Hi Schellea I just wanted to let you know this video changed my workout routine for the better! I was exercising everyday and could never tone my arms which drove me crazy ... but since finding your videos and following your suggestions I have been seeing and feeling results - so now I feel more confident wearing sleeveless tops! Thank you again for your great website I really am enjoying the information and love your genuine personality which is very refreshing!!!
Hi Lesley and a warm welcome to fabulous50s! I'm happy you are here...That's so great to hear...Wow...Good on you...Thank you so much for watching and have a beautiful week 💕
💪You can take a screen shot at 8:48 to get all exercises displayed on one page so you don't have to rewatch the video and just add your favourite music...
Hi again Schellea ! It's been awhile since I've done these exercises , and I have to say , I can feel the burn !! It's great !! I'm glad I came back to this video :)
I'm 29. I just had a baby and gained 40lbs 😵. My arms are so flabby, so I did a quick search and this popped up. I love these moves and am excited to incorporate them in my weighlost/fitness journey (12lbs down so far 1.5 months in!). I just wanted to say that you're beautiful and that your voice and encouragement, especially at the end of the video, was nostalgic for me. It reminded me of Olivia Newton John reminding us to take care of our planet at the end of the children's shows I used to watch (I'm American). She was such a calming presence and you are too! I've got a long life ahead of me as a new mama and I'm excited that I'm making my health a priority again so that I can be here for my family ❤️. Thank you for this video!
I used to be a very active athlete and did shot put so I have large muscles. After a serious accident and a long time in hospital then sedentary lifestyle I doubled my weight and have a lot of fat covering my muscles. I am almost 71 and want to change my body to be strong and fit again. Thank you for your video. You have encouraged me to get up and get moving again. Bless you.
People that don't want to be targeted by Google for ALL the exercise or aging videos bc they put it in their lineup of watched vids. Perspective. Not everything is negative in the world.
Thank you so much! I have been going to the gym for ages, and have never achieved toned arms. I have been doing your exercise every day, and the results are terrific. OMG, the wrinkled arms have nearly gone. I’m emotional as I write this. I’m so happy I found your video. I can now wear armless and sleeves clothes. BTW I’m 60 +. Ladies, the exercises work.
I just started this workout for my arms! I'm already noticing positive results after only about a week or so! WOWIEEE! Thank you for posting this vid! :)
There is such beauty and encouragement in your honesty!! And you and your son are just absolutely precious!! Thank you so so much for all you do for those of us living out the senior portion of our lives!!
So glad to see someone who has actually lived it explain this and do the right exercises. I didn't have bingo wings - I had wingo wings 😬. At 58 and a loss of 4 stone over 3 years, then Covid 3 times, my skin was scary looking - crepey, lumpy, pale and absolutely disgusting. Weird for someone who was always skinny and fit but menopause and a lost baby destroyed my body. A month ago I went back to the gym. This week I'm actually seeing muscle for the first time in years. That is developing from the exercises you are doing, stretching on the monkey bars and exercise ball and then doing the arm, shoulder and chest presses. It's giving me some inspiration to keep going. It's most noticeable at the front of my arms - just looks like dimples, then hangy in places but I learned that these stretching exercises target the fascia which links all through our body, it's not all about the muscle expansion. Onwards and upwards girls 50 plus - we can do it 💪🤜👍.
Some people have the knack of giving really good info/ thanks your Tops/ my grown son is proud of my changes too I’m 62 so thanks 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥳 Others try to get your attention with pink hair or spandex thank YOU for being so naturally normally beautiful & a MOM 💡
I love your wide variety of videos! While approaching 55, I'm noticing how my body is changing and have decided to get back into exercising. I have always loved weight training and am thoroughly enjoying your videos on strengthening the arms. Thank you for inspiring me to "get back on the horse"!
I am 74 and have let myself get out of shape and you have given me the courage to get back on track!!! I have lost weight now I need to firm up... thankyou so much!
And you getting motivated to start exercising at your age shames me as a good thing motivating me to also get back into shape so I appreciate your comment.
I'm almost 51, I am just beginning. I'm 80lbs overweight, back and knee surgeries took it's toll. I just came across you today and subscribed 🤗 Rock bottom physically but I gotta start somewhere
Hi, Schellea! Thank you so much for Fabulous 50s! It is changing my health and lifestyle journey! It is teaching me doable excercises that I can do in 5, 10, 15 and even 30 minutes, if I choose to do so! I also like the positive information that you give! I also like that you said, these excercise are doable way beyond your 50's! You personfiy excellence inside and out, Schellea! Please continue to help women and men achieve their fitness and health goals, as a life long journey!
You showed up in my feed at just the right time! Literally, to the day😂. I'm 63, have never added routine exercise to my daily routine so I'm starting at square one. It's not easy to find a routine that will take me from the "thinking I really need to regularly move" to challenging my fit self. Scrolling through your video options, I see that you are as focused on beginner sets as you are to serious athletes. I don't know how to thank you except to say that I believe you will change my life!
I just found this, I've just turned 63, someone told me yesterday it was my age but I don't agree, hoping this video will make the difference. Thank you for sharing.
I love your workout videos. I am doing your other arm 10 mins video. I wish you can you do a rutine video including all these exercises you explain in this video. It will be nice because you show a timer, and show the repetitions we need to do to complete our exercises. I love it! I have lost 30lbs so far and I have a long way to go
I started this yesterday as a jump start after slacking off on my strength training and also shared it with my mother who is in her 70s to give her some inspiration to get started back on exercising. She loved the video too. Thank you!
"it's not being skinny, but strong.." You hit it right there Shellea. In less than 2 years, I will be 50, and I'd want to be a woman who can still move flexibly without having muscle cramps and twitching here and there. I joked with my daughters that I need to be strong, in cases of any "apocalyptic" events in the future (haha), I can still climb and run for my dear life... Oh well... 😊 Thank you Shellea, been following your videos, along with the Nitic Oxide Dump exercise. In less than 2 weeks, along with my intermittent fasting, I lost 3 kilos and I can wear my favorite clothes. Who knows how much more I will lose in a couple weeks more Thank you again 😍
I just turned 49, and I always thought the elasticity of my skin was just gone. Seeing your video gives me hope, I can’t wait to start on these exercises. Thank you Fo the inspiration 🙂
I am so thrilled to come across your videos. I feel like my metabolism and fitness level took a nose dive when I turned 50 and I couldn't find a good path forward to get more fit/active. THANK YOU. I started my new workout routine today and this was my first one. Looking forward to all the rest of your videos. Love your energy, your attitude and your encouragement during the workouts!
I loved this! It’s encouraging seeing and hearing about real results and “how to”! You’re such an inspiration to me and,I’m sure,millions of women around the world. Thanks for shining your bright light!
Shelly! Thank you, Thank You! I have been doing an assortment of your videos since 2019 and I just wanted to say I am grateful. At 63 years young I feel strong and healthy! So even if I only have a few minutes in my day, I exercise, because of your videos I have no excuse!!! 💯😇 Wishing you and all your viewers a BLESSED 2024
Great tips. I will add them to my workout which includes alternating day walking, high intensity aerobics and tai chi. I am 70 yrs old, fit and getting fitter every day. Thanks.
You inspired me today! I pulled out my weights and was shocked how little I could do with good form. I’m thin but definitely losing some muscle at 62. My arms “used” to be my glory, hahaha! Thanks for the beautiful video and great tips. You totally rock!
Hi Pamela! Thats awesome you got out the weights...I bet you can get those glorious arms back with a bit of effort! Thanks so much for watching... Have a beautiful week 💕
Recap,strap from front ,up,and back,2.weight 2.5 kg ,up to shoulder level,always 10 x. 3 sets,3.arms up like wings,hands with weight ,hands down ,facing out,externally rotated at wrist joint,lift weight up and down but fix elbow up beside the head,arms back ,then back elbow beside body ,biceps curls.Good luck.
Your such an inspiration . I just turned 62 . and it’s about “high flying” time I work towards my goal weight .thank you for all you do . Your sons adorable . I have a 42 yr old son who’s a runner and is very fit. besides doing this for myself , I want to make him proud of me 🌻🌻🌻
Thank you so much for doing this! I have been motivated to strengthen my muscles and working out my arms after watching you. I want to be strong as I age and not flabby and weak. You’re an inspiration!
Brilliant, Brilliant, brilliant. Thank you. You make it look easier. I know it's hard but your enthusiasm makes me more keen to do these excerises. Thank you for the encouragement.
I've been following you my Army never change baby don't know what to do❤ thank you for everything you do for us thank you for everything you do for us❤
Such excellent tips, thank you. Love that you say if you are lucky enough to have a body that can exercise then start now. I already do but it’s great advice for people who don’t regularly exercise but want to x
35 year old here LOVING your content! Had many months of being bedridden over the last few years....needing gentle but helpful/restorative exercises! 💪✨👊
Hi beautiful Shelly 🙋🏻♀️🏝💖💪🏻 I am loving your videos!!!!! I have always worked out and at 58 I do not like my arms my bat wings. I like the rest of them as they are tone but shy away from sleeveless tops as I am embarrassed. I live in Florida and I am determined to tone my entire arm. I found your videos and I am so thankful for you 😊 God bless you !!!!!
Thank you so much! Finally a workout that “we” can do! I usually give up because they are too tough! You are genius! Always on point with our abilities and appearance.!
Schella, love love your workouts, particularly this one for I was trying to do weight for a few years in the gym but I hated the classes or personal trainings. Now, I love it with you. You are the best !
I am going to be 49 in August, and I have lost alot of weight this past year and a half. I rarely ever wear short sleeves now( much less ever thinking about going sleeveless”). My flabby arms took my confidence level to a new low! Making me self concience about my arms like never before! I am so glad I found your video! I need toning in my arms and legs! Especially since the weight loss! Thank You for giving great instructions that will be not only easy to follow, but inspiring enough that I can see myself doing these at least three days a week! ❤️😊🙏🏻
Iam 55 years old and mg ever in my life were eye shadow while looking for a video on it I stumbled upon your videos and I love them .Thank ypu I will be doing the exercises and make up and watching all your other videos and learning.God bless 💜
This is really helpful. I'm approaching 50 and do pole. However, if I miss a class I can go 2+ weeks and lose all my strength. This is simple enough to commit to between classes and I love the fact that you're not using lots of extra equipment 🌠💖🌠
Thank you for this great video, the best I have seen for working the arms. And thank you so much for stating how many reps. Often they don't, so this is so helpful. Also, thank you for your inspiring comments. I am going to start this right away.
Ive started today and I will follow the routine x 3 per week. I will report progress in 3 months. I need to e exercise because I am losing weight with Noom.
Hi, Schellea, Ten years ago I retired. I am 75 now, and noticed about 5 years ago, I was getting less able to do activity like I used to. I found you on TH-cam. I like how you have the videos separated by type of activity. On this video, you said you felt you could "passout". Many years ago, I was working with a group doing free-weight exercise; our instructor had to remind us to "BREATH", he said he didn't want us passing out on him". We were concentrating on doing the exercises properly, we forget to "breath", what a difference that makes!!!!!!
My bat wings have bat wings, so I thank you SO much for this video. You have no idea how much I appreciate you and how much you inspire me. Your grace, sweet personality, humor and honesty are so needed and so refreshing. This video is now saved to my favorites so I can refer to it over and over and follow along. I've been in physical therapy for the past year and believe I am now strong enough to at least attempt it. Bless you. - xx, Carla from 2 Real Chicks
Hi Lovely Carla! Thank you for such a beautiful comment xx As you saw, my son described me in the same way as your describing your batwings...Harsh 😂 Love your body what ever it looks like because if its becoming strong and healthy you are so blessed...Every day of the week... Thank you so much for watching ....Have a beautiful weekend 💕
just wondering if these exercises for the arms actually worked, would love to hear just a yes or a no will do, I'm just so tired of being let down from so many other people, I know it's been over 3 year's but would really appreciate, just a yes or no or feedback please...
So happy I found you Schellea. A bright spot in the situation we find ourselves in now. I look forward to exercising with you every day and will continue to do so when life returns to "normal". Thanks for all you do. You are so bright and wonderful. You bring so much of your energy and passion to every video and it shows.
This was so very helpful! I have lost a few pounds with WW, and I walk for an hour at least three times a week. However at 62 I have been working on my arms. YOUR VIDEO has really helped me with my form ! Thank you so much! Have a great day!
Hi Schellia, I am wanting to get serious with my fitness. I love your videos and the way you present. I am new to your following, in fact 3 days I have been completing your workouts for belly fat and toning arms. Thank you for your encouragement. I look forward to checking in again in 30 days with you. kind regards
First timer i cant thank you enough i was really embarrassed about my arms i couldn't wear my sleeveless tops i'm looking forward now to seeing a BIG change .
Thank you so much for this video. I’m starting today. I have been so unhappy about my flabby arms and have been giving away all my cute sleeveless tops because of it. I’m in my mid 70’s and otherwise fit.
Good Evening, I just found you while searching for some exercises for seniors to get rid of the bat wings. I can't wait to get started. I am 62 and have lost about 62 lbs in the last year and my arms are so embarrassing. If you have any other suggestions , keep me posted. Thank you for the videos.
Hi Schellea! I have just discovered your You Tube videos and what to say a very big THANK YOU!!! In all the topics I have watched so far, you are very informative, the exercises are achievable, the tutorials on make up for example are very clear. ...but, by far, the thing I take most from you is your positivity! Thank you so very much for making my day!
Absolutely love your channel. Thank you so much, you're wonderful. I'm 63 and starting to struggle. I've always been slim and have tried to look after myself but since turning 60, everything seems to be falling apart. You have inspired me to keep trying (I did stop exercising at 60).....It's so lovely to hear your beautiful Australian accent (I'm Australian too) in a sea of American accents on you tube. You are a breath of fresh air, honest and clear in your directions for these exercises, thank you....keep up the great work.👍👍❤
What a beautiful, inspiring woman you are.... We all need that injection of positivity, and as Selina says below, you are so sincere, it's a gift and we get it. Thank you... so happy to have discovered you and I really look forward to what more I can learn. Blessings, Ava
I love your videos- thank you. But a few ideas- first, it is important to allow the muscles to heal so to do this 5 days a week is not healthy for the muscle. When I worked out I would do upper body one day, lower body next, and a day off. Another concern is that for most people a much lighter weight is needed, or lesser reps to begin.
This is why it is best to watch workout vids made by folk who are physical therapist types and not "at home exercisers"...there are many sound vids here on YT made by trained professionals...
Thank you Shelly for this video...it is filled with no nonsense, let's get to it and Love ourselves. I'm inspired by you!!!! Thanks for being You!!!!♥️♥️👏👏🥰
Thank You! Your end comments were very encouraging. I turn 50 in a couple of months. I choose to see it as the beginning of something new, better, and different...
Thanks so much for watching...its such an exciting time for women to be alive and the best thing is... We don't have to start from the beginning...We are already here! Have a beautiful weekend ❤️
I have just used your walk exercises and thought it was fun and doable so put this on. Amazing! I love the way you present your exercises, you have a very relaxing tone to your voice, you are so encouraging. I am much older that the 50s but find you are helping me THANKYOU
Not sure when this was done, but I love that you hangout with your sons. The whole family, not perfect, is together and healthy. That’s a reason to celebrate! My favorite part, even beyond exercises, oops!, was the last part of the video when your son did the squats in front of camera, so silly, bc I do them like that too! He made me smile. I have two daughters who I love being silly with too! Thank you for sharing what you do, it makes a difference.
What a coincidence! I was just wondering how your arms and shoulders were so incredibly toned in your previous video on belly fat, and,,,ta da!...here's your fabulous video all about how you've achieved it! Well done, you! You are such a generous and sassy lady and I've enjoyed all your vids and look forward to my weekly treat from you. Thank you! I'm now growing aloe and putting it in my water, wearing purple-blue eyeshadow which looks great and doing the Asian squat daily. Love your vid on Attraction, too. This weekend, I'm making your cacao treats. You're such an inspiration and I thank you for such a positive, encouraging and fun channel which gets right to the point. Debbie from London, UK. Xxx
Hi Debbie and a big welcome to fabulous50s! Im so happy you are getting some value from the videos 😁Good luck with the cacao treats, let me know how they go...Thank you so much for watching...I I'm happy you are here.... Have a beautiful week 💕
Yes! I was laughing because your son reminded me so much of mine. He jiggles ad makes fun of my arms constantly. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I will be starting this exercise routine today!
I'm 69 Young and I don't like going to the gyms but I have an exercise bike at home and a glider and then I love working out with all the different movements that Sheila has. She makes things fun easy positive and the surroundings are pretty neat too. The most important thing is to keep moving and don't forget the clothing tips too are really cool.
I notice that my muscles were disappearing around two years ago, despite no change in my exercise or eating habits. Another channel suggested that women our age need to up our protein intake (by adding protein powder) and use more weight-bearing exercise and reduce cardio (which was the bulk of my workouts). I've noticed a big difference.
Hi Laurette! Thank you so much for watching ....I agree with the protein, all trainers I have spoken to say the same...I used Hydrolyzed Collagen twice a day and a protein powder as well...Its so great that you have noticed such a big difference! Have a beautiful weekend 💕
Thanks !! You, too. ps started liquid hyrolaunic acid/collagen recently too. supposed to be good for joints and a few other things.. I have bad knees from sports injuries when I was younger.. has helped a lot. :)
You might try a fresh Chinese Yam. You can get it at Asian grocery stores like Hmart. It naturally boosts collagen and estrogen. It is a big root and the only real yam you can eat raw. I peel it and eat it raw but most people cook it in a soup or something. It is also called Nagaimo yam. Weirdly Korean get collagen from the inside of chicken feet. It is usually in a hot sauce. I watch a lot of kdramas so I've seen that before. Basically eating collagen to make collagen. I swear the chinese yam my neck are get a bit tighter.
Life tobelived thank you for this! Def going to try!! Is this the same thing as the cinnamon-vine? I've seen certain Chinese yams called.that and want to make sure I get the right one. Thanks!
Hi Schellea - what an excellent video! Thank you so much for creating & sharing it with us all. Some positive feedback about what makes your video so excellent.....your clear, specific instruction on working the muscle groups, your communication about what results from working these muscle groups we can expect, your enthusiastic, happy yet calm demeanour, & health/nutrition supporting information. I’ve subscribed to your channel & I’m so looking forward to watching & implementing all of your videos for my workout routine. You have helped me, a 50-something mom & wife, look forward to getting into better shape without any doubts or reluctance. Thank you so very much! 🙏🏻💐
You look like a college girl though! I'm a runner turning 49 coming July, but it is getting more and more challenging to enjoy 7 miles of daily dose of running. Ugh... Your video helps me to stay motivated. Thanks so much!!
Thanks Schellea. You made tricky information much easier to understand, told us what to watch out for and demonstrated how best to implement it. You are a lovely girl by the way 😘 and always kind to us.
Hello again! I just finished doing the flabby arm workout and 10 minute arm workout. I haven't done it in a while because I've been doing other workouts with my senior center instructor, walking, biking, and yardwork. But, I really needed to get back on the stick with these exercises too! I can feel the burn this morning and that's a good thing. Thanks Schellea and have a great day. Cathy
Hi Schellea! I just stumbled across you today! I have to say I am so glad to see you rockin long hair! I love it! I was beginning to slowly wear my hair at a shorter length buuuutttt not anymore!!! I have always loved my long hair even after 50ish :)
Hi Schellea. I know this is an old video, but I'm going through your channel and making a playlist. I've just completed an hour long mixed workout and I feel great ☺️. I'm so proud of you and I for working together ☺️.
Great video. I was able to do 3 sets today. I like your end comments. If we are blessed with a body that can do exercise. So true. 56 and hanging on to every minute! Thumbs up
I just found these workouts and I wanted something to do so that I didn’t get the flabby arms. What I think I loved most about this video is when you said if you have the body to still work out then you should keep moving and I think that’s a blessing🙏🏾. I’m going to do these💪🏾 I’m going to incorporate these 3 to 4 times a week and thank you. I’m 53 and I love the body 🙋🏽♀️I have.
Hi Schellea I just wanted to let you know this video changed my workout routine for the better! I was exercising everyday and could never tone my arms which drove me crazy ... but since finding your videos and following your suggestions I have been seeing and feeling results - so now I feel more confident wearing sleeveless tops!

Hi again Schellea ! It's been awhile since I've done these exercises , and I have to say , I can feel the burn !! It's great !! I'm glad I came back to this video :)
Thank you so much🥰😘I will start today. God bless you and your family 🙏
Thanks for this “tip” of taking a screenshot. I actually took notes but it was not clear compared to the photos 🤭
Great tip, thanks!
Thank you so much!
I'm 29. I just had a baby and gained 40lbs 😵. My arms are so flabby, so I did a quick search and this popped up. I love these moves and am excited to incorporate them in my weighlost/fitness journey (12lbs down so far 1.5 months in!).
I just wanted to say that you're beautiful and that your voice and encouragement, especially at the end of the video, was nostalgic for me. It reminded me of Olivia Newton John reminding us to take care of our planet at the end of the children's shows I used to watch (I'm American). She was such a calming presence and you are too!

you are right, she reminds me of Olivia Newton-John too and that's meant as a big compliment ;)

You go gurlll, I’m 59 and started working out again and feel much better. I hope you continue your journey!
How can anyone give this a thumbs down? Jealousy is so unattractive! Thank you for sharing your tips for success.
Who’s giving her a thunks down? I don’t see and thumbs down how are you imagining that?
Haters r guna hate, 4 a little while longer
the potatoes sitting on the couch give thumbs down. no worries. be happy :)
People that don't want to be targeted by Google for ALL the exercise or aging videos bc they put it in their lineup of watched vids. Perspective. Not everything is negative in the world.

Thank you so much! I have been going to the gym for ages, and have never achieved toned arms. I have been doing your exercise every day, and the results are terrific. OMG, the wrinkled arms have nearly gone. I’m emotional as I write this. I’m so happy I found your video. I can now wear armless and sleeves clothes. BTW I’m 60 +. Ladies, the exercises work.
Carol Fantastic for how long have you been doing this program?
Tine Lucas - about 3 - 4 weeks.
I'm 30 praying this works for me!
Arm wrinkles actually went???
Thank you for your honest review!
I just started this workout for my arms! I'm already noticing positive results after only about a week or so! WOWIEEE! Thank you for posting this vid! :)
There is such beauty and encouragement in your honesty!! And you and your son are just absolutely precious!! Thank you so so much for all you do for those of us living out the senior portion of our lives!!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Renae. Sending you a big hug! 🤗❤️
Love her calm helpful tone,
I know....i swear, she could tell me I needed a lobotomy and I would be like "ok". Everything sounds nicer in an Aussie accent!
Love her So real.
So glad to see someone who has actually lived it explain this and do the right exercises. I didn't have bingo wings - I had wingo wings 😬. At 58 and a loss of 4 stone over 3 years, then Covid 3 times, my skin was scary looking - crepey, lumpy, pale and absolutely disgusting. Weird for someone who was always skinny and fit but menopause and a lost baby destroyed my body. A month ago I went back to the gym. This week I'm actually seeing muscle for the first time in years. That is developing from the exercises you are doing, stretching on the monkey bars and exercise ball and then doing the arm, shoulder and chest presses. It's giving me some inspiration to keep going. It's most noticeable at the front of my arms - just looks like dimples, then hangy in places but I learned that these stretching exercises target the fascia which links all through our body, it's not all about the muscle expansion. Onwards and upwards girls 50 plus - we can do it 💪🤜👍.
Some people have the knack of giving really good info/ thanks your Tops/ my grown son is proud of my changes too I’m 62 so thanks 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥳
Others try to get your attention with pink hair or spandex thank YOU for being so naturally normally beautiful & a MOM 💡
I love your wide variety of videos! While approaching 55, I'm noticing how my body is changing and have decided to get back into exercising. I have always loved weight training and am thoroughly enjoying your videos on strengthening the arms. Thank you for inspiring me to "get back on the horse"!
I am 74 and have let myself get out of shape and you have given me the courage to get back on track!!! I have lost weight now I need to firm up... thankyou so much!
And you getting motivated to start exercising at your age shames me as a good thing motivating me to also get back into shape so I appreciate your comment.
Good luck..I’m doing this too! Hope you stay with it 🎉
I just found your channel and am so excited because I just made a commitment to myself on my 66th birthday to get back in shape. Perfect timing.
Thanks so much for watching casageorgia! Go You!!! Your going to do a great job... Have a beautiful week 💕
You can do it. Love it when people won't let their age hold them.
Same here just turned 60
loved the stretch. made my middle back relax. I think I am going to fire my chiropractor
You can tell when your getting old..Look at there necks..very detailed..sad, but true..♡
I'm almost 51, I am just beginning. I'm 80lbs overweight, back and knee surgeries took it's toll. I just came across you today and subscribed 🤗 Rock bottom physically but I gotta start somewhere
You got this ShawnaRae! The effort you're putting in now is helping you in more ways than you can imagine. 💪🌸
Hi, Schellea! Thank you so much for Fabulous 50s! It is changing my health and lifestyle journey! It is teaching me doable excercises that I can do in 5, 10, 15 and even 30 minutes, if I choose to do so! I also like the positive information that you give! I also like that you said, these excercise are doable way beyond your 50's! You personfiy excellence inside and out, Schellea! Please continue to help women and men achieve their fitness and health goals, as a life long journey!
You showed up in my feed at just the right time! Literally, to the day😂. I'm 63, have never added routine exercise to my daily routine so I'm starting at square one. It's not easy to find a routine that will take me from the "thinking I really need to regularly move" to challenging my fit self. Scrolling through your video options, I see that you are as focused on beginner sets as you are to serious athletes. I don't know how to thank you except to say that I believe you will change my life!
Hello Sherry
I just found this, I've just turned 63, someone told me yesterday it was my age but I don't agree, hoping this video will make the difference. Thank you for sharing.
I love your workout videos. I am doing your other arm 10 mins video. I wish you can you do a rutine video including all these exercises you explain in this video. It will be nice because you show a timer, and show the repetitions we need to do to complete our exercises. I love it! I have lost 30lbs so far and I have a long way to go
I started this yesterday as a jump start after slacking off on my strength training and also shared it with my mother who is in her 70s to give her some inspiration to get started back on exercising. She loved the video too. Thank you!
I was just wondering about that! Am currently living/caring for my Mom, 79.
"it's not being skinny, but strong.."
You hit it right there Shellea. In less than 2 years, I will be 50, and I'd want to be a woman who can still move flexibly without having muscle cramps and twitching here and there. I joked with my daughters that I need to be strong, in cases of any "apocalyptic" events in the future (haha), I can still climb and run for my dear life... Oh well... 😊
Thank you Shellea, been following your videos, along with the Nitic Oxide Dump exercise. In less than 2 weeks, along with my intermittent fasting, I lost 3 kilos and I can wear my favorite clothes. Who knows how much more I will lose in a couple weeks more
Thank you again 😍
Hi Banny Bee ❤️ I loved reading your comment. So proud of you, you're a star⭐💯❤
I just turned 49, and I always thought the elasticity of my skin was just gone. Seeing your video gives me hope, I can’t wait to start on these exercises. Thank you Fo the inspiration 🙂
I am so thrilled to come across your videos. I feel like my metabolism and fitness level took a nose dive when I turned 50 and I couldn't find a good path forward to get more fit/active. THANK YOU. I started my new workout routine today and this was my first one. Looking forward to all the rest of your videos. Love your energy, your attitude and your encouragement during the workouts!
I'm not 50 but this video is helping me tone my flabby arms !!! Thank you! Love your channel!!!

Hi Marina! Thanks so much for watching and leaving this lovely comment...Have an amazing week 💕
Brilliant, Brilliant, brilliant. Thank you. You make it look easier. I know it's hard but your enthusiasm makes me more keen to do these excerises. Thank you for the encouragement.

Hi Shannon Allen! Thanks so much for watching...Have a great day 💕
Shannon Allen Lane
35 year old here LOVING your content! Had many months of being bedridden over the last few years....needing gentle but helpful/restorative exercises! 💪✨👊
Hi beautiful Shelly 🙋🏻♀️🏝💖💪🏻 I am loving your videos!!!!! I have always worked out and at 58 I do not like my arms my bat wings. I like the rest of them as they are tone but shy away from sleeveless tops as I am embarrassed. I live in Florida and I am determined to tone my entire arm. I found your videos and I am so thankful for you 😊 God bless you !!!!!
Thank you so much! Finally a workout that “we” can do! I usually give up because they are too tough!
You are genius! Always on point with our abilities and appearance.!
Hello Judy
Schella, love love your workouts, particularly this one for I was trying to do weight for a few years in the gym but I hated the classes or personal trainings. Now, I love it with you. You are the best !
Thank you for encouraging us women over 50 with your words and the exercises. You got me motivated, Schellea! 🤗
Hi Doris O'Donnell! Thanks so much for watching...Stay fabulous 💕
Hi Doris
I am going to be 49 in August, and I have lost alot of weight this past year and a half. I rarely ever wear short sleeves now( much less ever thinking about going sleeveless”). My flabby arms took my confidence level to a new low! Making me self concience about my arms like never before!
I am so glad I found your video! I need toning in my arms and legs! Especially since the weight loss! Thank You for giving great instructions that will be not only easy to follow, but inspiring enough that I can see myself doing these at least three days a week! ❤️😊🙏🏻
Iam 55 years old and mg ever in my life were eye shadow while looking for a video on it I stumbled upon your videos and I love them .Thank ypu I will be doing the exercises and make up and watching all your other videos and learning.God bless 💜
This is really helpful. I'm approaching 50 and do pole. However, if I miss a class I can go 2+ weeks and lose all my strength. This is simple enough to commit to between classes and I love the fact that you're not using lots of extra equipment 🌠💖🌠
Hi Chrissy! Go you...it takes mega strength to do pole! Thanks so much for watching... Have a beautiful week 💕
Thank you for this great video, the best I have seen for working the arms. And thank you so much for stating how many reps. Often they don't, so this is so helpful. Also, thank you for your inspiring comments. I am going to start this right away.
Thank you for your comments Pam Mross! Stay strong and fabulous 💪
Ive started today and I will follow the routine x 3 per week. I will report progress in 3 months. I need to e exercise because I am losing weight with Noom.
Me too I to start tomorrow Strong ....💪
Hi, Schellea,
Ten years ago I retired. I am 75 now, and noticed about 5 years ago, I was getting less able to do activity like I used to. I found you on TH-cam. I like how you have the videos separated by type of activity. On this video, you said you felt you could "passout". Many years ago, I was working with a group doing free-weight exercise; our instructor had to remind us to "BREATH", he said he didn't want us passing out on him". We were concentrating on doing the exercises properly, we forget to "breath", what a difference that makes!!!!!!
This is a great workout for your arms. It isn't too hard nor does it take too long. I love how she explains things & is very encouraging.
My bat wings have bat wings, so I thank you SO much for this video. You have no idea how much I appreciate you and how much you inspire me. Your grace, sweet personality, humor and honesty are so needed and so refreshing. This video is now saved to my favorites so I can refer to it over and over and follow along. I've been in physical therapy for the past year and believe I am now strong enough to at least attempt it. Bless you. - xx, Carla from 2 Real Chicks
Hi Lovely Carla! Thank you for such a beautiful comment xx As you saw, my son described me in the same way as your describing your batwings...Harsh 😂 Love your body what ever it looks like because if its becoming strong and healthy you are so blessed...Every day of the week... Thank you so much for watching ....Have a beautiful weekend 💕
Real Chicks TV n
Real Chicks TV ... it’s been a year since you commented, are the bat wings gone? I just started her workout and hoping they diminish fast!
just wondering if these exercises for the arms actually worked, would love to hear just a yes or a no will do, I'm just so tired of being let down from so many other people, I know it's been over 3 year's but would really appreciate, just a yes or no or feedback please...
I just started watching your videos and I love them. You are a beautiful and very encouraging woman, thank you
Hi Michele! Thanks so much for watching and your kind comments. A big welcome to the channel and I hope you have an awesome week. 👍
SHe is wonderful :-)
Love your videos. Glad I bumped into it. Thank you so much. Keep making videos for above 50!💋
Hi Rashidah! Thanks so much for watching...Have a beautiful week 💕
So happy I found you Schellea. A bright spot in the situation we find ourselves in now. I look forward to exercising with you every day and will continue to do so when life returns to "normal". Thanks for all you do. You are so bright and wonderful. You bring so much of your energy and passion to every video and it shows.
Hi Toni Guziec! Thanks so much for your lovely comment... Have an amazing week 💕
This was so very helpful! I have lost a few pounds with WW, and I walk for an hour at least three times a week. However at 62 I have been working on my arms. YOUR VIDEO has really helped me with my form ! Thank you so much! Have a great day!
Thumbs up for the arm workout tips. I'm not in my 50s yet, but this video was exactly what I was looking for! :)
Hi Schellia, I am wanting to get serious with my fitness. I love your videos and the way you present. I am new to your following, in fact 3 days I have been completing your workouts for belly fat and toning arms. Thank you for your encouragement. I look forward to checking in again in 30 days with you. kind regards
Stay strong and fabulous Joan Williamson 💪Thanks so much for watching and have a beautiful week 💕
I'm not a female and I'm not over 50 "yet" but I do have those flabby back arms so I'm watching and listening.
I should try too
I started doing these yesterday, Will check in and let you know my results. Thanks So much!
First timer i cant thank you enough i was really embarrassed about my arms i couldn't wear my sleeveless tops i'm looking forward now to seeing a BIG change .
Thank you so much for this video. I’m starting today. I have been so unhappy about my flabby arms and have been giving away all my cute sleeveless tops because of it.
I’m in my mid 70’s and otherwise fit.
Stay strong and fabulous Vicki Pincolini 💪
Hello Vicki
Really enjoying I'm now in my sixties but I've been very active all my life Thanks from Ireland😉
Sending you a big hug from Australia Carole Braidner 🤗
Good Evening, I just found you while searching for some exercises for seniors to get rid of the bat wings. I can't wait to get started. I am 62 and have lost about 62 lbs in the last year and my arms are so embarrassing. If you have any other suggestions , keep me posted. Thank you for the videos.
You're a star Terry! Awesome work releasing those pounds. Keep working your arms and it will make a difference for sure. Stay strong and fabulous 💪
Hi Terry
Hi Schellea! I have just discovered your You Tube videos and what to say a very big THANK YOU!!! In all the topics I have watched so far, you are very informative, the exercises are achievable, the tutorials on make up for example are very clear. ...but, by far, the thing I take most from you is your positivity! Thank you so very much for making my day!
Hi Marg Wood! Thanks so much for your lovely comment... Have an amazing week 💕
Absolutely love your channel. Thank you so much, you're wonderful. I'm 63 and starting to struggle. I've always been slim and have tried to look after myself but since turning 60, everything seems to be falling apart. You have inspired me to keep trying (I did stop exercising at 60).....It's so lovely to hear your beautiful Australian accent (I'm Australian too) in a sea of American accents on you tube. You are a breath of fresh air, honest and clear in your directions for these exercises, thank you....keep up the great work.👍👍❤
What a beautiful, inspiring woman you are.... We all need that injection of positivity, and as Selina says below, you are so sincere, it's a gift and we get it. Thank you... so happy to have discovered you and I really look forward to what more I can learn. Blessings, Ava
Hi Ava and a big welcome to fabulous50s! Thanks so much for watching and I really appreciate your lovely commnet ... Have a beautiful week 💕
Hi Schellea like this workout, but I’m too weak to do 4kg so I did it with 3kg hopefully my strength will build as I continue
You use the weight u can or have them asylum get stronger you can move up to stronger weights! Good luck
I love your videos- thank you. But a few ideas- first, it is important to allow the muscles to heal so to do this 5 days a week is not healthy for the muscle. When I worked out I would do upper body one day, lower body next, and a day off. Another concern is that for most people a much lighter weight is needed, or lesser reps to begin.
This is why it is best to watch workout vids made by folk who are physical therapist types and not "at home exercisers"...there are many sound vids here on YT made by trained professionals...
Yes! Strong and flexible should be our goal in our 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond! Thank you!
Thank you Shelly for this video...it is filled with no nonsense, let's get to it and Love ourselves. I'm inspired by you!!!! Thanks for being You!!!!♥️♥️👏👏🥰
My new BFF TH-camr who reminds me of Olivia Newton-John😉 so beautiful! thank you for the instructional video 👍
Omg ya she does look like her. Beautiful. I just found her as well.
Let's get physical (Olivia Newton-John old exercise MTV video?)
Yes and a blonde Lynda Carter.
thats funny...I was totally thinking the same thing!
I thought young Ann-Margaret
I appreciate you so much! You are amazing! God bless you and your family!
Thanks Libby Riggin! Have a fabulous day 🌸
Thank You! Your end comments were very encouraging. I turn 50 in a couple of months. I choose to see it as the beginning of something new, better, and different...
Thanks so much for watching...its such an exciting time for women to be alive and the best thing is... We don't have to start from the beginning...We are already here! Have a beautiful weekend ❤️
fabulous50s You are welcome. You also.
🌸
I have just used your walk exercises and thought it was fun and doable so put this on. Amazing! I love the way you present your exercises, you have a very relaxing tone to your voice, you are so encouraging. I am much older that the 50s but find you are helping me THANKYOU
Not sure when this was done, but I love that you hangout with your sons. The whole family, not perfect, is together and healthy. That’s a reason to celebrate! My favorite part, even beyond exercises, oops!, was the last part of the video when your son did the squats in front of camera, so silly, bc I do them like that too! He made me smile. I have two daughters who I love being silly with too! Thank you for sharing what you do, it makes a difference.
What a coincidence! I was just wondering how your arms and shoulders were so incredibly toned in your previous video on belly fat, and,,,ta da!...here's your fabulous video all about how you've achieved it! Well done, you! You are such a generous and sassy lady and I've enjoyed all your vids and look forward to my weekly treat from you. Thank you! I'm now growing aloe and putting it in my water, wearing purple-blue eyeshadow which looks great and doing the Asian squat daily. Love your vid on Attraction, too. This weekend, I'm making your cacao treats. You're such an inspiration and I thank you for such a positive, encouraging and fun channel which gets right to the point. Debbie from London, UK. Xxx
Hi Debbie and a big welcome to fabulous50s! Im so happy you are getting some value from the videos 😁Good luck with the cacao treats, let me know how they go...Thank you so much for watching...I I'm happy you are here.... Have a beautiful week 💕
Yes! I was laughing because your son reminded me so much of mine. He jiggles ad makes fun of my arms constantly. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I will be starting this exercise routine today!
These are the most enjoyable “fitness and “videos around.
Hi Melissa’s Mosaics & Decoupage Art! I'm happy you enjoy the videos ..Have an amazing day 🤗
Wow. I'm 62. Had shoulder surgery a year ago. BUT I'm determined to get my toned arms again! Ouch but a good ouch! Thank u! I'm excited!
I work out with her most every day and I love the music too it's different than some of our music workouts truly fun
I'm 69 Young and I don't like going to the gyms but I have an exercise bike at home and a glider and then I love working out with all the different movements that Sheila has. She makes things fun easy positive and the surroundings are pretty neat too. The most important thing is to keep moving and don't forget the clothing tips too are really cool.
I notice that my muscles were disappearing around two years ago, despite no change in my exercise or eating habits. Another channel suggested that women our age need to up our protein intake (by adding protein powder) and use more weight-bearing exercise and reduce cardio (which was the bulk of my workouts). I've noticed a big difference.
Hi Laurette! Thank you so much for watching ....I agree with the protein, all trainers I have spoken to say the same...I used Hydrolyzed Collagen twice a day and a protein powder as well...Its so great that you have noticed such a big difference! Have a beautiful weekend 💕
Thanks !! You, too. ps started liquid hyrolaunic acid/collagen recently too. supposed to be good for joints and a few other things.. I have bad knees from sports injuries when I was younger.. has helped a lot. :)
You might try a fresh Chinese Yam. You can get it at Asian grocery stores like Hmart. It naturally boosts collagen and estrogen. It is a big root and the only real yam you can eat raw. I peel it and eat it raw but most people cook it in a soup or something. It is also called Nagaimo yam. Weirdly Korean get collagen from the inside of chicken feet. It is usually in a hot sauce. I watch a lot of kdramas so I've seen that before. Basically eating collagen to make collagen. I swear the chinese yam my neck are get a bit tighter.
Life tobelived thank you for this! Def going to try!! Is this the same thing as the cinnamon-vine? I've seen certain Chinese yams called.that and want to make sure I get the right one. Thanks!

Hi Schellea - what an excellent video! Thank you so much for creating & sharing it with us all. Some positive feedback about what makes your video so excellent.....your clear, specific instruction on working the muscle groups, your communication about what results from working these muscle groups we can expect, your enthusiastic, happy yet calm demeanour, & health/nutrition supporting information.
I’ve subscribed to your channel & I’m so looking forward to watching & implementing all of your videos for my workout routine.
You have helped me, a 50-something mom & wife, look forward to getting into better shape without any doubts or reluctance. Thank you so very much! 🙏🏻💐

You look like a college girl though! I'm a runner turning 49 coming July, but it is getting more and more challenging to enjoy 7 miles of daily dose of running. Ugh... Your video helps me to stay motivated. Thanks so much!!
Hi Jean! Thanks so much for watching... 7 miles a day...Is amazing! I agree Ugh! Have a beautiful week 💕
Thanks Schellea. You made tricky information much easier to understand, told us what to watch out for and demonstrated how best to implement it. You are a lovely girl by the way 😘 and always kind to us.
Hello again! I just finished doing the flabby arm workout and 10 minute arm workout. I haven't done it in a while because I've been doing other workouts with my senior center instructor, walking, biking, and yardwork. But, I really needed to get back on the stick with these exercises too! I can feel the burn this morning and that's a good thing. Thanks Schellea and have a great day. Cathy
Thank you for these great exercises! Just what I need! You look amazing!
Stay strong and fabulous Diane Columbus 💪

Thanks!!
THANK YOU !!
Bob Brawley thanks

Thank you 🙏
These are such good movements! I love your bubbly but realistic methodology! Keep up the good work helping us who are over 50!!!!
I just found these workouts and I wanted something to do so that I didn’t get the flabby arms. What I think I loved most about this video is when you said if you have the body to still work out then you should keep moving and I think that’s a blessing🙏🏾. I’m going to do these💪🏾 I’m going to incorporate these 3 to 4 times a week and thank you. I’m 53 and I love the body 🙋🏽♀️I have.
Yay! You got this Sharon!! Stay strong and fabulous xx
