Hi, Lauren, I turned 84 last week and I feel fabulous. I’ve been working out with you for a year now and I’ve lost weight, my belly fat is disappearing and I just enjoy the challenge of trying to complete a workout with you. The stability ball has been the toughest one but I’m getting better. Thank you.
Although I don't comment as much I am here regularly working out with you Lauren. I love everything about your workouts. The music, your voice, your gentle nature, your challenging routines that somehow you make us do it 'easy'. Thank you!
Hello. Well I’m very pleased to have discovered you on TH-cam. I’m 66 and like to do weights a couple of times a week, but every teacher seems manic and loud or thinks we are all 21!! 😆 I so enjoyed your calm and careful approach. Thank you very much. Glynis from Melbourne, Australia
I have only just "met" you, and I thought this workout was fabulous! I love that you don't spend too long giving instructions. You give just enough. I really enjoyed my first workout with you! I had both hips replaced a couple of years ago, but take care. Thank you! I'm 75...🌻
This was so good! 42 yrs old and feel great after this workout🎉 I’m trying to tone and lean out a bit and your channel is perfect. I don’t want an aggressive workout but something that pushes me and still be able to do it again the next day. These slower, more concentrated workouts are perfect. Thanks 💕
Okay ... I see an amazing group of followers below and I hope to be joining the team. I enjoyed the serious repetitions of workouts that were not easy but possible. I will see you again this week ... maybe tomorrow!
Wow don’t know how you come up with all these different routines! Thank you and used the 8 lbs! All the way! Grateful I didn’t do my walk first! Thank you I really enjoy your routines and the challenges to build strength as I am approaching my 75 th ! 🙏🙏🙏Many blessings Lauren 😊
Still with you doing the weekly schedules Lauren. Thank you for another fabulous workout ! You are consistently amazing with all the variety you offer ! So grateful to you 💗
Oh boy, I’m going to feel this tomorrow. Such a great workout. As always, I enjoy how you incorporate moves that aren’t used as often in conventional workouts. ❤❤❤❤
I really enjoyed the workout, as I have enjoyed all of Lauren's workouts, they are all well thought out, effective and very helpful. I completed my weekly plan completely. Thank you so much Lauren! Have a great weekend!❤❤❤❤❤😊
I enjoyed this one, Lauren. Tomorrow I’ll go onto the new week’s playlist; that’s so helpful in giving us variety and mixing in the right amount of weight training with others not involving weights.
I love your workouts! I've been doing them for 2 months consistently. I am not a senior, but I found your channel in search of strength workouts. I started with 5 & 8 lb weights. I am now able to do 15 lb weights with this workout. You're very good at explaining what to do and have proper form. Your workouts are very challenging! Thank you!
I can't believe how fast this workout went. It was so amazing. I really worked up a sweat. Love this workout. I have to say, Lauren, your workouts are THE BEST!!! 🎉🎼🌠🌟🌻
This workout was wonderful. Thank you for the reminders to keep the abs tucked and back straight, and thank you for your calmness and not over talking. So grateful for your workouts.
Love all your total body weight workouts. Thanks for making this more on the challenging side as I am 59 years old and workout often. Please do more strength workouts! Thanks again!
Thank you so much!!! This one was such a great balance of familiarity and new challenges. I’m a 50 year old cancer survivor (now cancer free) and your channel was my go-to during recovery from surgery. That was in early 2021 and I’m delighted to say you are still my go-to now. 😊 I initially started with your Pilates and stretching videos but quickly got deeper into the cardio and strength training workouts as well. You are a wonderful instructor and motivator. Thank you for always keeping things fresh and fun! -Rick
This was so great! I have been using 3 pound weights for my workouts. But today I did this one with 5 pound weights. It was challenging, but I did it! Thanks for creating such great workouts!
This was a really good workout and I got sweaty…😅. I love full body workouts that incorporate everything! My heart rate hit all the zones too…lol. I used 8 and 10 lb weights…great job with this one!!!
Lauren, I tried this video today. Outstanding! I cannot get enough. I have had two knee replacements, 68 years old. They do my knees good! I know that’s not proper grammar but I just want you to know I am so happy to be able to do your workouts. Thank you so much!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💜
Looking forward to this workout. I have been following you since heart surgery just over a year ago and have built up enough strength to challenge myself with these! BTW, I have an Apple Watch and often don't know what workout to choose when monitoring my activity with you. Any suggestions? (or maybe you could put in the notes for each workout in future)
Great to hear! I have an apple watch too. Just go by the workout title. So for this workout, you would set it to "traditional strength training". Hope that helps!
Hi Lauren, I recently turned 60 years old and my body is telling me to slow down with fast and furious strength training. I just found your videos and they are amazing for me !! I love your pace, variety and your workouts are still challenging. Thank you
Whoa. I am humbled. I really had to "do me" and drop to 5 pounds for most of it. I had my quarterly phone check-in with my Accordant Care nurse yesterday who says "Well I know you're so good about exercising, but I always ask, how has your exercise been?" And I'm "uh ... yeah ... what exercise." I've just let things go recently and decided to get back to it yesterday with Pilates and a walk. Today I dialed in for weights and this looked perfect. It is a perfect workout but I'm so deconditioned! A big wakeup call for me. Thank you Lauren. 💙
Girl. You are so gentle and I think I got this and then your inner beast comes out. Great tough workout which is what I needed. Your ease and personality is what makes these workouts enjoyable and doable even these tough ones. Keep it up and never change!!
Hi Lauren, I am a 77 year old female and on February 1, 2024 I made a commitment to myself to begin an exercise program. I set my alarm for 5:15 am, take a cup of coffee back to bed, put on my exercise clothes and join you for the exercise workout for the day. I look forward to your exercise videos and see the results of this commitment to get strong. Thank you so much for this wonderful program- no gym membership and I can exercise comfortably in my own home. I enjoyed this workout, although challenging for me with the 8 lb. weights but I stayed with you. You are an amazing teacher and I am grateful for you.
Wow! Great job! I'm so proud of you and all your new efforts AND the fact that you just started and used 8 pounds! That is amazing. Keep up the awesome work and thank you for your kind words :)
Hi Lauren, I turned 79 on Sunday, and I just started working out with you. This is my third workout, and it was the hardest so far. I started with 1 pound weights on the recommendation of my doctor, which seems very wimpy, but by the end of the workout, I’m glad they’re only 1 pound. I’m looking forward to eventually working my way up to heavier weights and really enjoying working out with you. Thank you.
Hello Lauren. I've been doing your "Strength" Workout by Type. Only have 20 left to do of the 61 sessions. I'm 67 and have never enjoyed working out. My sister turned me on to your channel and I love it! The challenges of the 20-40 min workouts are perfect. I also love your approach in reminding us to keep our core engaged, proud chest, etc. I used 10 lbs for this workout. Keep it coming!
Thank you, Lauren. Im 71 and have been doing your workouts for a while, but this is my first comment. Weights have always been a favorite of mine and this one did not disappoint. Nice challenge with the heavier weights,
Lauren my dear I am tremendously grateful to you for the variety of wonderful videos you give us to tackle any sort of problems we face regarding physical fitness...I am indeed surprised the way you challenge us with new movements but doable for seniors... Every time I turn to your videos..lo..I find a solution 😂 Service you are doing is highly commendable Tq so much again.. for making us flexible and strong
Hi Lauren, I too am 80 years old and I faithfully do your workouts every day except Sunday and I feel just wonderful. Thank you for all the variety that you provide and all the different ways that we can keep fit. Thank you for all your hard work it makes us work harder.
Hi Lauren, I learned yesterday while listening to a health podcast, that seniors should do at least 2 days per week of strength training. I'm 66 and this was a perfect workout. It's challenging but doable.
I couldn't ask for anyone more to my liking to do workouts with! As a 58 year-old, new to weight-training, and overweight, your workouts are so good. I am feeling well challenged, yet enjoy the pleasant commentary from you, (including the reminders to keep the core engaged, tummy tucked, and knees bent, at appropriate moments!Thank-you for those!) I 've worked out with you 2-3 times per week for the last 6 weeks, and it has given me some new energy, and enthusiasm to do other things. I have only tried 4 differnt ones (focusing on strength training), but have liked them all. Thank-you so much, Lauren.
This is one of my favorite strength workouts. I want others to know that your workouts are truly strength building. After 1.5 years of 2 times/week with your workouts, I can now do things that were too hard for me before. It works. It works because you offer challenging, but doable, workouts. I especially appreciate the frequent small reminders about form - it's easy to forget when you are working hard! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I am 59. .. will be 60 very soon .. this was a great pace, well instructed and centered on the exercise not a lot of flash etc. Keeping strength, mobility and balance are my goals. So glad I found your channel. THANK YOU!
Helpful! Recently diagnosed with Osteopenia and threw my back out a couple months ago. Slowly but surely working my way back up. Today I was able to do this entire video with 3 and 5 pound weights. Two months ago I did not go beyond 1 pound. Your videos have been part of a regular playlist as I improve coordination, flexibility and strength. Slow, steady process. Thank you!
❤Ed this video! Your videos are the perfect combination of strength, stretching, balance, and cardio. Love the music choices and your cheerful demeanor. So glad this 60 year old active adult found your site!!
Hi Lauren, I've been using a variety of your workouts and bragging about them to friends & customers at the Medical Equipment company I work for since last May! When I told my nephrologist I was working out with you she screwed up her face. I was so afraid she was going to fuss at me for something but her objection is that it is "Senior" shape. What a great laugh she gave me. At 65 and working at a computer all day, I have no problem admitting to my senior status! I started with 2 pound weights and up to 4 to 8 pounds. Bless you for your work!
That is great Ruth! Thank you for sharing my channel with others, I really appreciate it. Congratulations on your strength gains, I'm so proud of you :)
Great workout -- exactly what I was looking for. I'm 73 and am looking to strengthen my lower back so I can stand for longer periods of time. This is awesome. 10/10, will recommend.
Every new video that I try is a unique, rewarding experience. I especially liked the variety of lifts in this video. It’s not the same old exercises. Thank you.
Hi Lauren, I am really grateful for this video as I'm 60 years old and recovering from a trapeziectomy. With my hand in a cast, then splint for 6 weeks, then with a right hand and fingers that could barely move, I needed an exercise where I could still work the rest of my body, whilst protecting my hand. You always said to make the exercise our way and this was what I did, progressing the size of weight to use with my left and just moving my right arm in tune with the left, but no weight. In this way, and with a calorie controlled diet, I managed to lose 20 pounds and increase my muscle mass. Your video was a godsend, as I can't do floor work (difficult to get down and up with the bad hand) and I'm looking for more standing strength exercises in your videos. If you can recommend one, I'd be grateful. Thanks so much for your wonderful work.
Hi Lauren, I’m 64 and have had 5 surgeries in last 3 years, including both hip replacement,, I am finally feel great and started doing a lot of your workouts about 2 months ago and love them all,, the variety of times,types, weights etc and I’m feeling strongest I’ve felt in so long, the weight slow to come off,, but know I’m stronger and healthier because of your videos!!! Ty ❤
I praise and thank God for all the videos you’re sharing with us. Being a senior, I can pick and choose a video which is very doable for my age. Thank you Lauren for all your hard work putting together these videos. Blessings
This certainly was one of your more challenging classes, Lauren! It’s good that we challenge ourselves as we age! I had to overcome some fear after a knee injury, which I am SO HAPPY to let you know that after 2 years since the injury and after 6 months consistently working out with you five days a week, I have diverted meniscus surgery! I am almost 100% before injury! I alternated between 5lbs and 8lbs❤ thank you doesn’t seem to describe how much I appreciate your channel!!!❤🙏🏼
this is my "go to" workout when I can't decide which one to to. And I'm up to 5 pounds now! I remember when it was ONE pound a few years ago! BTW-I love it when you encourage us to match the breath with the movement. Many thanks also to your family which I am sure are encouraging and supporting you along the way as you help us -your fans-to get and stay strong. And Happy Solstice!🙂
Hi Lauren. I just started your program after some life changing events that got me away from fitness. I absolutely love your workouts and they are easy to pick up and stay with. I plan on doing these to gain muscle and core strength (and some cardio) back in my life. I will be 70 in August.
Thank you!! This may be one of your hardest (it was so far for me😊) but it is gentle and you are so calm. I appreciate the encouragement and soft words.💝
I am 44 years old and I did this as a second workout of the day and I loved it! It’s just challenging enough and it did t hurt my knees!! Thank you for all you do!
At 69 I am new to this great channel. I have shoulder discomfort so will very carefully work up from 3lbs today to higher weights, body permitting (I'm sweating). Really enjoyed how quietly, gently and positively you gave instructions. Great job. I will do more. I love the stability ball routines and those with weights.
Hi Lauren, I'm 63 and I recently discovered your workouts, and I'm really enjoying them. I've always loved strength workouts with dumbbells, and I've added a number of yours to my workout rotation. Keep them coming! You're an awesome instructor!
Good Afternoon. Since today is my day to rest and recover my muscles, I watched this video as I drank some coffee. I fell in love with your format, calmness of presentation, pace, great energy...etc. 🔥💖 You are on tomorrow. Thank you .😊 💜💜💜
Hello Lauren, I just found you today because I know I need to do strength training and at 73 I am not feeling as strong as I was when younger. I did your workout with 5 pound weights and kept up. I see you have a wonderful group of ladies who work out with you and I plan to join you. Thank you for a thorough work out!
Challenging (for me) and great workout! I’m 78 and feel like your workouts are extremely helpful for my balance, strength and general well being. Thank you!
Hi Lauren, I;m 74 and have been doing pilates for 10 years, but have just discovered your workouts, What a great compliment to my regular routine. Definitely needed more cardio and the weight training. I;ve done 4 of your videos and can't thank you enough for this challenging but awesome workout.
Hi😀. I’ve been working out w you for about 6 months. I had gotten lazy and started losing my core strength. I’ll be 71 next month and am once again determined to keep good balance, flexibility and strength. My kids and grandkids are so glad for me to be in pretty good shape. ……. Your smiles and sweet voice are cheerful. Thank you so much!
Really enjoyed this workout, as working with weights is so important. I “did me” by adapting the weights due to ongoing shoulder injury. Thanks, Lauren 🤩
Thank you Lauren! I love the challenge of heavier weights! I am really trying to incorporate heavy weights into my workouts. I can tell I am getting stronger!
Hi, Lauren, I turned 84 last week and I feel fabulous. I’ve been working out with you for a year now and I’ve lost weight, my belly fat is disappearing and I just enjoy the challenge of trying to complete a workout with you. The stability ball has been the toughest one but I’m getting better. Thank you.
Hilary, I am SO impressed! You are my inspiration.
Amazing Hilary! Keep up the great work, I'm so proud of you :)
You are DEFINITELY INSPIRING to us all!
I am so motivated by you! Good for you, keep up the great work on yourself. 🫂
Awesome 🎉well done this was a tough one
Good morning, I'm 74 and just found you and am thrilled, you have me such a great workout. I was able to keep up. Thank you dear. See you tomorrow.
You are so welcome! Happy to have you working out with me Jill 🤩
Love this added challenge with the heavier weights, Lauren. You are an amazing teacher and so grateful for you.
I appreciate that Barbara! I am grateful for great viewers like you :)
Thanks. Great. I’m 81 years
I just finished this for the first time and I am sweating! Haha. I loved it. Doable but a challenge for this 75 year old!
Great job! Glad you love it and got a good workout :)
Although I don't comment as much I am here regularly working out with you Lauren. I love everything about your workouts. The music, your voice, your gentle nature, your challenging routines that somehow you make us do it 'easy'. Thank you!

Ditto! :)
Hello. Well I’m very pleased to have discovered you on TH-cam. I’m 66 and like to do weights a couple of times a week, but every teacher seems manic and loud or thinks we are all 21!! 😆 I so enjoyed your calm and careful approach. Thank you very much. Glynis from Melbourne, Australia
lol! I agree and that’s one of the reasons I started this channel! Happy to have you working out with me Glynis 🤩
I have only just "met" you, and I thought this workout was fabulous! I love that you don't spend too long giving instructions. You give just enough. I really enjoyed my first workout with you! I had both hips replaced a couple of years ago, but take care. Thank you! I'm 75...🌻

I'm so happy you are enjoying my workouts Kelli! Your comment is exactly what I was hoping for when I created this channel :)
Me too , if it's too much I will give up because of trying to fit workouts in with kids, work etc there is little time and energy 😅
Okay ... I see an amazing group of followers below and I hope to be joining the team. I enjoyed the serious repetitions of workouts that were not easy but possible. I will see you again this week ... maybe tomorrow!
Wonderful! Happy to have you working out with me 🤩
Wow don’t know how you come up with all these different routines! Thank you and used the 8 lbs! All the way! Grateful I didn’t do my walk first! Thank you I really enjoy your routines and the challenges to build strength as I am approaching my 75 th ! 🙏🙏🙏Many blessings Lauren 😊

Great! Happy to hear you love it and got a good workout :)
Just when I think I found my new favorite workout, another favorite comes along! Thinking I want to make it a goal to try each and every one ❤
That's a fun and achievable goal Karen!!
Love all your total body weight workouts. Thanks for making this more on the challenging side as I am 59 years old and workout often. Please do more strength workouts! Thanks again!
Thanks Shyleen! I'm so glad it's a good workout for you :)

Wonderful Myrna! Thank you so much for your kind words, I'm thrilled you are enjoying my workouts! Keep up the great work :)
Love this added challenge with the heavier weights, Lauren. You are an amazing teacher and so grateful for you.
Thank you so much! I'm thrilled you love it :)
This is one of my favorite strength workouts. I want others to know that your workouts are truly strength building. After 1.5 years of 2 times/week with your workouts, I can now do things that were too hard for me before. It works. It works because you offer challenging, but doable, workouts. I especially appreciate the frequent small reminders about form - it's easy to forget when you are working hard! Thanks!
Great to hear that you are stronger Beth! You are most welcome and thanks for your kind words :)
Thank you so much! I am 59. .. will be 60 very soon .. this was a great pace, well instructed and centered on the exercise not a lot of flash etc. Keeping strength, mobility and balance are my goals. So glad I found your channel. THANK YOU!
Great Chris! I'm so glad you found me too :)
I LOVE your exercises. This one is one of the best. I feel stronger after doing this exercise. I am 61. So grateful to you. Thank you Lauren.
You're so welcome! Thanks Zahra :)
Helpful! Recently diagnosed with Osteopenia and threw my back out a couple months ago. Slowly but surely working my way back up. Today I was able to do this entire video with 3 and 5 pound weights. Two months ago I did not go beyond 1 pound. Your videos have been part of a regular playlist as I improve coordination, flexibility and strength. Slow, steady process. Thank you!
wow! Good for you! Keep up the great work :)
❤Ed this video! Your videos are the perfect combination of strength, stretching, balance, and cardio. Love the music choices and your cheerful demeanor. So glad this 60 year old active adult found your site!!
I'm so glad you found me too! Thank you for your kind words :)
Just turned 90 - completed my first class with you- very pleased to have made it through
Thank you for being easy to follow and so enjoyable to watch
Fantastic! Great job Sandi, I'm so impressed :)
Another day ... another stretch work out with Lauren ... Thank you!!!
Great! You're welcome Randy :)
Hi Lauren, I've been using a variety of your workouts and bragging about them to friends & customers at the Medical Equipment company I work for since last May! When I told my nephrologist I was working out with you she screwed up her face. I was so afraid she was going to fuss at me for something but her objection is that it is "Senior" shape. What a great laugh she gave me. At 65 and working at a computer all day, I have no problem admitting to my senior status! I started with 2 pound weights and up to 4 to 8 pounds. Bless you for your work!
That is great Ruth! Thank you for sharing my channel with others, I really appreciate it. Congratulations on your strength gains, I'm so proud of you :)
Great workout -- exactly what I was looking for. I'm 73 and am looking to strengthen my lower back so I can stand for longer periods of time. This is awesome. 10/10, will recommend.
Wonderful! So glad to hear it's a good workout for you Mary :)
Every new video that I try is a unique, rewarding experience. I especially liked the variety of lifts in this video. It’s not the same old exercises. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it Virginia! You are most welcome :)
Love standing strength training workouts like this one! A little more challenging would be good.
Great! You can always do a second set and/or increase your weights to make it more challenging 🙌🏻
Hi Lauren, I am really grateful for this video as I'm 60 years old and recovering from a trapeziectomy. With my hand in a cast, then splint for 6 weeks, then with a right hand and fingers that could barely move, I needed an exercise where I could still work the rest of my body, whilst protecting my hand. You always said to make the exercise our way and this was what I did, progressing the size of weight to use with my left and just moving my right arm in tune with the left, but no weight. In this way, and with a calorie controlled diet, I managed to lose 20 pounds and increase my muscle mass.
Your video was a godsend, as I can't do floor work (difficult to get down and up with the bad hand) and I'm looking for more standing strength exercises in your videos. If you can recommend one, I'd be grateful. Thanks so much for your wonderful work.
wow! I'm so proud of you Jenny! I have many more standing strength videos. Here is a newer one: th-cam.com/video/FQ2zw-vPj6c/w-d-xo.html
I love all of your workouts, so glad I found your channel.
Thanks so much Rebecca 🙌🏻
Fantastic, starting to feel stronger. Thanks Lauren xx❤
Awesome! Happy to hear it Sue 🤩🙌🏻
Hi Lauren, I’m 64 and have had 5 surgeries in last 3 years, including both hip replacement,, I am finally feel great and started doing a lot of your workouts about 2 months ago and love them all,, the variety of times,types, weights etc and I’m feeling strongest I’ve felt in so long, the weight slow to come off,, but know I’m stronger and healthier because of your videos!!! Ty ❤
Wonderful! Keep up the great work Brenda, I'm happy to have you working out with me :)
I praise and thank God for all the videos you’re sharing with us. Being a senior, I can pick and choose a video which is very doable for my age. Thank you Lauren for all your hard work putting together these videos. Blessings
You are most welcome Rosario :) I'm thrilled that you are enjoying my videos :)
This certainly was one of your more challenging classes, Lauren! It’s good that we challenge ourselves as we age! I had to overcome some fear after a knee injury, which I am SO HAPPY to let you know that after 2 years since the injury and after 6 months consistently working out with you five days a week, I have diverted meniscus surgery! I am almost 100% before injury! I alternated between 5lbs and 8lbs❤ thank you doesn’t seem to describe how much I appreciate your channel!!!❤🙏🏼
woo hoo! That's amazing to hear Rose! I'm so proud of you and all your hard work :)
this is my "go to" workout when I can't decide which one to to. And I'm up to 5 pounds now! I remember when it was ONE pound a few years ago! BTW-I love it when you encourage us to match the breath with the movement.
Many thanks also to your family which I am sure are encouraging and supporting you along the way as you help us -your fans-to get and stay strong. And Happy Solstice!🙂
Wow! That’s awesome!!! So proud of you and thank you for your kind words.
Keep an eye out for Monday’s new workout, I think you will like it 🤩
Thanks Madam for your strength training exercises, I am doing this for last 3 months ,it's helping a lot
Glad to hear that 🤩🙌🏻
Hi Lauren. I just started your program after some life changing events that got me away from fitness. I absolutely love your workouts and they are easy to pick up and stay with. I plan on doing these to gain muscle and core strength (and some cardio) back in my life. I will be 70 in August.
Awesome! Thank you Pat. I'm happy to have you working out with me :)
Hi Lauren, I really enjoy working out with you. You are an excellent coach! Thank you so much for giving us such good exercises,!
My pleasure Laura, I appreciate you working out with me :)
Thank you!! This may be one of your hardest (it was so far for me😊) but it is gentle and you are so calm. I appreciate the encouragement and soft words.💝
You are so welcome! Thank you for you kind words Donna :)
I am 44 years old and I did this as a second workout of the day and I loved it! It’s just challenging enough and it did t hurt my knees!! Thank you for all you do!
Awesome! You are most welcome Gwynn :)
Harmony, grace, charm with strenght building. What a combination! My legs are still trembling, who cares. Thank you so much! Marta😀
You're so welcome! I’m thrilled you like it and got a good workout Marta 🤩
At 69 I am new to this great channel. I have shoulder discomfort so will very carefully work up from 3lbs today to higher weights, body permitting (I'm sweating). Really enjoyed how quietly, gently and positively you gave instructions. Great job. I will do more. I love the stability ball routines and those with weights.
Wonderful! I’m so glad you found my channel 🤩
Hi Lauren, I'm 63 and I recently discovered your workouts, and I'm really enjoying them. I've always loved strength workouts with dumbbells, and I've added a number of yours to my workout rotation. Keep them coming! You're an awesome instructor!
Great Hellen! Thanks for working out with me :)
Good Afternoon. Since today is my day to rest and recover my muscles, I watched this video as I drank some coffee. I fell in love with your format, calmness of presentation, pace, great energy...etc. 🔥💖 You are on tomorrow. Thank you .😊
💜💜💜
Awesome! I'm glad you are looking forward to it.
Hello Lauren, I just found you today because I know I need to do strength training and at 73 I am not feeling as strong as I was when younger. I did your workout with 5 pound weights and kept up. I see you have a wonderful group of ladies who work out with you and I plan to join you. Thank you for a thorough work out!
Good for you Laura! Happy to have you working out with me 🤩
Wow! Thank you! You were recommended and I am so thankful. I feel great. This is so achievable for a 73 senior beginner like me.
Great! I'm thrilled it's a good workout for you :)
Challenging (for me) and great workout! I’m 78 and feel like your workouts are extremely helpful for my balance, strength and general well being. Thank you!
Wonderful! So glad you got a good workout Phyllis :)
Loved it!
Yay! Thanks Lisa :)
🙏Master, TAB 73 & AB 7 completed. SIT-UPS round is a challenging workout. 👍
I love your workouts Lauren, do one every day. Thank you!!
You're so welcome! Thank YOU Janice 🤩
Love these work out moments of strength training, just right for me. Thank you and God Bless you.
You're so welcome! I'm glad it's a good workout for you :)
Thank you so much. It feels great to get a hard workout in without going fast and furious! Love your calm and quiet, yet effective workouts!!!!
Thanks Amy, I appreciate that!!
movements rich in variety, effective, challenging, sweating, wonderful. Thank you so much. I feel this will really help build muscles. I loved it.
Great to hear Anita, thank YOU :)
Hi Lauren, I;m 74 and have been doing pilates for 10 years, but have just discovered your workouts, What a great compliment to my regular routine. Definitely needed more cardio and the weight training. I;ve done 4 of your videos and can't thank you enough for this challenging but awesome workout.
Wonderful! I’m so glad my workouts are a good fit for you Gail! Keep up the great work 🙌🏻
Lauren, you are such a professional, it's a pleasure to work with you to keep myself strong.
I appreciate that, thank you :)
Hi😀. I’ve been working out w you for about 6 months. I had gotten lazy and started losing my core strength. I’ll be 71 next month and am once again determined to keep good balance, flexibility and strength. My kids and grandkids are so glad for me to be in pretty good shape. ……. Your smiles and sweet voice are cheerful. Thank you so much!
You are most welcome Brenda! Thank you for your kind words and I'm so happy that you are working out with me :)
Hello, I am a 61 year old senior. I love your workouts. They are very forcing to me. I will go on training with you. Thank you!
You're so welcome! I'm thrilled you love my workouts :)
Really enjoyed this workout, as working with weights is so important. I “did me” by adapting the weights due to ongoing shoulder injury. Thanks, Lauren 🤩
You're very welcome! so glad you enjoyed it :)
Thank you Lauren! I love the challenge of heavier weights! I am really trying to incorporate heavy weights into my workouts. I can tell I am getting stronger!
Wonderful! That is so great to hear Natalie :)
I'm so happy your channel has so many followers! You are my favorite!! Thanks for your time and effort❤
I appreciate that Julie, thank you :)
Just progressed back into 8 lb. strength training. This was challenging and amazing! Thank you, Lauren!
Wonderful! Good for you Jackie ;)
