    Recovering from CFS and a back injury. These exercises were perfect! The nice thing about exercising on the couch is if you get tired you can lie back and it's nice and comfortable. No need to climb back up onto the couch to rest because you're already there! Thank you so much, Meg.

    I’m in Chesapeake, VA. I’m only 45, but super obese. Due to knee injuries, I’ve pretty much been on the couch for a couple of years now. I’m so out of shape that standing for more than a few minutes will raise my heart rate. 😢 So I need to get started on something. This video was perfect for me to start regaining my strength so I can eventually get up and out to the gym. Thank you so much!!

  • @fionawilson8585
    @fionawilson8585 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I'm watching from the midlands in England. I've been doing your exercises for a few days now. I'm not over 50 I'm 41 but these exercises are great for me as I spend a lot of time sitting down on my sofa due to experiencing m.e/chronic fatigue syndrome which I have had for over 22 years now and I was so glad to come across your video as I was looking for some exercises that I could manage everyday and these small amount of exercises are just the right amount for me to do every day while sat on my sofa to build up my core muscle strength 💪 slowly, thank you ☺️

    • @tamarillo2378
      @tamarillo2378 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      And that's exactly why I'm doing these exercises too! Fatigue makes my muscles weak from too much sitting. When everything gets weak from too much sitting, I feel even tireder and the whole thing is a vicious circle. I'm hoping to break the circle and get stronger.
