My daughter drives a car that is quite high, she has a little step stool that I use to get in. After 3 weeks of following chair exercises, I surprised her when she walked around the car to get the ladder and found me already seated. She asked me to show her. I climbed out and back in with no problem and had her grinning.
Oh my gosh, Susan!!! You have absolutely made my day with your comment. I am all smiles here thinking of how the workouts are helping you to get stronger. ABSOLUTELY wonderful!!! I'm so excited for you. And just think of how much stronger you're going to get! In case you haven't seen my second channel for chair workouts, I'll add it here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Brava!!
Excellent full body workout. Great for my bad knees and back.....thank you😊
Thanks Anita!
I love this workout...I have MS and you are really helping me
I'm so glad that these workouts are helping. Just so you know, I started a new channel catered specifically to chair workouts. I'll be uploading a new video every Thursday. These seated workouts will stay here but from now on, all new seated workouts will be uploaded to the new channel. Here's the link if you're interested: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Thank you so much for this fantastic upper body workout it really hit all the right spots. I was also admiring the two displays on either side of you. I actually went to stores expecting to find something similar... but I found nothing.. they are lovely 😍
I am happy to read the workout worked for you:). Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Will be doing with you tomorrow. Thanks
Thank you!
Thank you again more powet
Love it,,thanks ,😍
Thanks Ari!
I'm a 94 year old woman who lives mainly in a chair and it is very important for me to get exercise so that I can get stronger so I can maybe some day walk. So thank you very much for your exercises that I can do every day!
Hi Susannah, I am so happy to hear you are able to follow the classes and benefit. You will get stronger if you exercise every day. I highly encourage you to challenge yourself with using light weights for upper body if you are able and do as many sit to stands as you can to build strength in your legs. If you email me directly on my website, I could learn more about your limitations and then I could create a specific class which would work well for many others, too. I would love to help you on your journey.
@@ImprovedHealth I'm sorry, I can't find your website.
Tnx

Congrats for completing it:)
I have a sudden groin problem… that is why I’m here .. I’m wondering if is it ok to do the leg exercises? Thanks
The knee extensions should be fine but maybe avoid any lifting of the knee. If you notice a movement causes stress in the injured area, avoid that movement until you heal.
🙏
😁
Thank you thank you thank you !I’m a 50 year old Fibromyalgia, chronic migraine warrior. There are days I’m on a walker , motor scooter or just plain couch ridden. I’m in physical therapy but wanted to get my strength back by exercise. Most videos wear me out quickly . I actually got through your entire video. You have restored my confidence and now I hope my health.
Hi Tracy, I am thrilled to read these workouts are manageable for you. If you go to my playlists, I have lots of gentle seated workouts. I'll be creating more soon. As you get through them, please let me know if you have any requests for new videos. I am happy to make more for you to keep you motivated and to help you realize you can exercise to get stronger. Please touch base after trying more of the workouts. Thank you so much for writing a comment. Do what you can and be kind to yourself when you need a break.
I bought my daughter a Migracor migraine stopper for Christmas. It works every time! Save yourself from headaches and buy it!
I am blessed to have found this beautiful program. Today is my first day. I found out how much I am in need for this program. I paced😅 myself, my goal is to be able to “catch up “ to you and hopefully join more progressive. I am 87 and have let myself go.
Hi Dorothy! I am SO glad that you are here and wanting to get back to fitness. I think you're going to see massive changes with doing these daily. Welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) in both seated and standing workouts, and categorize them all into the playlists. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com
I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out. I'd love to hear about your progress down the road if you wish to share it:)
Thank you for doing this. I worked along with you and didn't realize how stiff I have become since our stay at home ban has been in place. I will be doing the exercises
everyday until I can get back to doing my thing. Again thank you. It was sent to me by my dear friend Gwen your mother in law. So thumbs up to you
Thank you so much, Elaine. I will be putting up some balance classes soon as well. If you'd like, let me know what type of class you are used to and I will do my best to create them for you.
UK 81yrs: yet another video popped up today! So good to have so many different ones. Thanks Jules ❤
This workout was really great. I just did it with my 95 year old dad, who really needs some movement and exercise. He was very focused, and he did very well. Thanks so much!
I’m thrilled to hear it worked well for him. If you go to the playlists, you will find more at that same level (gentle) that should also work. Thank you for commenting!
Good morning & thank you can we have some exercises for the facial muscles 🌹
I am 40 and have had some abdominal injuries and can not do very may exercises. I can do these, thank you:)♡
I am sorry to read about your abdominal injuries but I am happy to read this workout works for you:)
I love love this video. I’m watching from NC. I’m 65 and started doing yoga a few weeks ago. Some have talking before which takes up time. You talk during the exercise which is great. It took some searching but finally found an evening cool down before bed. And I found yours which I will continue every morning.
I hand had 3 neck surgeries so I band lots of neck, lower back, and leg pain. Your video is perfect. It gives a good all over workout and isn’t too strenuous for me. The I only one I can’t do is the few seconds of running so I just keep matching b
Sorry to be long. Just wanted you to know I’ve searched and found yours which will be part of my morning routine. Thank you for sharing and for making it free to ever. So many charge for them.
Sincerely
Donna Carroll

I'm in my late 30s and I did this workout and loved it. Very nice full body stretch. Thanks!
Thanks for letting me know, Randi. I'll add my other chair channel for you in case you haven't seen it. I now upload all new seated workouts to the other channel. youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
@@ImprovedHealth wonderful! I'll check it out!
I like the music! :) Where do you get it from? Great video :)
Oh gosh, this was one of my first videos. I can't remember which music I used.
Just when I was going to ask for lower back exercise, you included it! Do you have more to include lower back and also posture correction?
Hi! I have a posture video on this channel and my new channel. I'll include the link to the new channel if you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
A perfect exercise for me to start my day. Thank you.

This is a really good workout for the upper and lower body. I really took to heart the resistance pressure you suggested to put on our upper arms. In a few weeks, when I was using my arms, I felt really defined muscles that had gone dormant/become weak since my accident. Now they are on the way back thanks to your great instructions and workout. Thank you. I feel so much stronger.
I’m very happy to hear you are using weights...a lot of people underestimate the importance of strength training. Being strong is super important for fall prevention. Keep it up!
I enjoy all your classes. I am 84 yrs. old and walk with a cane
Thank you very much for letting me know that you're enjoying the workouts.💖
Thank you for your awesome video. Finally something I can keep up with. I didn't realize how stiff I was! Guess what ? I feel so much better! Please keep them coming!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I will have more up soon:)
The second workout, on chair, after a 🧍♀️ workout , both from this great channel.
Thanks 😊 Jules!🙏🌞🌷🌷
Good for you for doing the two workouts. I love how you and other viewers stack the workouts to create the best workout for yourselves.
My 90 years old mother enjoys your chair workout a lot, she requests this particular one almost everyday 😊
Thank you SO much for letting me know that she is enjoying this one. I am very happy about that. If she is looking for new ones, you can find them all categorized in the playlists and also on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com).

You'll see titles saying 'home', 'videos', 'playlists'. If you click on the 'playlists', you'll see videos put into different categories based on chair and standing exercise levels. Also, if you go to 'videos', you'll see every video I've created and uploaded. I'd like to ask you to PLEASE SUBSCRIBE by hitting the red 'subscribe' button and PLEASE hit the 'thumbs up' button if you liked the video.

All of the seated workouts that are on this channel will stay here. Here's the new channel: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Hi Jules,
I was lazy today. I know that I needed to exercise.😮😊😊
Good for you for still exercising today, Carol!

Reading prior comments, how wonderful you must feel to know how many people you're helping. Sharing with a friend who had recent cataract surgery so some exercise restrictions at present. Thank you for making something for everybody and every body.
I have always loved having jobs that allow me to make a difference. This YT channel definitely allows me to help in a small way and definitely makes me happy to be able to help. Thanks so much for sharing the videos, Chris.💖
Love your videos been doing them for two weeks after my consultant advised more movement and feeling improvement in my back muscles after 2 hip replacements and 2 revisions that broke my pelvis in two places, so thank you I can manage your chair exercises really well
I'm so glad these workouts work well for you, Molly. Congratulations on starting with exercise!
Thankyou Jules, You know You never Age on Your Workouts ! x
Oh goodness, that's a nice compliment. Thank you!
This is a fantastic workout in only 15 minutes (that went so fast). It was just what my shoulders needed because I could hear the rumbling! Importantly for me, the leg lifting made me tuck my tummy in. (I am glad I had the fan on, essential in the Thai climate). Thank you for such a complete set of exercises while just sitting. I will definitely repeat this programme.
How nice it would be to need to have a fan on...only a few more months of our Canadian winter...ulgh. Oh well, I did get out for a x-country ski yesterday so I do try to make the most of it!
Perfect session after shoveling snow and wrestling with some doors. Thank You. Charlie in Syracuse NY
Shoveling snow is a huge workout in itself! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed this workout:)
Great workout thank you very much. Just had a foot operation so try to slowly get back.
❤🙏
The key is consistency. You are awesome. Thank you so much. My new favorite coach. Been doing chair exercises and advanced to stand up dancing to YMCA. Took me back to my youth. I turn 66 on Saturday.
Thanks Karen! Wishing you a great week leading up to your birthday!
I am so thankful for your workouts of different lengths. Not only was I recovering from a brutal virus, I also had to go to my horse’s barn every day during our recent heat wave to cool him down. I couldn’t do that AND work out. So 10 min a few days ago, 15 minutes today. 20 minutes in a couple of days. Adding light weights to ones that have no weights, as I feel I have lost a lot of muscle mass. Your workouts are my favourites!
I'm so glad to read that you're feeling better, Doris. It's amazing what a virus can do to us and our energy levels. Starting back slowly and building up is a great way to get stronger after being unwell. Welcome back to feeling better!
I love fallowing you for chair exercises! Your voice is so easy to listen to. Your exercises are just what I need!!!!😊
Love your exercise videos. This one when feeling a little tired and your 35 min video when feeling ok. I'm 86 so very glad you are with me to keep me moving. Thank you very much.
Thanks so much for your comment, Joyce. In case you haven't seen my chair channel, I'll add the link for you. I now upload all of my new chair workouts to the other channel. youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Mom and I loved it. We did the beginners . And today we did this one. Mom is 80 I'm 54. Is very helpful and I'm able to help her and she's motivated and through the exercises she has more stamina. Thank you.❤
Thanks so much for sharing that with me. I'll share my other chair channel in case you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
I am trying to get more range of motion since my accident and surgery. I can't life my left arm (yet) even to side due to the fracture hummerus and ICD implanted a few weeks ago, but I felt good after though. I'm glad I found them.
I'm going to attach the link to all of the gentle seated workouts for you. I hope these will help. th-cam.com/play/PLsPoR5SimhuW4PN0SIwC5E1xa87Q9CmHV.html
Thank you. My mom has Parkinson's and she needed some exercise so we set it up (I am in Ireland and she is in America) so we could watch together and exercise via live video. It was just the right amt of time and not too difficult but enough to challenger her. Thanks!
What a great way to spend time with your mom. A tough time for us all with the restrictions but especially for those with family members far away. I’m happy to hear you’re able to do this together. I’ll be posting more walking videos soon. Thank you for your comment. Love Ireland btw! Gorgeous country.
I have been doing your exercises for a while now. This is the first time that I have commented. Your classes have been of great help to me. I love them! Thank you!
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. If you're enjoying the chair workouts, I just wanted to let you know that I started up a second channel specifically for chair workouts or workouts using a chair for support. I'll add the link for you so you'll have more videos to choose from: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Thank you for your wonderful stretch. Wish there was a way to do this on a long airplane journey. Not enough room. Thanks from Charlie in Syracuse New York.
Planes definitely don't have enough room! You could always do it in the waiting area before getting on the plane:)
Thank you for helping me get exercise. Had a full foot fusion back in august and still have no strength in my left leg. Your routines are just right for me
Thank you, Maggie. In case you haven't seen my new chair channel, I'll add it for you here: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Thank you Jules. I'm back daily, but not very strong yet on my left side! I broke my left humerus and shoulder in 3 places - who knew a body could take so long to heal??? I love these chair exercises!
Oh wow, 3 places! When I broke my collar bone, it took a long time to heal, too. I'm glad you're back and doing what you can. In case you haven't seen the new channel, I'll attach the link for you here: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Thanks so much for this chair exercise video! Have a great day!
Thanks Janine!
Thank you!! I really loved your class a definately will be bac k! I have Multiple Sclerosis and the length of the class was perfect
Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know that you are new here. Just so you know, I create 3 levels of seated workouts and categorize them in the playlists. I also recently launched a new channel dedicated to chair workouts where new uploads will go. I'll add the link here: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
I have had several back surgeries and have weakness in my legs. I have done 2 different workouts on this channel the last couple of days. The one I did yesterday had some strength training and the one I did today was basically cardio. These work great for me because I can't really do standing exercises without support. I hope that I can keep doing these.
I'm thrilled to hear the workouts worked for you. I am in the midst of creating more gentle classes and hope to have them uploaded soon. If you subscribe and hit the notifications button (the bell beside subscribe), you'll be notified when new videos are uploaded. I create videos for various levels of ability so just watch for the 'true beginner' or 'beginner' videos to see what suits you best. Thank you for your comment...truly appreciated.
@@ImprovedHealth I did subscribe but I will look for the notifications bell. I also need to work on my balance so I think that a video like that would be helpful also
@@marybethminton321 Hi, I actually have two classes that would likely be very suitable for you to work on your balance. If you go into my channel, underneath the channel name you'll see 'home' then 'videos' then 'playlists'. You can either scroll through the videos under 'videos' or look at the 'playlists'. Under the standing exercises (in the playlists), you'll see one called, 'The best standing leg and hip strengthening exercises for seniors' which will work on strength in your legs which in turn, helps your balance. I also have one class specifically for balance exercises which is great for beginners. For all of these exercises you can use a chair for assistance, or even two chairs if needed. Hope this helps!
@@ImprovedHealth l well check them out. Thanks!
I'm 69 and full of arthritis and I find these chair exercises so helpful. Thank you.
I'm so glad to know that you're finding these helpful. I'll share my second channel in case you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Awesome workout!! Thank you!! I’m 53, my Dr advised me yesterday 8/28/23 to do chair workout as I haven’t been able to properly workout due to old broken foot injury acting up. Searched got a lot of results, for some reason I was pulled to yours and I’m so happy!! 🥰 this is my first time doing a complete chair workout and I love it!! Looking forward to my next 15 workout.
Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know that you are new here. Just to help you out with navigating my channel, I'd like you to know that I create 3 levels of chair workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate levels). If you go to the playlists and scroll down, you'll see all of the chair workouts there. I also recently started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts. All of these workouts will stay on this channel, but all new chair workouts will upload to the new channel (here's the link: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts). Lastly, I also have a website where I upload all of the videos so you can also find them there (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com). I hope you enjoy the variety of workouts, and welcome to my channels!
Thank u. Even thou this says for seniors, I have chronic illnesses that make it difficult for me to be willing to get up and move around for a workout video. So I decided to try bed & chair exercises for these days.
I was worried that it would be too easy but it wasn't! It was exactly the amount of movement & exercise that I needed.
I figure some exercise is better than nothing, so thank u so much for this video!
Hi Joanna, I'm so glad to know that this workout was manageable and worked out well for you. Just so you know, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate). Depending on how you're feeling each day, you can pick and choose from the categories. If you're having a bad day, the gentle workouts might be great for getting in gentle movement. On days when you have more energy, the beginner and intermediate seated workouts might work well. If you can stand, the gentle standing workouts might also be suitable for you. I use different music in each video so once you find ones that you enjoy, you could save them to your favourites to use again. I hope that helps. You can find all of the workouts categorized in the playlists and on my website (www.improvedhealthforseniors.com).
Thank you
Thanks its a big help for me now everyday I follow Yuo Im62 yrs old na
Thank you for letting me know. I'll add my other seated channel in case you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
This is an excellent workout. I’ve been doing it for about a month since I am unable to be on my feet because of plantar fasciitis. I have started using two little one pound weights that I pick up off the floor the first time you bend over to do tricep work and then keep using until you go into stretches. I hope to build up to my three pound weights soon. Thank you!
Thanks for the comment! I am thrilled to hear the workout is helping and that you are using weights. If you go to the playlists, you’ll find more workouts to give you some variety.
@@ImprovedHealth as soon as my foot heals up I’m going back to the 30 minute with chair. And then, who knows?
Positive thinking:) Love it.
Some time has passed since I gave a comment but I have continued with my exercises. I do admit to trying other programs sometimes but I always return to Jules and this one in particular for the evening break. Having to concentrate on the movements is so good for clearing my mind of today's activities and news items. After many months of daily walks (weather permitting!) and "Walking/sitting at Home" exercises, my favorite is still the one I started with many months ago, "Mama Mia Walking Workout". It is so good in every respect, especially for seniors like me who struggle with the indignities of old age!
Hi Bryan, I am very happy to hear you are still exercising (whether it's with me or someone else). The exercises will always keep you younger:) And, we all age every day...as my mom reminded me once on my 40th birthday (when I was feeling old), we should be happy to get older since not everyone gets that opportunity. She's so right. I now don't mind getting older and feel blessed about it actually.
I'm 79 with lots of joint pains from arthritis. I'm beginning to feel better after doing these exercises each day.
I am SO glad to read that you are starting to feel better with exercising daily, Martha. I absolutely love reading about progress. Just so you know, I'll be making an announcement soon about future seated workouts. If you're subscribed and hit the bell beside 'subscribe', you'll get the notifications.
Good morning mam
Excellent exercise and very intelligently designed. I personally prefer to listen to your pleasant voice instead of music. Following your suggestion, I removed the cushion from the chair seat, although my bony buttocks don't like it :)
Thank you, Jules, for this session💛
Thanks for your feedback:)
@@ImprovedHealth 🙂
Thanks your exercises for seniors is really helpful aas I have lower backpain. God bless 🙏
I'm so glad to know that you're finding them beneficial. Thanks for letting me know. I also have a second channel dedicated to chair workouts. I'll add the link in case you're interested: www.youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Good i made it every morning tnx
Hi! I'm going to add the link to my new chair channel in case you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Gracias, desde argentina, soy Teresa, 65 años
Hola! Thank you for your comment, Teresa:)
Thank you. I’ll be 73 in a few days and considered fully disabled due to 3 knee surgeries and major spinal surgery from injuries. Only 20 years ago I was walking 4 miles easily but that was before the surgeries. Now, I’ve allowed myself to become obese and only able to walk 4 blocks. This is a dangerous health hazard that I put myself in and I decided 2 days ago that must be changed. I have altered my eating habits and started moving. This video was excellent and demonstrates how out of shape I have become. I will continue and hopefully advance to longer ones.
I am so, so glad to read that you have made the decision to make changes. Kudos to you for deciding to change your eating habits and start moving. Welcome to my channels, Vicki! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) in both seated and standing workouts, and categorize them all into the playlists. Just look for 'playlists' on the main page and scroll down to where you see the seated options. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
I now upload all new seated workouts to the new channel, along with workouts using the chair for support.
Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com
I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out. I am really excited for you and I hope you'll share your progress with me as the days and weeks go on.
@@ImprovedHealththank you so much for reading and taking the time to respond with helpful advice. I have a long way to go but I can’t afford to go backwards anymore. This isn’t an option anymore. It’s a necessity. My spinal surgery was an unsuccessful 3 disc lumbar surgery and now I have disc degeneration disease. My once flat tummy is a disgrace since it’s been surgically operated on twice. Doctors suggest more surgeries but I’m not a good candidate and recovery is gruesome. I believe by losing many pounds of excess weight and toning up will help much more in the same length of time as surgical recovery procedures.
Chair exercises are definitely best for me at this time since my knees aren’t able to handle the stress of added weight and endurance. My spine isn’t because of lack of core muscle strength. My lower tummy pulls on my spine. Basically, I have to get busy and stay focused on my goals and health.
@@Vicki1951 I am so glad to read that you're serious about making a change, Vicki. I definitely look forward to being here along the journey and cheering you on.😊
Thank you

Hi need advise. Is it advisable to do stretches before or after exercising. tq
Good question! Best to stretch after exercise since your muscles, ligaments, etc., are warmed up and ready for stretching.
Thank you very much❤
carrie Richardson Wilder great work out.
Thanks Carrie!
Thank you do much
I just started this video and another one. I'm hoping this will eventually help me lose weight. My sister told me about chair exercises and found this one. The others one I looked at. Just didn't like it, but this ones is great. God Bless
Thank you and welcome to my channel! Just to help you navigate the channel, I create 3 levels of workouts (gentle, beginner and intermediate) in both seated and standing workouts, and categorize them all into the playlists. Just look for 'playlists' on the main page and scroll down to where you see the seated options. I also started a second channel dedicated to chair workouts and will add the link for you here: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Lastly, I upload all of the workouts from both channels to my website at www.improvedhealthforseniors.com
I hope that helps and I hope you enjoy more of the workouts when you try them out.
Thanks do much
Thank you done
Thanks again my daily exercise
I'm adding my second channel just in case you haven't seen it: youtube.com/@ImprovedHealthChairWorkouts
Tha nk you Jules
This is kind of hard because I have one hand missing from birth. And I JUST HAD A STROKE 2 WEEKS AGO. THANKS HIS GRATE FOR ME!!
I am so sorry to hear about your stroke and I am so impressed you are back to exercise already! Your body will thank you for it. For weights, would you be able to wrap a wrist weight on your one arm so you can still work both arms?
Thank you
Impressive ❤
