I never exercise and I have been told by the medical staff I should. I am 66 years old so seeing you and your mom do this and other videos I decided to start doing your videos. I showed my doctor your videos and she said this is perfect for me to start doing your videos. I love that it is not a fast type of exercise that I can do. Great way to start learning and doing exercises.. so thanks for helping me to get into a healthier life.
Thank you! Happy you like the workouts and pleased they are helping you to get moving! 👏 As a young 66yo it's good that you are exercising to staying strong now and for your later years! That's important! Pleased your doctor has approved the workouts for you to do too! 👏 Go at a pace that is comfortable and build from there! You can do it! We are here for you! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I really liked the walking intervals interspersed with the strength portions. So many of the strength exercises were new because of the leg move coupling! I used two 5 lb. weights most of the time (but used 1 for the knee ups) and some using 3 lbs. to protect my right shoulder and still had a challenging workout. I would love to see more using this pattern, without repeating strength portions. Thank you for innovating again, April!...Anastasia
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and the walking intervals too! They break up the routines abit and keep the strength segments ready for your body to do! 👏 As always you know the proper weights to use to keep you safe and that really helps to add the right resistance to your muscles! 💪 Experience in exercising and using weights comes in handy! Keeping you challenged is the key! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
This was a very different workout - congrats on the format! It felt more like Functional Fitness movements that are important for us seniors to do on a daily basis. And absolutely loved the "No Repeats". More like this please?
Thank you! Happy you liked it! Strength workouts are important to keeping the muscles strong as we age, and strong muscles build more muscle which is really important too! 💪 Will add your request for "no repeats" to the list! 👏 Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

I'm 72. I used to be very active with work. Since retiring, I've been a couch potato! Getting ready for a trip to Europe with lots of walking and climbing. I needed a gentle workout to get me going again. Thanks, you are an awesome duo!

April, Aiko and Mochi - You all are all inspirational! New viewer and subscriber! Your videos are so well-done, educational, relaxing and so much fun to do! It's part of a new daily regiment. Staying motivated can be a difficult challenge when it comes to exercising, but your video varieties make me feel as though each day I get to select a delicious (healthy) treat! Also like that the length of the videos--not too long and very doable! By the time the video is over I feel great and have a smile on my face!--what a great way to start a day!

This has become my favorite strength training workout as I recover from sciatica and issues with my left hip. I actually use different weights for some of the moves and adjust the exercise so as not to further aggregate my hip. A few weeks ago, I could barely walk, but I am building back balance and strength. Thank you for all the videos April that you and your mom provide!😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the workout and pleased it is of hep to you! 👏 You are doing a terrific job modifying the work out to suit your needs! 👏YAY! That's the way to do it! Love ❤️your spirit to keep moving! You are doing your body good! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you! That's nice to know! Glad you enjoy the workouts! 👏 You are doing your body good to staying strong! Keep it going and keep "rocking" with us! See you soon! ❤️
I'm 33 and not overweight but have been struggling with mental health and have been pretty sedentary since October last year. I have no energy and my legs especially feel weak but I recognise that being sedentary has not helped me at all! Thank you for sharing such a gentle work out for me to start off with. I am probably technically capable of more but I crash when I feel too exhausted from more intense workouts, so this feels like a better starting point for me 😊
It's great that you're taking steps to improve your health and well-being. Starting with a gentle workout is a smart move! Keep listening to you body and going at your own pace. ❤️
Thank you! Happy you enjoy the workouts! You are doing your body good! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Love this short senior strength workout, I feel tired but a little energized afterwards - so good for a change instead of my walking routine after breakfast! Thanks April & mom!😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Strength workouts are important to keeping your muscles strong! 💪 Feeling tired is okay as it means you worked your muscles. But give them a day of rest to recover and renew. By doing so your muscles also build more muscle too! YAY! 👏That's always a good thing! You did your body good! Keep it going and keep moving and building muscle with us! See you soon! ❤️
I always live your workouts with your mom almost every day. Thank you so much to keep me in shape.Iam 66 year of ages and I live in the Netherlands. Keep on moving please😊greetings.
Thank you and hello to you in the Netherlands! So nice of you to work out with us! Glad you enjoy the workouts! 👏 As a young 66yo it's good you are exercising to staying strong now and for your later years too! 💪 That's the way to do it! Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Great video, will be recommending to my patients and utilizing myself. I’m in my 20s, but have multiple health conditions that limit the types of exercises I can do. I need to build up strength, without losing weight, while avoiding intense cardio and/or high impact exercises. So many routines are focused on weight loss and fat burning, the complete opposite of what will help me manage my health. And no, losing weight unintentionally is not a problem people should wish they have, given all that comes along with it.
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and pleased you will share it with others! As a young 20ish it's good too that you are exercising to build strength as part of managing your health! Keep up your good work listening to what your body needs to stay healthy and strong! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Really liked the length and variety of moves on this video. Perfect for busy days.Thank you. Plan to return to this one often. Great to see Aiko so zippy! Made me smile!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and found it perfect for busy days! Happy you will do it again too! 👏That's the way to stay strong! Mom says Hi and thanks for your sweet words! She says to keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

Realized I hadn't commented on this one yet, even though I'd done it! Returned for a second time today. Love the strength & walking intervals combo, and such a convenient length to fit in when you have a spare moment. Loved the diagonal reach in the warmup section because I'd forgotten about that move, really felt a stretch doing that one! April & Aiko, you are fantastic, thank you so much.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it the second time around! (reminds me of a song!) You did your heart and muscles good too! Keep it going! Important to do strength and cardio work to staying strong! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

Hello April, Aiko and of course, Mochi. As we almost come to the end of February, I just wanted to let you know I think this is a good workout video. I enjoyed seeing Mochi at the first part of the video, he was seeking some camera time with human interaction. The moves in the video were spot on. It was so good to have a timer for exercise as well as the rest period, thanks so much for your attention to this detail. Tell Aiko her smile is so inspiring and her zest for life is apparent. April, I personally think you have a huge amount of patience and devotion to the relationship shared between mom and daughter. Keep up the good work and I will keep moving on this end. Until later! Angela
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and the latest gizmo added like the timer! Good to know how many seconds are left to keep you engaged in the routine! 👏Mom and Mochi 😻say HI and thanks for your sweet words or support! Keep up the good work to staying strong!

The variety of the strength training exercises (some new to me) made this one fun and somewhat of a brain challenge -- which made the session fly by, time wise. Shoulder rolls are always welcome. They simply feel good!
Thank you! Glad you liked it and were challenged doing it too! That's good to know! Your heart and muscles got a good workout to staying strong! YAY! 💪 That's the way to do it!

I have a failed knee replacement…….even though I have had to stop and take breaks even in your 10 minute routines I can honestly say that your workouts are definitely having a positive impact on my mobility! I try to do more than 1 video per day…sometimes I can….. sometimes I can’t…… just the way you present keeps me motivated to continue to try!!!! Thank you!!! Yes, I have to redo it uff😢but in the meantime I need to be able to get around….. because of you and your mom……. I am able to move better!!! Amazing!!! Exercise is sooo important!! Thank you for being the light at the end of my dark tunnel!! 😊

I already had all my workouts planned for the week when this one popped up yesterday, but I have watched it through a couple of times and am looking forward to trying it sometime soon. I'm planning to put it on next week's schedule. 🙂
Thank you! That sounds like a good plan! 👏 Happy you will add it to the schedule! Always good to see you challenging yourself to stay strong! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I have been doing 30-40 minute workouts lately, so I had originally planned to sandwich this new one in between another strength workout and a straight cardio workout. However, I didn't get up as early as I had planned to this morning and was subsequently short on time, so I decided to do this new short workout by itself today instead. I started out using 5-pound weights but switched to 3-pound dumbbells for the Step Forward/Arm Lifts and stuck with them for the rest of the workout, except for the Overhead Tricep Push, for which I used one 5-pound weight this time. I found this one especially challenging and sometimes got mixed up about which way to move my legs, but I'm determined to keep at it until I master it, so I plan to come back to it soon and often. 💪🙂
Thank you! Glad the workout was one you picked to do! Your heart and muscles got a good workout by using the 5lb and 3lb weights! 💪 Glad it was challenging for you too as you will do a repeat of the workout to master it! YAY! Keep it going! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it! Keeping your muscles strong is important to do and strong muscles 💪 build more muscle! YAY! 👏 It's a win win! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Loved this one April! I used 5 lb weights but really a good workout. Just learned today that strength training is one of the best things you can do for your insulin! Sooo appreciate you both! And Moochie has to get in the act too LOL 😄 God bless you 💕
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it! Using 5lbs weights was good and gave your muscles the resistance to keep them strong! 💪Strong muscles build more muscle so that's good too! Knowing that strength work helps insulin sensitivity is important and all the more reason to keep doing it! YAY! 💪 Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the workout! 👏 You did your heart and muscles good! That's the way to stay strong! 💪 Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

i absolutely love your workout videos. Did this one for the first time today and loved it. My two cats, Mork & Mindy like to hang out with me while I work out also. Can't find a way to post their pictures. I have vestibular migraines without headaches. That means vertigo and constant motion. Your videos are great for me. I enjoy your short stepper workout also. Thank you so much!!

I've been exercising with you ladies since April 8. I follow a video almost every evening -- maybe missed only a few days since I started. I really enjoy the walking and strength videos using weights. I'm not ready to increase the size of weights but would like a longer video. I found this one that is Master Strength and almost 15 minutes, but wondering if you have a 20 min. video of walking and strength training with weights? I couldn't seem to find one. Thanks for helping me improve my flexibility, strength, balance and overall fitness. Hugs to you both.
Thank you! Nice work staying strong and working out daily is terrific! You are doing your body good! 👏 Good too that you are looking to do longer strength and walking workouts! Challenging yourself to do more is a good sign you are getting stronger! 💪 Here are links to longer strength and walk workouts. Hope you find them helpful! Keep moving with us!

Regarding the sequence of cardio and strength training, there's no one-size-fits-all answer, so it's essential to experiment and find what works best for you in terms of energy levels, performance, and enjoyment. Listen to your body, pay attention to how different approaches affect your workouts, and adjust accordingly. For example, strength training typically requires more energy and focus, especially if you're lifting heavy weights or doing high-intensity exercises. Doing it first ensures that you have the necessary energy reserves to perform your lifts optimally. Starting with cardio can help you burn calories upfront, leaving you with more energy for strength training. This may be beneficial if weight loss is one of your primary goals. Similarly, eating before exercising depends on individual preferences, health conditions, and the type of exercise you plan to do. If you're planning a strenuous workout, you may benefit from a small meal or snack 1-2 hours before exercising. If you're doing a light or moderate-intensity workout, you may not need to eat beforehand. Regardless of whether you eat before exercising, it's essential to stay hydrated. Drink water before, during, and after your workout to prevent dehydration. Also, after exercise, it's important to refuel your body with a balanced meal or snack to help with recovery and muscle repair. If you have specific dietary concerns or health conditions, consider consulting with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian for personalized guidance. Love that you are focused on the processes that work best for you. Keep up the great work! 👏❤️

I never exercise and I have been told by the medical staff I should. I am 66 years old so seeing you and your mom do this and other videos I decided to start doing your videos. I showed my doctor your videos and she said this is perfect for me to start doing your videos. I love that it is not a fast type of exercise that I can do. Great way to start learning and doing exercises.. so thanks for helping me to get into a healthier life.
Thank you! Happy you like the workouts and pleased they are helping you to get moving! 👏 As a young 66yo it's good that you are exercising to staying strong now and for your later years! That's important! Pleased your doctor has approved the workouts for you to do too! 👏 Go at a pace that is comfortable and build from there! You can do it! We are here for you! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I really liked the walking intervals interspersed with the strength portions. So many of the strength exercises were new because of the leg move coupling! I used two 5 lb. weights most of the time (but used 1 for the knee ups) and some using 3 lbs. to protect my right shoulder and still had a challenging workout. I would love to see more using this pattern, without repeating strength portions. Thank you for innovating again, April!...Anastasia
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and the walking intervals too! They break up the routines abit and keep the strength segments ready for your body to do! 👏 As always you know the proper weights to use to keep you safe and that really helps to add the right resistance to your muscles! 💪 Experience in exercising and using weights comes in handy! Keeping you challenged is the key! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
This was a very different workout - congrats on the format! It felt more like Functional Fitness movements that are important for us seniors to do on a daily basis. And absolutely loved the "No Repeats". More like this please?
Thank you! Happy you liked it! Strength workouts are important to keeping the muscles strong as we age, and strong muscles build more muscle which is really important too! 💪 Will add your request for "no repeats" to the list! 👏 Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

This has become my favorite strength training workout as I recover from sciatica and issues with my left hip. I actually use different weights for some of the moves and adjust the exercise so as not to further aggregate my hip. A few weeks ago, I could barely walk, but I am building back balance and strength. Thank you for all the videos April that you and your mom provide!😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the workout and pleased it is of hep to you! 👏 You are doing a terrific job modifying the work out to suit your needs! 👏YAY! That's the way to do it! Love ❤️your spirit to keep moving! You are doing your body good! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

I'm 33 and not overweight but have been struggling with mental health and have been pretty sedentary since October last year. I have no energy and my legs especially feel weak but I recognise that being sedentary has not helped me at all! Thank you for sharing such a gentle work out for me to start off with. I am probably technically capable of more but I crash when I feel too exhausted from more intense workouts, so this feels like a better starting point for me 😊
It's great that you're taking steps to improve your health and well-being. Starting with a gentle workout is a smart move! Keep listening to you body and going at your own pace. ❤️
Your exercises are awesome as are you & your mom.🌟🌟💯💯💯🏴🏴
Thank you! Happy you enjoy the workouts! You are doing your body good! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Love this short senior strength workout, I feel tired but a little energized afterwards - so good for a change instead of my walking routine after breakfast! Thanks April & mom!😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Strength workouts are important to keeping your muscles strong! 💪 Feeling tired is okay as it means you worked your muscles. But give them a day of rest to recover and renew. By doing so your muscles also build more muscle too! YAY! 👏That's always a good thing! You did your body good! Keep it going and keep moving and building muscle with us! See you soon! ❤️
I always live your workouts with your mom almost every day.

Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Great video, will be recommending to my patients and utilizing myself. I’m in my 20s, but have multiple health conditions that limit the types of exercises I can do. I need to build up strength, without losing weight, while avoiding intense cardio and/or high impact exercises. So many routines are focused on weight loss and fat burning, the complete opposite of what will help me manage my health. And no, losing weight unintentionally is not a problem people should wish they have, given all that comes along with it.
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and pleased you will share it with others! As a young 20ish it's good too that you are exercising to build strength as part of managing your health! Keep up your good work listening to what your body needs to stay healthy and strong! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Really liked the length and variety of moves on this video. Perfect for busy days.Thank you. Plan to return to this one often. Great to see Aiko so zippy! Made me smile!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and found it perfect for busy days! Happy you will do it again too! 👏That's the way to stay strong! Mom says Hi and thanks for your sweet words! She says to keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Another great workout. 3 weeks ago I couldn't even finish the 10 min. walking video the first time I tried it. Now I can almost always keep up with you ladies. Thanks
Woo hoo! Congratulations on your fantastic progress! So proud of you -- you're making it happen! Keep the momentum going! 👏❤️

Realized I hadn't commented on this one yet, even though I'd done it! Returned for a second time today. Love the strength & walking intervals combo, and such a convenient length to fit in when you have a spare moment. Loved the diagonal reach in the warmup section because I'd forgotten about that move, really felt a stretch doing that one! April & Aiko, you are fantastic, thank you so much.

Hello April, Aiko and of course, Mochi. As we almost come to the end of February, I just wanted to let you know I think this is a good workout video. I enjoyed seeing Mochi at the first part of the video, he was seeking some camera time with human interaction. The moves in the video were spot on. It was so good to have a timer for exercise as well as the rest period, thanks so much for your attention to this detail. Tell Aiko her smile is so inspiring and her zest for life is apparent. April, I personally think you have a huge amount of patience and devotion to the relationship shared between mom and daughter. Keep up the good work and I will keep moving on this end. Until later! Angela
Thank you! Glad you liked the workout and the latest gizmo added like the timer! Good to know how many seconds are left to keep you engaged in the routine! 👏Mom and Mochi 😻say HI and thanks for your sweet words or support! Keep up the good work to staying strong! If you keep moving on your end, we will certainly keep moving on our end! 👏 See you soon! ❤️

I already had all my workouts planned for the week when this one popped up yesterday, but I have watched it through a couple of times and am looking forward to trying it sometime soon. I'm planning to put it on next week's schedule. 🙂
Thank you! That sounds like a good plan! 👏 Happy you will add it to the schedule! Always good to see you challenging yourself to stay strong! Keep it going and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
I have been doing 30-40 minute workouts lately, so I had originally planned to sandwich this new one in between another strength workout and a straight cardio workout. However, I didn't get up as early as I had planned to this morning and was subsequently short on time, so I decided to do this new short workout by itself today instead. I started out using 5-pound weights but switched to 3-pound dumbbells for the Step Forward/Arm Lifts and stuck with them for the rest of the workout, except for the Overhead Tricep Push, for which I used one 5-pound weight this time. I found this one especially challenging and sometimes got mixed up about which way to move my legs, but I'm determined to keep at it until I master it, so I plan to come back to it soon and often. 💪🙂
Thank you! Glad the workout was one you picked to do! Your heart and muscles got a good workout by using the 5lb and 3lb weights! 💪 Glad it was challenging for you too as you will do a repeat of the workout to master it! YAY! Keep it going! You are doing your body good! Keep moving with us too! See you soon! ❤️
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I need to do strength training exercises. This 3 in ONE is PERFECT!!!
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it! Keeping your muscles strong is important to do and strong muscles 💪 build more muscle! YAY! 👏 It's a win win! Keep up the good work to staying strong and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️
Loved this one April! I used 5 lb weights but really a good workout. Just learned today that strength training is one of the best things you can do for your insulin! Sooo appreciate you both! And Moochie has to get in the act too LOL 😄 God bless you 💕
Thank you! Happy you enjoyed it! Using 5lbs weights was good and gave your muscles the resistance to keep them strong! 💪Strong muscles build more muscle so that's good too! Knowing that strength work helps insulin sensitivity is important and all the more reason to keep doing it! YAY! 💪 Keep up the good work and keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

i absolutely love your workout videos. Did this one for the first time today and loved it. My two cats, Mork & Mindy like to hang out with me while I work out also. Can't find a way to post their pictures. I have vestibular migraines without headaches. That means vertigo and constant motion. Your videos are great for me. I enjoy your short stepper workout also. Thank you so much!!

I've been exercising with you ladies since April 8. I follow a video almost every evening -- maybe missed only a few days since I started. I really enjoy the walking and strength videos using weights. I'm not ready to increase the size of weights but would like a longer video. I found this one that is Master Strength and almost 15 minutes, but wondering if you have a 20 min. video of walking and strength training with weights? I couldn't seem to find one. Thanks for helping me improve my flexibility, strength, balance and overall fitness. Hugs to you both.
Thank you! Nice work staying strong and working out daily is terrific! You are doing your body good! 👏 Good too that you are looking to do longer strength and walking workouts! Challenging yourself to do more is a good sign you are getting stronger! 💪 Here are links to longer strength and walk workouts. Hope you find them helpful! Keep moving with us! See you soon! ❤️

Which should be done first walking or resistance/ weights and should I eat before or after exercise as I workout in the morning? I love your videos!!
Regarding the sequence of cardio and strength training, there's no one-size-fits-all answer, so it's essential to experiment and find what works best for you in terms of energy levels, performance, and enjoyment. Listen to your body, pay attention to how different approaches affect your workouts, and adjust accordingly. For example, strength training typically requires more energy and focus, especially if you're lifting heavy weights or doing high-intensity exercises. Doing it first ensures that you have the necessary energy reserves to perform your lifts optimally. Starting with cardio can help you burn calories upfront, leaving you with more energy for strength training. This may be beneficial if weight loss is one of your primary goals.
Similarly, eating before exercising depends on individual preferences, health conditions, and the type of exercise you plan to do. If you're planning a strenuous workout, you may benefit from a small meal or snack 1-2 hours before exercising. If you're doing a light or moderate-intensity workout, you may not need to eat beforehand. Regardless of whether you eat before exercising, it's essential to stay hydrated. Drink water before, during, and after your workout to prevent dehydration. Also, after exercise, it's important to refuel your body with a balanced meal or snack to help with recovery and muscle repair. If you have specific dietary concerns or health conditions, consider consulting with a healthcare provider or a registered dietitian for personalized guidance.
Love that you are focused on the processes that work best for you. Keep up the great work! 👏❤️
