very much. An excellent one - for me atarting at the age of 70+ !!
I'm almost 87 and I do super sets, but I cannot do them as you recommend, that is, without recovering between sets. For example, for my chest I do an inclined bench press 12 reps with 50lb dumbbells. This brings my pulse to 145bpm when my normal resting pulse is 54. My next exercise is on an assisted pullup apparatus for my back. I need to wait until my pulse goes down to 100bpm before doing a set of 14 pullups. My goal is maintaining strength. If I were to immediately go from one exercise to another without recovering my respiration, I would only be capable of using a weight far less than optimal to bring myself close to muscle failure. This is a recipe for losing strength.
Thank you for the video! It was very informative! I was wondering how many days a week would you do the workouts?

Hi Will, Great workout videos for the over 50''s. I am 65 and use to go to the gym but started doing band exercises at home 18 months ago. With respect to this full body video I struggled to change bands between the two exercises in each superset hence I did each exercise three times instead eg banded squats x 3, rest then banded press x 3, rest then curl & press x 3 etc. This still resulted in a good full body workout.
Great workout! I have your book and there are so many exercises from which to choose. This helped narrow dow it down for me.
Amazing Will ,another wonderful video that is definitely helpful ❤
Getting stronger day by day!!!
That's great to hear! I'm pleased my work has been helpful :)
Thank you Will for another set of great exercises fot us seniors
My pleasure!
Thank you. Another awesome workout to add to my exercise routine. 👋🏻 from 67 yo 🇦🇺
Happy I can help!
Excellent video - great to see a set of exercises explained in a simple and practical way. Thanks and well done Will.
Thank you for your feedback I really appreciate it!
So grateful for your focus on us snowbirds! Would like to buy the resistance band set you're using but no link provided (& are they suitable for shorties?!)?
Hi there - here is the link to the bands I recommend that are similar to mine! www.amazon.co.uk/Exercise-Resistance-Strength-Training-Equipment/dp/B078XCK6SF/?th=1
Thank you. I recently switched from Resistance Bands to an Isomectric band which did improve my joint problems a lot. My muscles were doing fine but my joints needed a bit more time and rest.
Liking these upper bod exercises... weak arms/tingling in back of shoulders definitely improving over last two weeks.
Thank you.
(legs getting exercise running round trying to find a low enough doorway for me to do the shoulder stretches in your previous vid... = resulting in a bit of a giggle with the neighbours :)
I'm glad you've got neighbours who can help you in your search!
Hello, Will. New subscriber here. I absolutely love your channel here on TH-cam. I'm slowly going through all your videos, and I've already seen lots and lots of great advice. Stretching exercises, warm up exercises with resistance bands, which exercises to do, which we better not do - as we're already over 50's -, so thank you very much! You're definitely a reference for me, as I'm planning to keep moving while keeping in mind all the safety measures :) Cheers!
Thank you so much for your kind comment and for subscribing - it sounds like you're making a great effort to safely protect your mobility and strength which is fantastic - keep up the great work and I wish you all the best!
Excellent video. I needed this. Thank you so much!
You're more than welcome!
I am so glad I purchased your book. You give so many good ideas and this now is the best!
Thank you for your support I'm so pleased you've found it helpful!
What’s title of the book??
@@sudhirpatil242
It's Thriving Beyond Fifty. I just bought it, it's very good.
So glad I subscribed to your Friday newsletter and got a link to this workout. I will be incorporating this into my weight workout routine. If we do the 2 minute rest after each superset, the rests alone will be 18 minutes, so it will take longer. OR you could just keep going and make them really SUPER sets. However it comes out, this is a great way to use those resistance bands and another great video from Will! Thank you!
So pleased they've been helpful, I'm glad they can factor into your routine! Wishing you all the best :)
How many days per week should these be repeated?
I hit send too soon. Thank you for all your videos. Have been on a watch binge. You are the best!!!
Can this be done every day or should we do it every second to allow the muscles to recover?
I would also like to know how many times a week we should be doing these exercises?
Hi Will: Following from L.A. Many thanks for this full body resistance band workout! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Best wishes to you and your community in the UK and around the world.
You're very welcome - sending many thanks to you in LA!
I am not even close to 50 yet, and I find these exercises extremely valuable. Thank you!
So pleased they're helpful!
Thanks Will I have bands I can start these excersises straight away
That's great to hear!
Thank you Will for your videos. It has been really helpful to me. I am 63 and from Malaysia and I subscribed to your you tube to learn more of your great exercises.
Thank you for subscribing - wishing you all the best!
I wish id known about resistance bands years ago,great fun,portable, quiet,and easy
Thanks for your videos. It's been a "game changer" for me.
I'm so pleased to hear that! I'm wishing you all the best :)
These are pretty much what I’ve ended up doing with bands through trying to replicate dumbbell exercises. I much prefer the gradual increase in resistance of the bands over fixed dumbbell versions. I use the Theraband type bands with no handles that you cut to your desired length. I use a longer cut length and double and triple it up for different exercises. Very easy, light and compact to take away with you when travelling too.
Great tip about taking them away with you when travelling!
@@HT-Physio A skipping/jump rope and a resistance band are always in my travelling kit. They take up hardly any room in a bag, and are both very effective.
As always you are great. I'm slowing following some of your exercises. I know you say Speak to your GP first etc...but that's not as easy as it sounds in today's climate...and not poss for each new exercise! Could you put specific exercises up and say Yep, these are good for blah blah blah but avoid if you have a hernia or hip/back problem...or these are good and safe for hip issues? You get my gist...Cheers.
Thank you for this great set of exercises. This will also be brilliant to do while on holiday 🤩 The rubber bands are easy to take with me.
Great idea! They are very handy for taking on the move!
Thanks Will for this content. I have been advised to do some resistance training, and find your videos very useful. I am just about to start so want to find suitable exercises. One thing I would like to know, what do you recommend to build up my chest muscles, as it seems your routine concentrates on shoulders, arms, back, legs and core.
I absolutely love your channel, always great advice! I have been looking for a good band workout , I have same bands! Thank you so much! Hope you have a great week😊
That's great to hear, I'm pleased they will be getting put to good use! Wishing you a great week also!
all good. thanks. but what about the lifters over 50? Are there band workouts for them to recommend? I guess one needs something more difficult isn't it?
Looking forward to using your workout!
I have to say this is very confusing. This would be very useful if you actually went through the whole workout with us. Telling us what to do and how many in what order doesn’t work because I won’t remember it. You need to actually do the workout in the sets that we are meant to do so we can follow along.
it is quite easy to remember just two of the exercises at time then use the two-minute rest period to play and memorise the next two exercises
Thank you so much ! I did not know how can I use these resistance bands of mine so I can get a decent work out.
Happy to help!
Tired just from doing samples, but later or tomorrow will do 2 reps!!!
Awesome. Thank you!
Nice exercises and good instructions, thanks.
Glad you like them!
What do you recommend as a warm-up for a routine like this?
Just found this video and I’m wondering: what about legs? The squats don’t hit the innner and outer thighs-what about those muscles? And the back muscles? Core? I feel like a lot of muscles are missing so it’s not really “whole body” is it?
Thank you for these videos, this Gen X lady really appreciates you. I got your book as well.
Thank you for your support, I hope you find it interesting!
This looks like a good one. I'm wondering if these can be adapted for dumbbells (while I try to figure out which set of bands to buy!).
THANK YOU!
Thanks for this very useful video. My question is, when doing these exercises, when do I breath in and breath out? Thanks!
Pls take you made video for now legs exercises.. thanks!
I have myositis so I am hoping these exercises will strengthen my muscles. Are they also beneficial for weight loss please?
What weight level to use for these exercises? I recently had a rotator cuff injury and want to rebuild strength.
My set has 20lbs as the lightest resistance band, I am 67 years old, 155cm short and weigh 160lbs
Great video.... You Sound like Brett lee.
Hello great video, I'm 76years old when I stand and use these bands, do I keep my back straight or slightly lower my posture, Phil
First exercise: the band snapped in two and scared the $&@* out of me. This is not the first time one has broken on me.
The first exercise put too much tension on my short bands, so after the breakage, I used two bands: one under each foot.
Would you recommend these exercises every day or a rest day in between?
thank you
You're welcome!
I give chair exercises. What resistance band exercises would be appropriate for us.
Excellent 🎉
Thank you!
May I ask if using resistance band training does it give the same result as gym equipment,we live off grid and nowhere near a gym so wondered if this would help?
Oh yes I just want to build my arms and shoulders
Are these exercises ok for knee ligament tear.
How cani collect yhe band
Thanks so much for this Will. The need to consolidate a program from the previous posts was allowing me to procrastinate 😉. No excuses !
I'm glad I was able to pull it all together for you!
What band weight are you using?
No chest?

👍👏🏿🙏
20 minutes? There's 16 minutes of rest in there already!
Where can I get these bands?
The bands that I have are too short for the squats, any advice on getting the correct ones would be appreciated
I recommend Bodylastics bands. I have used them for years, and they are excellent.

Hi, Will, I love your videos, but (as usual😂) all these exercises that you show with you stepping on the band are very harmful for elderly. Majority of them have decreased spaces between vertebrae. And every exercise increases pressure on spine. When you young and healthy you do not even realize how much this pressure compresses your spine! On every level: cervical or lumbar… But you feel pain right after doing the exercises. And I even do not the problems that majority of elderly are having… Seriously. 😢. Those compressing spine exercises are horrible. You should take in consideration spine changes. Sadly, this video considers only muscle strength.
Too much talking
Turn off the sound then...
Hey Wil I have tried the Band Squat but cannot stretch the bands over my shoulders as you have demonstrated. It seems that I am concerned about pulling the bands beyond their stretch limits.
Great exercises, my only problem was on the first exercise. I am a small man with shoulders like a trout, so the bands kept sliding off my shoulders 😂, ended up crossing the bands behind my back.
Me likes this one 🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏼
That's great to hear!
Which tube bands do you recommend? I’m leaning toward Rogue brand in the U.S.
Great video Will
Thanks so much
Love your book too
