Mike I am going to make you laugh , today my hubby had an eye appt and I usually go with him as sometimes gets his eyes dialated, so because our eye Dr is still following Covid safety, and only the assigned patient is allowed to go in and all others stay outside, today I knew his appt was at least an hour I did this 25 min sit down exercise outside where there were park benches all over for people to sit, Here in Florida it’s hot but has a lot of shady treed areas to relax while waiting for your loved one. I turned on the volume on my I pad and made so many friends while waiting , it was so much fun And was asked what am I doing , I replied I’m doing a more life health with Mike workout for seniors, then one lady said you can not possibly be a senior , I said oh yes I am will be 73 on Sunday, they wrote down the website name. It felt good to not just sit and said but actually exercise my legs, arms and knees .
Thank you Mike (:
Love your chair videos. Am 76 and cannot stand without my walker and you do such a great job with these chair exercises. Thank you so much!!!
I am back here today. It's really good that you have made so many different videos for seated exercises. ❤
I am so pleased I have found this, it is just like the Stting Pilates I used to do. Now when all the groups are cancelled, it is just what I need. Will have to pass this on to other people. THANK You.
Great to hear Angela and you're welcome! :)
I've just started the seated exercises for seniors and I'm really excited about it - will do it each day until I can master it all. Thanks so much Mike, this is going to be brilliant!
Very well balanced program, great for seniors and anyone with limited mobility. Been off your game, this will ease you back in. Well demonstrated and focused.
Really spectacular Mike. My wife does this daily - and has very much improved w/strength and coordination. Thanks!

Mike! when I started doing your exercise videos, I was unable to run up a flight of stairs. I could only get about half-way when I had to start plodding. Last week I ran up the stairs after a child, and made it all the way to the top! Thank you.
I've been doing your workouts for about 6 weeks.
Great exercises. I follow you often
Thanks for that workout it's just what was needed :)
You're welcome Rob!
I've also started this one and really enjoy it ... though as I am short I do find some of the seated exercises a little challenging as I cannot touch the floor 😃

Wonderful work out I am stiffer than a girder. And yet I feel so much better and flexible after the 26 minutes so thank you
Great to hear Anna! :) Make sure you keep it all up!
Thank you , Thank you , This was a great workout for my grandmother. It got the whole family doing it. We had smiles and a good feeling at the end of it. We found the number and arm part to be tricky but we had good fun trying to do it. My grandmother suggested that if you slow down the counting a little more she may be able to keep up. We will definitely watch this again. Looking forward to more.
Amazing to hear!! Make sure your grandmother keeps it up and when she does it won't be long before she is able to keep up :) - Mike :)

were really challenging! Thanks Mike for making my "every day" great.

Thanks Surendra! Glad you like them! :)
I try for one hour exercise each morning, starting with breathing exercises. (You don’t have them?). Found this one today. Thank you. I can do them all, although the balance exercise was a challenge. Again thank you.
Hey Stanley. You're welcome! I don't have breathing exercises at this stage, But this has been requested before a few times, so I have added it to my list. Great work with the exercises! Keep up the great work
Thanks
72@done!!!!l❤Mike I was diagnosed with diabetes got motivated loss 9 lb I followed you every other day😂thanks
Excellent I really enjoy thank you so very much 👌❤️🌺🌷🍀🍀🥀🥀💐😂😂❤️❤️
My pleasure Homa! Glad you enjoyed the exercises!
Went through this video again and added some weights, it was an excellent workout. I do find the toe raises a challenge though :) Jan
Hey Jan. Fantastic effort going through the exercises again and adding weights! Keep working hard and the exercises you're finding challenging will become much simpler :)
Just discovered this .I had neck surgery about 2 yrs ago hit a plateau. I did PT for a year but didn't progress much . I am going to try this workout and hope it helps with strength and movement. I need something to follow along with to keep up a daily workout. The list on paper just wasn't working for me.3-27 one month , only missed 3 days,seeing very tiny bits of improvement . Not something anyone else would notice but I do.
I hope you find the exercises helpful. Keep me updated :)
I enjoyed very much you are very helpful for me I tried some more people it wasn’t it wasn’t the one you do it please can you send me some more exercise for shoulder and knee and hand many thanks Meg God bless you
Hey Manijeh. You can find all exercises categorised here: morelifehealth.com/seniors-exercises
This came at the right time..I ordered a stationary bike but it has been delayed(twice) When I do get my bike I will do these everyday along with it.
Great to hear Sybil! All the best!
Just came across this video! Great workout for seated! Thanks! Got a question, does crossing your legs have a bad affect if have sciatica? Thanks in advance. Been doing many of your other video's!!!!!!
Another wheelchair friendly one Mike. Just wish you didn't give numbers for reaction exercise 😅 just left and right would suit me.
Ty
