Thank you so much, I am sure that these exercises will help me, I am 76 years old in October, I have severe arthritis in both my knees and I suffer with Sciatica, I also have a twisted spine and spondylitis in my neck,& osteoporosis in my right shoulder & left wrist, I think I need rebuilding 😅 can I safely do these exercises for my swelling ankles & feet ?
This is amazing! I spent money with medication that did nothing. I just watched your video and did probably 10 times, 50 reps each. It was like magic, the swelling went away just like that, I didnt even had to do it again. I still can't believe it! Thank u, God bless u. Btw... I just did the first exercise, that's it!
Hi Will…these exercises have helped me greatly…such a delight to have again my early morning walks in the park and along the beach this summer..you’re an electronic angel spreading healing and inspiration within the senior community…congratulations on going over the 100k channel subscriptions…a million + is on the near horizon…you earned it your way….❤️……
Thanks,recap,ankle pump,2 minutes.seated calf raise,sit and raise your heels by toes,press body and arms on thighs.standing calf raise,on tip toes,brisk up 2 ,down with2,on one leg,set10-20,squat for strength and blood flow.
Thank you Will, Im 75 and just started doing these today. I have bursitis in both hips and herniated discs . So these exercises will be of a great help to me. 😊 much love from Tasmania, Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
These are harder than they look! I am 78 and I can do all except the single leg raise on toes while standing. I can do it with the right leg, but not the left. My left knee has hurt when stressed for years, and my left lower back has had L4-L5 bulges, along with lumbar stenosis. But these are great exercises. Thank you so much!
Thank you very much young man. You are an Angel sent from Heaven to help me. I have been off sick from April due to knee pain and stiffness. My GP said its due to age because I am almost 65yrs. I have been doing your exercise and am pleased to report the stiffness in my knee is reducing each day.
Thank you Will. I am still working, (68) but through the night my legs ache and disturb my sleep. After watching your videos I have made a plan through the day and eve that may help my sleep😊
I need this information for sure. I have poor circulation which causes me to have low blood pressure... especially in the morning when I'm just standing. Very helpful exercises when I have to sit or stand for a while when I'm out and about!!!
Thank you for this (especially) and all your advice for those over 50. I am well over 50 and a certified fitness instructor but after several recent injuries and previous DVT’s (one near fatal), I have been trying various exercises found on TH-cam for months, but trying these exercises, I felt the difference and impact on my circulation immediately. I am sharing with others I know with similar issues and will be sharing this and you with other fitness instructors. I am so glad I happened upon your videos more recently and even one other really good one recently released i saw copied by another PT within 2 weeks (which I found first) but not as well demonstrated or demonstrated in a way as good for middle aged, injured or older individuals even though the same exercise. We are taught as fitness instructors to show modifications whenever we teach and you do that well. (Not sure about other PT’s.) Please keep these coming!
Thank you for all your videos, Will. I found you while dealing with sciatica from bulging disc. So much pain! I am doing much better now, doing the exercises DAILY. Almost ready to start longer walks again, yaaay! I appreciate you very much 💪🌞😍
Hi Will I recently bought your book. I am finding it to be an interesting read. I'm in my early sixties now and want to stay fit and healthy your videos are informative and you explain yourself very well. Well done to you young man.
New subscriber i am 51 suffering from spinal stenosis and L4L5 low back bulging dic and have spinal stenosis it is very hard for me to walk without sitting down along the way just going to the car to get in and to the mailbox I have to sit down along the way thank you so much I'm going to start these exercises How can I order your book please and thank you You are a blessing to us all❤
In india there is a special treatment to put bulged disc back to normal position. It seems your problem starts from. My wife had a problem like this with L4 , L5 which is solved by this treatment.
Love your videos. I used to exercise every single day, i was in great shape. But now i know my limitations as i grow older. Thank you for the tips for people over 50. Great job! ❤
Thank you. You're a truly fantastic Godsend, I'm very glad I stumbled upon your channel, I wish you were located here in Australia! Good cheer and happy fortune attend you, many thanks from Melbourne, Australia.
I know everybody’s experience is different, but if I may share my own experience, at 46 years old, I had thrombophlebitis, which is a lot like Deep Vein Thrombosis, and it came on after a short period of inactivity, recovering from an eye operation. I decided I would slowly get back in shape by doing deep knee bends (squats) holding on to the back of a chair. I did a few reps, then the following day, it felt like I had a sprained my ankle and I had shortness of breath. I went to the ER of our local hospital. Walking from the parking lot to the ER was quite an ordeal, I couldn’t breath normally, they got me to the ICU straight away, where I received proper treatment. Well, this was 7 years ago, my leg is still slightly swollen and red compared to the other, and I have little blisters that keep coming back. I’m on Eliquis which is a blood thinner, I also take Bisoprolol which a beta blocker. Moral of the story : Watch it with the squats, that’s all I’m saying.
I have just begun to have problems with my leg circulation. I found your channel just in time. I have slacked off the walking and jogging due to an injury which kept me immobile for a couple months. Man, did that take it's toll. Now it's time for no more excuses. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you Will. You're advice and exercises are simple and straightforward. I love how you not only explain the exercises but their purpose for which muscles they help. I found your videos about a month ago as a suggestion by TH-cam from some other health videos I had been watching and I'm so glad I clicked. I've been trying some of the exercises and stretches the last few weeks and I am already feeling the effects and getting benefits. Keep it up!!
Thank you very much, I don't have any problem, but I do have a family member who does and will certainly recommend your advice. Thanks again, from New Zealand.
Thank you so very much! I work from home and I have found that my legs have gotten weaker because I am sitting most of the day. I bought a blue tooth headset recently so I can at least walk around the house but it's still not enough. I will definitely do these every day!
Get a sit to stand desk that you can raise and lower easily. Autonomous makes some affordable options. A good standing mat with height gradient edges and good cushioning for your feet also helps. Try to stand for at least half your work day, consider 1 hour up, then 1 hour down and alternate or whatever timing fits what you can handle.
I love listening to these videos. Will talks straight from the shoulder. He sounds like the son I don't have. I could just give him a hug. He is so helpful. Thanks Will.
Thank you for posting these videos. I tried finding a video on knees with no luck. I can walk up steps just fine, but going down is painful along with the feeling that they are giving out. I'm 6'1 177lbs only 53 and have always walked down 2 steps at a time. Any ideas on which muscles to concentrate on is appreciated.
Thanks for this. I am 81 and use a cane for balance and have been doing yoga for many years. Also walking my fog 2x daily. But. Knee injury slowed me down. Glad to have my cane misuse addressed and know that my exercises are actually correct. Thanks again.
Thanks for these helpful tips. I have been doing three of the exercises that you mentioned in this video, for quite some time now. Thanks for sharing them again. Regards
Thank you Will for all your videos, disarmingly simple exercises but effective for this 77 year old. And presented so masterly. I was wondering how to counteract the loss of muscle mass during and following covid, and you have provided an answer. I mentioned the issue to doctors, who did not know the answer. I have two questions if I may: how to measure objectively the success or otherwise after 6-8 weeks, and, if successful in our endeavours, do we continue with the same exercises, or is there a way of maintaining with a ‘lighter’ regime? Best wishes to you and your team from Kuala Lumpur.
Have really benefitted from the exercises you are offering. I am housebound and slowly finding all my muscles giving up and I am in pain everywhere - hips, knees, feet. At least your recommendations give me some hope. I have subscribed.
Hello Will, I tried your exercises recommended before walking yesterday and it really helped. I’m definitely going to try these from today’s video as well. Thank you so much.
I have been doing the 1st 3 of these exercises since my blood clots back in August 2018. I had a DVT in left leg and PEs in both lungs. Thankfully, the Heparin drip in the hospital and my body cleared up the PEs in less than 2 weeks. I spent 9 days in the hospital. I am on Jantoven for the rest of my life but I am very lucky to be alive. I am going to try doing the squats. Thanks Will.
Thank you Physio Will Harlow, happy I managed to find these exercise. Pray will make my walking easier 🙏🙏🙏. I had a knee replacement 2 years ago and a pinched nerve operation last April. God bless you and your work🙏
Thank you for the exercises. They’re leg strengthening exercises as well. I have restless leg syndrome and I noticed that your exercises somewhat minimized the discomfort that comes with RLS.
All great helpful exercises. I am in my seventies and a bit lazy at times, but in my old farmyard, I have a door about shoulder height. I catch the top of it and lower my body down and do twenty fairly rapid squats, and find it a great for removing tension from the upper and lower body. I also stand upright and put my hands on my hips, and with my feet apart, I stiffen and then release my leg muscles from my glutes to my ankles about twenty times and also find it very helpful. I am trying to find the best combination because, at my age, using too many could confuse me . Again, thank you for very instructive videos.
I discovered this video today and I started right in. I experienced a better flow from my toes to my knees. Love how we are able to do chair exercises right in the bedroom. Can you introduce us to more exercise from the knee to the upper thighs? Thanks for keeping it simple (KISS)
As someone with a fractured, osteoarthritic hip, can I suggest that people with anything similar purchase a couple of different sized Swiss Exercise Balls to use in the front room while sitting down. One can use a good chair height one as exactly that, while a smaller size can support the upper leg length while seated to do related exercises. Also, buy a High Chair (with arms) to use in the kitchen while watching stuff online. I have built up a number of YT folders which I name after the related parts of the body I want to exercise over any day. These two pieces of ‘equipment’ should encourage you to adapt many, many exercises, while at the same time evolving one’s range of challenges to your own particular body.
Thank you for the exersizes! I have been doing a couple of them amongst some chi gung exersizes. Having been diagnosed recently with Intermittent claudication in my right calf muscle. So yr tips are much appreciated! 🙏😊😉😎🌞👍
I hope my video proves beneficial for your brother - I also have the following video on leg cramps which may be of interest! th-cam.com/video/elKNYiu24Jw/w-d-xo.html
Good morning Sir I'm watching your videos Alhamdulillah very helpful for all of us Jazak ALLAH Khair Sir Kindly please make video for shin pain. I have shin pain for years which is killing me 😢
I love your simple exercises...l have plantar faciistis in my left foot (l use a ball or a bottle of ice water) and a really bad knee on the right and all those movements help.
Greetings, Will, from the southern California desert. 👋 I have a couple topics and I'm wondering if you might address them or perhaps, if you already have, lead me to prior videos of yours. This first one is about dealing with depression after a TKR - I've fought depression since I was in my late teens (I'm 65 now) and my TKR seven weeks ago brings with it a whole different set of "issues" to contend with on a daily basis. My second curiosity is about how to get up from the floor, whether it be from, God forbid, a fall or having gotten on the floor intentionally. Your videos and book are SO VERY helpful to me and I'd love to hear your take on these two topics. Thank you! Hugs, MK 🤗
@EmmKaa. As far as getting up from the floor, I also have that fear. I decided that if that happens, the best thing to do would be to crawl to the nearest chair that was sturdy, and do everything that I can to pull up using the chair.
Thank you so much for the comment and sorry to hear about the issues you've been having since your TKR. I'm not really the best person to talk about depression as I have no expertise on it but I can share more information about TKR recovery in future videos. As for getting up from the floor, that video is dropping tomorrow :)
Hi I’m watching from Australia NSW and this is my first time to watch you,I find this very interesting , you talk very clear Thank you and I hope to watch you every day God bless you
Very much appreciate your brillant videos! I am 73 and have been following your exercises and feeling the difference they make to my knees (injuries from falls). Thank you so much, Will. You are a breath of fresh air from all the physios I had before. Your advice is so spot-on. With love from Newcastle Australia.
Love your videos so far. Just discovered you today. However, seniors and 50's do not go together. I think to be called a 'Senior' it is 65 or older. Also, these mobility exercises are great for most any adult age. Thank you for your content. Very well done.
Senior communities all over America are restricted to those over 50 years old. 50 is no Spring chicken! 😂 I remember turning 50 and suddenly aches, pain, and health issues started popping up quickly. I still consider myself fairly physically fit for a senior from all my daily biking, hiking, and kayaking, but it's been all downhill from 50! 😂
Hello! Thank you for this video and other videos I have been watching over the last few weeks. I was recently diagnosed with chronic venous inefficiency and I currently have a patch on the shin of my right leg. I am on medication to increase blood circulation in this leg and I have been advised to purchase support stockings. Due to my work, I do a lot of sitting and standing; however since watch your videos, I can do some of these exercise right under my desk at work! I especially love the calf raise exercise because those can be done anywhere...in the shower is good too (just be careful to hold on and do not slip!). I cannot wait to purchase your book. I am a 58 year old black woman. I do other exercises for flexibility and mobility. Thank you Will!!!
Hi there! I'm so pleased my videos have been able to offer information and support for what you are experiencing. It sounds like you're taking the necessary steps to protect yourself which is great. I hope you find my book full of helpful and interesting information if you do choose to purchase it! Keep up the great work :)

I hope my video proves beneficial for your brother - I also have the following video on leg cramps which may be of interest! th-cam.com/video/elKNYiu24Jw/w-d-xo.html
Another very helpful video! Thank you, Wil.
You're welcome!
Good morning Sir

Kindly please make video for shin pain. I have shin pain for years which is killing me 😢
Hi Will I'm from Malaysia. Thank you ever so much for the exercises you have shown . I've worked on them .
My legs are stronger now.
I love your simple exercises...l have plantar faciistis in my left foot (l use a ball or a bottle of ice water) and a really bad knee on the right and all those movements help.
Thank you from South of France. Much love
You're welcome!

Hello that is so awesome doing great always bless you ❤️ 🎉🎉🎉
Greetings, Will, from the southern California desert. 👋
I have a couple topics and I'm wondering if you might address them or perhaps, if you already have, lead me to prior videos of yours.
This first one is about dealing with depression after a TKR - I've fought depression since I was in my late teens (I'm 65 now) and my TKR seven weeks ago brings with it a whole different set of "issues" to contend with on a daily basis.
My second curiosity is about how to get up from the floor, whether it be from, God forbid, a fall or having gotten on the floor intentionally.
Your videos and book are SO VERY helpful to me and I'd love to hear your take on these two topics.
Thank you! Hugs, MK 🤗
@EmmKaa. As far as getting up from the floor, I also have that fear. I decided that if that happens, the best thing to do would be to crawl to the nearest chair that was sturdy, and do everything that I can to pull up using the chair.
Thank you so much for the comment and sorry to hear about the issues you've been having since your TKR. I'm not really the best person to talk about depression as I have no expertise on it but I can share more information about TKR recovery in future videos. As for getting up from the floor, that video is dropping tomorrow :)
Hi I’m watching from Australia NSW and this is my first time to watch you,I find this very interesting , you talk very clear Thank you and I hope to watch you every day God bless you
Very much appreciate your brillant videos! I am 73 and have been following your exercises and feeling the difference they make to my knees (injuries from falls). Thank you so much, Will. You are a breath of fresh air from all the physios I had before. Your advice is so spot-on. With love from Newcastle Australia.
VERY GOOD VIDEOS GREAT FOR SENIORS THANK YOU FOR THE SIMPLE EXERCISES
OMG Will! You must be wizard. I'm having issues with my feet,especially the lower right side of my right leg 😢
Love your videos so far. Just discovered you today. However, seniors and 50's do not go together. I think to be called a 'Senior' it is 65 or older. Also, these mobility exercises are great for most any adult age. Thank you for your content. Very well done.
Senior communities all over America are restricted to those over 50 years old. 50 is no Spring chicken! 😂 I remember turning 50 and suddenly aches, pain, and health issues started popping up quickly. I still consider myself fairly physically fit for a senior from all my daily biking, hiking, and kayaking, but it's been all downhill from 50! 😂
Sorry to inform you but being a senior is more 55+ I'm a senior at 63 thank you...
Thank you, helped me already. instantly!
Watching again... first video Ive ever seen that has given me the explanation of how circulation works! Exercises are great 😊

Hello! Thank you for this video and other videos I have been watching over the last few weeks. I was recently diagnosed with chronic venous inefficiency and I currently have a patch on the shin of my right leg. I am on medication to increase blood circulation in this leg and I have been advised to purchase support stockings.
Due to my work, I do a lot of sitting and standing; however since watch your videos, I can do some of these exercise right under my desk at work! I especially love the calf raise exercise because those can be done anywhere...in the shower is good too (just be careful to hold on and do not slip!). I cannot wait to purchase your book. I am a 58 year old black woman. I do other exercises for flexibility and mobility. Thank you Will!!!
Hi there! I'm so pleased my videos have been able to offer information and support for what you are experiencing. It sounds like you're taking the necessary steps to protect yourself which is great. I hope you find my book full of helpful and interesting information if you do choose to purchase it! Keep up the great work :)
@@HT-Physio thank you so much!
Added exercises for blood circulation to choose from for what is best for us who have leg problems. Thanks so much!
Just discovered your videos….excellent info. Thank You.
Thank you young man!
