Hello, I recognize myself in all the laudatory comments. With my 124 kg for 1.72 m, 60 years old and a lot of osteoarthritis pain, I could hardly walk. I started your program 1 month ago and from 5 minutes, I am already at 10 minutes: double in just one month! and thanks to you! Thank you, thank you, thank you. I do a session every morning, level 1 and in September, I will add a session at the end of the day. You give me back the hope and confidence of being able to walk again one day, that is to say freedom. It's huge! Thank you with all my heart.🤩🥇🇫🇷
A massive THANK YOU for sharing your progress with me! I am definitely looking forward to reading about your progress again in the future. Kudos to you for showing up to exercise every day and for making these changes. I also love how you have a new goals for September for moving forward. I'll add my second channel for you in case you're interested in new seated stretches or a combo of seated/standing workouts: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
I saw my doctor today. She walked into the room carrying her laptop (no more prescription pads or files) and asked me what I've been doing because I've lost weight and brought my A1C (test for fasting blood sugar) down to normal limits. When I told her about your exercise programs, she immediately brought up your site. She was very happy with my results and said that she will start recommending your program to other patients. I was never into exercise, but I enjoy your videos so much and do one or two every day. So, a big thank you to you for all your hard work and time spent helping people improve their health.
Oh my gosh, you have put such a massive smile on my face! I am absolutely thrilled to read about your progress! I am so happy for you! Thank you so much for telling your doctor about my channel. I definitely appreciate that.❤️
How sweet of you! Wonderful! Jules deserves all the credit and help. Because she really does help a lot of people with a variety of exercise programs. I tried harder ones but they are too hard for me, so I ended up here. I enjoy these.
I had a similar experience with my primary care doctor; my blood pressure went from the 155/90 last time I was in her office to 102/70 two weeks ago. She asked what blood pressure medicine the cardiologist gave me and was shocked when I told her that he took me off all of it, and that I was working out daily with Improved Health on youtube. It's been 10 months of exercise and it's been more fun and more effective than I ever imagined.
Kudos to you and so glad for you. Jules is great and I have been helped by all her videos. I am sharing them with others, so that they can get the same help and results too.
I'll be 40 this year, am obese, and suffer from chronic pain. I haven't been moving because of the pain which makes me hurt more when I do move. I felt trapped. Until I saw your video. All the other videos were too fast for me to keep up which was very discouraging but this one is a game-changer. I have to do it in 5-minute increments to start out but I know soon I'll be able to get through the entire video. My endgame is to run one sweet day. Thank you for these videos as they give me hope that as long as I am willing to start somewhere change is possible. Be Blessed!
I am so glad to have you here. Thank you for taking the time to let me know about your health and the journey you have been on while looking to improve your health. I love your determination and I truly believe that one day you will run. Welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) and categorize them all into the playlists. If you enjoyed this one, you can find plenty more at this same level under the 'gentle level' playlists. You'll notice new ones going up on Mondays, but for now stick with the gentle level workouts so you stay on track, and don't get discouraged. As you get stronger, you can start to do more than one gentle level workout a day but for now, start slow, be proud of your accomplishments and take each day by day. I truly hope my workouts keep you coming back every day.
I’m proud of you! One step at a time. Ifeel the same way after 3 years a cancer treatments and 2 back and hip surgeries. I’m getting my life and pride back.
I am a senior (77) and I absolutely love your videos, they are so very well done, nothing too complex just good steps with smooth transition! Thank you so very much for sharing these videos with all of us! 😊❤
Thanks so much for taking the time to provide me with feedback and to let me know that you're enjoying the workouts. I'm so happy to read that. Kudos to you for continuing to exercise and for taking care of your health.❤️
I'm very happy to read your comment. Thank you so much for taking the time to write it, and a massive kudos to you for doing strength training, too! That's great!
Just did this workout, and I enjoyed it. Nice music, and I appreciate the no talking. I am 45 F, overweight and have been dealing with chronic pain for years. "Senior Workouts" were about the only thing I could do eventually. Finally this year hit the right therapist who did a 3 month intensive for my shoulder, I willingly underwent surgery for ankle (artrodesis and osteotomy). Am stable enough that I am now trying a few gentle workouts again. It was a good challenge...thankfully the last few minutes were seated otherwise I'd have stopped early. But I was sweating and breathing harder by the end. So, just a thank you for your content--from a non senior citizen.
Welcome to my channel, Megan! I actually took the 'for seniors' off my original channel name since these workouts are appropriate for all ages. Thanks for sharing that you're not a senior:) Since I create 3 levels of workouts, you can do what level works best for you. I'm so glad that you enjoyed this one, and could do it (whether standing or seated, you still did it!). On days when you are dealing with more pain, the seated workouts might be a good option (the gentle ones might actually help with the pain since we focus on gentle range of motion movements). I hope you keep coming back and I truly hope these workouts help.
Bravo to Kurt! Love these oldies...I sang almost all of them! No chance for a morning's walkabout today, so I spent 30 minutes cleaning out a couple of cupboards, up and down a step stool, and finished up with this one for a little bit of body movement and stretching!
What a beaut, Jules...stretching to Unchained Melody was sheer genius ❤ Big shoutout to KD, bigger one to Jules..for her ability to put all the right things together into one HEALTHY package😊
I came here because I have bad feet and have to lay low on the neighborhood walking I've been doing for so many years. These exercises on all your videos really hit the spot!
I'm glad to read that these videos are working for you. Thank you for letting me know. You can find all of my videos categorized in the playlists and on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). Welcome to my channel!
I just got back from a vis to see my grandkids and wanted to get back to working out. This was the perfect one to get me back at it, thank you! I’m 75 and you would have been proud of me running to catch my plane as the airline had changed the boarding time to two hours late and then at the last minute put it back to the original time. My son in law is a great driver and got me their as they were boarding. Thanks to your great workouts I made it on to the airplane. Sending hugs of thanks! Grandma Bubbles
Wow, I’m surprised the airline did that…I’m guessing lots of people missed the flight. I loved reading about how you physically managed it and made it there in time. Thank goodness you’re working out and capable of moving fast:) Kudos to you for getting back to an exercise routine now that you’re back home!
It’s the music…exercise is so boring but with music from back in the day, something relatable, it becomes joy. Thank you, and thank you to the person you acknowledged for this music❤
I chose this as my post-prandial w/o this morning...you've given us so many choices, Jules...not exercising is no longer an option!! Wishing you a lovely, gentle, healthy day ahead 🥰
Just the right workout when you don't really feel like doing anything (because you've been in the pool all day with your little son, for example). The great music puts you in a good mood, and at the end you're glad to have done at least something. Thanks, Jules!
I LOVE your videos! I am not a senior, but I have advanced scoliosis and chronic back problems. It is so nice to find workouts that are short and very doable. I love that it is only 10, 15, 20 minutes. And broken up into the 30 second increments. Very manageable! I especially love the walking workouts and how chill they are! I love the "no talking" peaceful approach you take. It would be so fun to see you branch out into other music, like Jazz or Country or even like themes, an enchanted walk in the woods, lol! I would also LOVE a Prince walk and dance video lol! Thank you for making this content that works for me and motivates me.
Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. I'm very happy to read that you're enjoying the variety. I create gentle, beginner and intermediate level workouts which are all categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I occasionally create popular music videos but using copyrighted music is challenging, so I don't use it that often (also, any income from those goes to the music companies). I'd love to use popular music all the time, but I wouldn't earn an income then and wouldn't be able to continue. I am currently working on an 80's video so that'll be up soon. I hope you continue to enjoy what I create. Thanks so much for letting me know that you are new here:)
Our my!!!!! That was wonderful and I. Had to remember that it was exercise and not karaoke. Kurt, you rock! Thank you sooo much for sharing your talent
I haven’t exercised in quite a while because of knee pain, but my blood sugar has been higher than I wanted. Today I tried this routine. I was ready to quit at the 8 minute mark, and then the song would change, and I would keep moving. Before I knew it, we were finished. Thank you for your help.
I am so glad to have you here...and congratulations for pushing through and finishing the whole workout. That's great! Just so you know, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate). You can find all of my workouts categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I hope you enjoy more of the workouts, and welcome to my channel!
Thank you and thank you for subscribing! If you liked this one, you can find more at this level under the 'gentle level' playlists. I'm so glad that you're enjoying them.❤️
I did this yesterday without making a comment but I've been thinking of what you put at the end. "Fall in love with taking care of your body." Thank you for those words of encouragement, and other words you write on your other videos. I greatly appreciate all that you do and say. Thank you for showing people like me who don't like to exercise that there is a way to do something. Jules, you are a blessing.
@@ImprovedHealth As a 35 year old with knee injuries who desperately searched for low impact workouts and dance workouts that I can do, I was so very grateful to find your channel.
Jules, this workout brought a huge smile to my face. The inclusion of Unchained Melody for stretching was absolutely perfect. Fly Me to the Moon brought back such memories of my parents - my parents, especially my mother, were huge Frank Sinatra fans.
Before breakfast there was cardio, and after breakfast there was a very nice walk and light stretching with Jules. Thank you so much, Jules, for the pleasure! Have a good day!
Well, today turned out to be the day we had to squeeze in only a short workout. I love this one! Of course, I love the music so much! I also love the new moves. We appreciate you for continuing to work so hard to make new and interesting videos for us to exercise with. Thank you, thank you! Yo are absolutely the best!!!!
Thank you...that music tho...so fun! A nice calm little surprise...and yet the workout was so good! I didn't think I'd feel the 'burn' in this 'gentle' video...but I did. Yeah!
Loved the music on this one! It really did fly by. This is a good one for when you're needing it to be slower and easier (coming back from being sick and not working out). Thanks!!
Thank you for saving my life! It may seem like a crazy thing to say but it’s true. I did’t exercise until I found your channel. You make it fun and easy!
I'm 68 years old and have been looking for a low impact walking workout. I'm loving your videos! They are perfect for me to get me started! Every day, three weeks in and I'm seeing great results in how I feel and look! This video is my favorite! Thank you so much!😊
Hi Trish! Thanks so much for letting me know that you're enjoying my workouts and that you're noticing changes (that's always exciting!). Congrats for working out daily and for making your health and fitness a priority.💪 I hope you continue to enjoy the variety of workouts I create. Thanks also for subscribing!

Oh wow! I'm gonna have fun with this workout channel. So glad I found you. And to think, I just searched "15 min workout" here in TH-cam, and your video was 1st to pop up.
I'm very happy to read that mine was the first one to pop up! That's great! Thanks as well for letting me know that you enjoyed this workout. If you liked this one, I think you'll enjoy the new upload I put up today (a disco workout). I hope you continue to have fun with my workouts:)
As soon as you started with Beyond the Sea, I knew this was going to be great; now one of my favorites! I love the music. It’s so hard to find great exercise videos with standards..thank you!
I spent almost 4 hours out in the hot Texas sun today. I wanted a gentle workout for this afternoon and this one was perfect. I was lip syncing along with the songs and it didn't feel like 15 minutes. Loved it!!
@@ImprovedHealth come in the spring. Temps are great. East TX and what we call The Hill Country are the most beautiful. That's north of Austin. BTW, I was golfing and in a golf cart with a fan and when we can, we park in the shade.

Hello, Jules! It's warm here today, so I've split my exercises in half: this one, which is a bit slower, although I kicked certain moves up a notch while adhering to the music's beat. Later on, when it cools down, I'll search for something a bit more demanding. A nicely designed routine, great songs, a lovely set...and YOU!. Thank you!...Anastasia
Found this after binging on milk chocolate the last couple days, (it doesn't take much). Yuck!, no more. Love this and the music is fantastic. Thanks for rescuing me!
Thank you! I keep hoping the singer comes out with more videos of the oldies but so far the new music he has put out is too slow. When he puts out more faster beat songs, I'll create another one.
This such a fun walk. I caught myself snapping my fingers. 😁I can see this being an excellent mid-afternoon gentle energizer or adding light weights for some extra toning. Thanks Jules.
I usually do your longer videos, but am recovering from bronchitis. Just starting to get my energy back. This was perfect. I will gradually build up to you normal length videos. Thank you. Really enjoy your workouts
Thank you for letting me know that these workouts are doable for you as you recover from an injury. You'll find more at this level under the 'gentle level' playlists on my channel. Wishing you a quick recovery!
Today is a recovery day for me and this workout was perfect to warm up my tired muscles. It felt great, and I loved the music. Thanks for this and all your videos!
Yes Jules, it's really me! I started this workout with mixed feelings - happy to be exercising again, and sad that this is so different from before. Then I read some of the comments below and realized I should be happy to do any exercise at all, and began to change my perspective. Thank you Jules for all level of your exercise videos 🏄♂🏌♀🏌♀⛹♀🏋♀💇👩🦽
I'm 49 year old, weight last Tues when I started my journey was 24st 2. I've managed 5 mins of this workout and had to stop for a break, I'm so embarrassed, but also so impressed as it's a small step I'm taking and I know it'll lead to a much better me xx
I am so glad that you are here, Amanda. Welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) and categorize them all into the playlists. If you enjoyed this one, you can find plenty more at this same level under the 'gentle level' playlists. There is no need to be embarrassed...the wonderful thing is you can do these at home, work out at your own pace and take breaks as much as you need to. My suggestion is to try to come back to doing 5-10 minutes every day of the gentle level workouts. On days when you're not feeling motivated, just promise yourself you'll commit to 5 minutes. We all have to start somewhere, and the fact that you're starting is what is important. I truly hope to see more comments from you in the future and I'd love to read about your progress.
I just found your videos. i am 63 and have a long way to go. So I hope we make this journey together. Im currently mobility challenged. But, i believe this can help. I used to do the Richard Simmons videos years ago. But,ni think i like yours better for me today. Thank you for doing this.

I also have a second channel where I upload seated workouts. I upload a lot of stretching routines from a chair which viewers from this channel also find helpful. I'll add the link for you in case you're interested: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
This routine works great as a cooldown after doing normal cardio, very relaxing too. I've been doing 2 videos/routines daily and can't see myself skipping them. Awesome work!
Jules, thank you so much for the songs on this exercise😀 I exercise with you and Kurt's songs make me so happy - sunshine to my soul and wings to my feet🤩🥰
I'm not a senior but I enjoyed this workout so much. It was a good way to end a killer leg day. The music, the general vibe, the stretches. I'll be back here after my next leg workout 🙂
7, 05 2023 Hi Jules, I am on the second workout today with you. I love the gentle ones, it seems in my exhausted state they work for me without giving me frustration. I love this even more in that you put music from the 50&60-ies, crooners and I love them. I love songs more than those tunes that are only instrumental like in your 10 minute gentle one from yesterday. At the same time, I suppose you aim these videos for a much older generation because you put the sitting stretches and that is a bit too much for me, for easiness, so I did them standing. I have a clue that it might be my hormone treatment pills that give me this extreme tiredness at the period time. My best friend told me she had the same thing and she decided to put up with the hot flashes rather than this. Me, I cannot endure hot flashes, so I will go back to my doctor, when I have money, and discuss a possible change in the pills because perhaps these do not work for me well.
I am glad to read that you plan to check in with your doctor. It definitely sounds like something needs to change. I also want to say congrats for making it back for a second workout! Breaking up workouts is a great idea since it'll allow you to do more when you're struggling with energy.

You have such a fun way of teaching and leading, without commenting. You are very encouraging and I think chose perfect an overall body workout which is also relaxing. The music is great too!! I will be joining more often!! Thanks for a whimsical, healthy pre-bedtime workout (I know this must be for any time of day, but that's when I did it). I love love love the music and it really fit the exercises too, lol!!

It always feels good to clean and organize (or I think so anyway!).
What a beaut, Jules...stretching to Unchained Melody was sheer genius ❤
Big shoutout to KD, bigger one to Jules..for her ability to put all the right things together into one HEALTHY package😊
Thanks so much, Anuradha.🥰
Oh my word!
Who couldn't join in with your gentle workout to Kurt Davies!
What a lovely way to put smiles on faces! 😊
Thanks Annette.😃

Our evening workout.
Aww, thanks Mary!
The Kurt Davies covers are smooth, moody and marvelous accompaniment for the morning exercise.
I do enjoy his voice:)
It’s the music…exercise is so boring but with music from back in the day, something relatable, it becomes joy. Thank you, and thank you to the person you acknowledged for this music❤

I would also LOVE a Prince walk and dance video lol! Thank you for making this content that works for me and motivates me.
The music in this one is great though! Love the Motown!
Thank you very much for taking the time to comment. I'm very happy to read that you're enjoying the variety. I create gentle, beginner and intermediate level workouts which are all categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I occasionally create popular music videos but using copyrighted music is challenging, so I don't use it that often (also, any income from those goes to the music companies). I'd love to use popular music all the time, but I wouldn't earn an income then and wouldn't be able to continue. I am currently working on an 80's video so that'll be up soon. I hope you continue to enjoy what I create. Thanks so much for letting me know that you are new here:)
Our my!!!!! That was wonderful and I. Had to remember that it was exercise and not karaoke. Kurt, you rock! Thank you sooo much for sharing your talent
I'm so glad that you enjoyed it.
I haven’t exercised in quite a while because of knee pain, but my blood sugar has been higher than I wanted. Today I tried this routine. I was ready to quit at the 8 minute mark, and then the song would change, and I would keep moving. Before I knew it, we were finished. Thank you for your help.
I am so glad to have you here...and congratulations for pushing through and finishing the whole workout. That's great! Just so you know, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate). You can find all of my workouts categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I hope you enjoy more of the workouts, and welcome to my channel!
I LOVE YOUR WALKING WORKOUTS!!! Thank you!!
Thank you and thank you for subscribing! If you liked this one, you can find more at this level under the 'gentle level' playlists. I'm so glad that you're enjoying them.❤️
More like this video please! Super loved it…
Thank you! You can find more like this one under the ‘gentle level’ playlists.
@@ImprovedHealth thank you I'll check it out. What I enjoyed most are the oldies songs. Thank you for putting it together!
love your channel. I am 75 and not only find physical but mental improvement. Thank you.
Thanks so much for sharing that with me, Ann.
I loved this one because today I really didn't feel like doing gym and then found this 15 minutes video and it was great. Thanks!
Thanks Nelly!
at 75 I loved the balance exercise and thank you for it all...love the music too.
Thanks for the feedback, Linda. I appreciate it!
Love the medley of songs Jules. Short and sweet. Thanks.
I did this yesterday without making a comment but I've been thinking of what you put at the end. "Fall in love with taking care of your body." Thank you for those words of encouragement, and other words you write on your other videos. I greatly appreciate all that you do and say. Thank you for showing people like me who don't like to exercise that there is a way to do something. Jules, you are a blessing.
Thank you for your very thoughtful comment. I appreciate that you reflected on the quote and came back to write a comment about it.
That was so so good. Flew by. Thanks Jules. You're the best!
Thanks Val!
This is great for transitioning from seated to standing exercises. Thanks for exercises and music!
I’m glad to read that you are able to modify the exercises as needed.
Fun fun and now I’m in fridaymood - Thank you ❤
Oh yay! Being in 'Fridaymood' is definitely a great mood to be in:)
Thank you dear Jules for this wonderful workout. God bless you!
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Your comments are always so kind. Thanks Christabelle.💕
@@ImprovedHealth As a 35 year old with knee injuries who desperately searched for low impact workouts and dance workouts that I can do, I was so very grateful to find your channel.
@@christabellelysander4392 I'm so glad you're enjoying the workouts I create. Thanks Christabelle!
Jules, this workout brought a huge smile to my face. The inclusion of Unchained Melody for stretching was absolutely perfect. Fly Me to the Moon brought back such memories of my parents - my parents, especially my mother, were huge Frank Sinatra fans.
I'm so glad the songs brought back memories of your parents. I love how music does that. Frank Sinatra's music is definitely special.
72 years old ,and really enjoying your videos also the music ❤
Thanks for letting me know, Mary.❤️
Before breakfast there was cardio, and after breakfast there was a very nice walk and light stretching with Jules. Thank you so much, Jules, for the pleasure! Have a good day!
I love how you started off your morning with plenty of exercise.❤️
🤩
Well, today turned out to be the day we had to squeeze in only a short workout.
I love this one! Of course, I love the music so much! I also love the new moves. We appreciate you for continuing to work so hard to make new and interesting videos for us to exercise with. Thank you, thank you! Yo are absolutely the best!!!!
Thank you very much, Mary.❤️❤️❤️
I just found out this clips ! I love it ! ThankYou so much .
Thank you!
Good morning Jules☕...this notification made me smile 😊 Okay... getting up now...I am coming to walk with you 👟🚶♀️❤️
Was feeling sore from gardening so this being slower was just right, thanks x
Thank you...that music tho...so fun! A nice calm little surprise...and yet the workout was so good! I didn't think I'd feel the 'burn' in this 'gentle' video...but I did. Yeah!
Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed the music and the workout. Kurt Davies does a wonderful job of making the songs fun:)
This is great!
Thank you!
I’m glad this one is gentle; I’d sure miss Kurt’s music as I exercise. This is always a fun one for me. Love it!!!
He is definitely wonderful to listen to:)
Loved the music on this one! It really did fly by. This is a good one for when you're needing it to be slower and easier (coming back from being sick and not working out). Thanks!!
Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed it:)
I feel really happy doing these workouts, I love the songs :)
I'm glad to read that you're enjoying this song...I agree about liking the songs, too.
I'm exercesing in Mexico City. This is my favorite one because the music is beautiful and easy walk with you. I repeat 3 times everyday. Thanks !
Thanks so much for letting me know that you enjoy this one enough to do it 3x a day!
Multumesc, multumesc, multumesc! O idee minunata muzica! Am 63 de ani si pe aceasta muzica, timpul a zburat!
Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed this one. I have plenty more like this one under the 'gentle level' playlists.
Thank you for saving my life! It may seem like a crazy thing to say but it’s true. I did’t exercise until I found your channel. You make it fun and easy!
I am absolutely thrilled to know that you are enjoying moving along with me.❤️
I feel the same way
@@NinaTini Thanks for sharing that, Nina!
I love the music ❤ Thank you. For this gentle walk exercise.
Thanks for your feedback!
I'm 68 years old and have been looking for a low impact walking workout. I'm loving your videos! They are perfect for me to get me started! Every day, three weeks in and I'm seeing great results in how I feel and look! This video is my favorite! Thank you so much!😊
Hi Trish! Thanks so much for letting me know that you're enjoying my workouts and that you're noticing changes (that's always exciting!). Congrats for working out daily and for making your health and fitness a priority.💪 I hope you continue to enjoy the variety of workouts I create. Thanks also for subscribing!
Loved the playlist-could get into a 30 minute workout with this music! Thank you!!!
Thanks for the feedback, Ann. I'll check soon to see if the singer uploaded any new tracks recently so I can make a longer workout.
I'm a musician and this is all my favourite songs. I looked no further - started exercising immediately!!!

Oh wow! I'm gonna have fun with this workout channel. So glad I found you. And to think, I just searched "15 min workout" here in TH-cam, and your video was 1st to pop up.
I'm very happy to read that mine was the first one to pop up! That's great! Thanks as well for letting me know that you enjoyed this workout. If you liked this one, I think you'll enjoy the new upload I put up today (a disco workout). I hope you continue to have fun with my workouts:)
As soon as you started with Beyond the Sea, I knew this was going to be great; now one of my favorites! I love the music. It’s so hard to find great exercise videos with standards..thank you!
Thanks Susan! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
I spent almost 4 hours out in the hot Texas sun today. I wanted a gentle workout for this afternoon and this one was perfect. I was lip syncing along with the songs and it didn't feel like 15 minutes. Loved it!!
4 hours in the sun is a lot...especially in Texas! I haven't been, but will get there one day!
@@ImprovedHealth come in the spring. Temps are great. East TX and what we call The Hill Country are the most beautiful. That's north of Austin. BTW, I was golfing and in a golf cart with a fan and when we can, we park in the shade.
I’m 75 and I enjoyed it very much thank you will be visiting again soon

Thanks Norm...nice to see you're still working out here:)
Thanks so much for this! I'm 60 and quite out of shape. I could do this whole workout, and it really helps my confidence.

Yes thanks Kurt Davies, love the oldies!! Great routine to wake this senior up!!
He's definitely got a beautiful voice. Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed this one.
Thank You, Jules, for the session! I Love It! Love from Spain!
Gracias Lampidia!
Hello, Jules! It's warm here today, so I've split my exercises in half: this one, which is a bit slower, although I kicked certain moves up a notch while adhering to the music's beat. Later on, when it cools down, I'll search for something a bit more demanding. A nicely designed routine, great songs, a lovely set...and YOU!. Thank you!...Anastasia
A great idea to split the workouts up on a hot day. I’m glad you enjoyed this one!
Love your workouts… especially the music we know ones… thank you for all you do 🙏❤️
Thank you!
Thank you again! The variety you provide is outstanding! I can't wait to do this one❤
Thank you!
We did this favorite this evening!!
Found this after binging on milk chocolate the last couple days, (it doesn't take much). Yuck!, no more. Love this and the music is fantastic. Thanks for rescuing me!
It's definitely that time of the year still with leftover chocolate being around from Christmas (or around here anyway!).
Outstanding! Love this routine...thank you sooo much Jules 🤗
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for commenting, Helen.
The playlist for this session is fantastic! Loved the workout too…
Thank you! I keep hoping the singer comes out with more videos of the oldies but so far the new music he has put out is too slow. When he puts out more faster beat songs, I'll create another one.
We went a little easier on ourselves this evening with this one. Love the music!!!!!!!
Well that was fun!, can you please do a no talking one to country music, 90's and dirty dancing!
This such a fun walk. I caught myself snapping my fingers. 😁I can see this being an excellent mid-afternoon gentle energizer or adding light weights for some extra toning. Thanks Jules.
Thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed it...and I love that you were snapping your fingers (says to me that you really enjoyed it!).
Thank you! The perfect gentle workout for recovering from a hip issue.
I usually do your longer videos, but am recovering from bronchitis. Just starting to get my energy back. This was perfect. I will gradually build up to you normal length videos. Thank you. Really enjoy your workouts
Glad to read that you're on the mend, and also wise to start back slowly:)
Nice work out....didn't realize how uncoordinated I was at first! But it was fun with the music and good stretching too. thank you
I'm glad you had fun working out! The coordination will come with practice:)
I am recovering from a bad injury. Your video is perfect for people like me who are slowly getting back into exercise.
Thank you!
Thank you for letting me know that these workouts are doable for you as you recover from an injury. You'll find more at this level under the 'gentle level' playlists on my channel. Wishing you a quick recovery!
Today is a recovery day for me and this workout was perfect to warm up my tired muscles. It felt great, and I loved the music. Thanks for this and all your videos!
I'm glad to read that you enjoyed this one today. Thanks Randi.
Yes Jules, it's really me! I started this workout with mixed feelings - happy to be exercising again, and sad that this is so different from before. Then I read some of the comments below and realized I should be happy to do any exercise at all, and began to change my perspective. Thank you Jules for all level of your exercise videos 🏄♂🏌♀🏌♀⛹♀🏋♀💇👩🦽
One day a time, and you're right, it really is all about perspective and being thankful for what we CAN do.🫂
I'm 49 year old, weight last Tues when I started my journey was 24st 2. I've managed 5 mins of this workout and had to stop for a break, I'm so embarrassed, but also so impressed as it's a small step I'm taking and I know it'll lead to a much better me xx
I am so glad that you are here, Amanda. Welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) and categorize them all into the playlists. If you enjoyed this one, you can find plenty more at this same level under the 'gentle level' playlists. There is no need to be embarrassed...the wonderful thing is you can do these at home, work out at your own pace and take breaks as much as you need to. My suggestion is to try to come back to doing 5-10 minutes every day of the gentle level workouts. On days when you're not feeling motivated, just promise yourself you'll commit to 5 minutes. We all have to start somewhere, and the fact that you're starting is what is important. I truly hope to see more comments from you in the future and I'd love to read about your progress.
Brilliant workout, thanks Jules. Kurt is awesome.
Thanks Margaret, and I agree, his voice is amazing.
We did this one to end the day/week. I love this one so much!
Kurt’s voice definitely makes it enjoyable:)
Always enjoyable..thank you🙏🏼
I just found your videos. i am 63 and have a long way to go. So I hope we make this journey together. Im currently mobility challenged. But, i believe this can help. I used to do the Richard Simmons videos years ago. But,ni think i like yours better for me today. Thank you for doing this.

I also have a second channel where I upload seated workouts. I upload a lot of stretching routines from a chair which viewers from this channel also find helpful. I'll add the link for you in case you're interested: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
It's been a grim, dark, wet day here today, and this really helped! Color all over the place!!
I am SO glad this helped. Thanks for letting me know.
I have actually been following you for sometime now. ireally love your exercises especially because there's no talking! Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing that with me.💖
Need these gentle workouts. This one helps me sleep
I'm so glad that it helps. Exercising after dinner definitely helps with lowering blood sugar levels and helps us to sleep.
This routine works great as a cooldown after doing normal cardio, very relaxing too. I've been doing 2 videos/routines daily and can't see myself skipping them. Awesome work!
Thanks so much, Nick!
I LOVED that playlist, I was so rejuvenated! 🙂
Thanks for letting me know!
Beyond amazing. Coming down with a cold and this was just soooo perfect!
Thanks Charlene!
Jules, thank you so much for the songs on this exercise😀 I exercise with you and Kurt's songs make me so happy - sunshine to my soul and wings to my feet🤩🥰
Thanks so much for your lovely feedback. Kurt's voice definitely helps to make exercise more enjoyable:)
You're welcome, Jules!@@ImprovedHealth
I'm not a senior but I enjoyed this workout so much. It was a good way to end a killer leg day. The music, the general vibe, the stretches. I'll be back here after my next leg workout 🙂
Thanks so much for letting me know that you enjoyed it. Hopefully see you back in a few days:)
So much fun! Thank you!
Thanks Candace!
Thank you so much for this video 😊
I had to have at least one “Kurt fix” this week!! Love it!!!
Ah, nice!
7, 05 2023 Hi Jules, I am on the second workout today with you. I love the gentle ones, it seems in my exhausted state they work for me without giving me frustration. I love this even more in that you put music from the 50&60-ies, crooners and I love them. I love songs more than those tunes that are only instrumental like in your 10 minute gentle one from yesterday. At the same time, I suppose you aim these videos for a much older generation because you put the sitting stretches and that is a bit too much for me, for easiness, so I did them standing.
I have a clue that it might be my hormone treatment pills that give me this extreme tiredness at the period time. My best friend told me she had the same thing and she decided to put up with the hot flashes rather than this. Me, I cannot endure hot flashes, so I will go back to my doctor, when I have money, and discuss a possible change in the pills because perhaps these do not work for me well.
I am glad to read that you plan to check in with your doctor. It definitely sounds like something needs to change. I also want to say congrats for making it back for a second workout! Breaking up workouts is a great idea since it'll allow you to do more when you're struggling with energy.
@@ImprovedHealth Thank you Jules! I am collecting some will power to do a workout now.
@@42kellys Excellent!

I'm so glad! I often hope people stack the workouts to get in more personalized workout times.
You have such a fun way of teaching and leading, without commenting. You are very encouraging and I think chose perfect an overall body workout which is also relaxing. The music is great too!! I will be joining more often!! Thanks for a whimsical, healthy pre-bedtime workout (I know this must be for any time of day, but that's when I did it). I love love love the music and it really fit the exercises too, lol!!
