I copied the sheet you recommended. I think that's enough exercise for one day. Tomorrow I hit the test hard.
Good luck, let us know how you do!
Thank you for categorizing your Videos Ed ! Easy to find videos via body part.
You are very welcome!
This is SUPER helpful and I can see how its actually a good assessment. I have to work with a senior who really wants me to do it even though I've been out of the training business for almost 6 years. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I had no dumbbells for Test #2 so I called my two brothers to come over.
Great idea! 👍
Thank you! 🙏❤️
You are very welcome, let me know how you do!
Hi Ed, I'm 68 and I could do as well as or better than the females in my age group in each category. It was fun to do your test, and it made me feel better about the shape I am in. Thanks!
Fantastic Kristin, keep it up!
Quit bragging in here. And...........girls have cooties.
I did all while I was watching your video & is very challenging and loved it. I had fracture on my right shoulder 3 years ago and can’t reach the other hand from my back. I really love all the info and the knowledge you share with us. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Rose!
I'm so old & out of shape it takes me two hours to watch 60 Minutes.
Printing the PDF and going to take this test!!!!! Should be interesting....thank you!!
Excellent Carla! Come back and post a comment after you finish and let me know how you did Good luck 👍🏻
I was able to do everything with the exception of the back scratch!!! I really need help on that one.@@FrontRowwithEd
Thank you!
You are very welcome!
Cool🎉
Thanks 🙏🏼
Quick question on the chair sit and reach, #4: Is it minus if you cannot reach your toes? So, +would be inches past your toes? My husband and I are having a discussion.
Which exercise should I do.. to activate my pituitary gland.. please make video on it🙏🇮🇳
I tried the behind the back stretch test. Bad idea. Both arms are locked in place back there. My grandson tickled me for 10 minutes. Not funny.
Had to dial 911 with my toes holding a pencil. Can I get extra credit for this ?
The woman I need to test can go from the sitting position on a chair or couch, but unable to go from standing to sitting or lay down on floor to get back up. Can you recommend what I should do?
I cannot find the PDF on the page linked. Love your videos.
