I'm 65yo, 5'11, 310 pounds and starting to feel fearful of falling. I tripped at my office desk last year: my hand hit the desk and my head hit my hand, somewhat 'softening' the damage, I suppose, but still had a black eye for two weeks. I'm now uber-conscious of mindful walking, which seems to have resulted in walking more slowly (so much for cardio!) and more hunched over -- I can feel myself aging! Your video spoke to me, as we approach the new year, thinking of the possibility of improvement by this time next year.
man, you shouldn't be working in an office at your age. you deserve to be out in the wilderness sniffing flowers like old people like to do. You can do all these exercises with like, a tree or something outside. While the sun sets. It's so much better than an office. Imagine if you got a concussion and died with the office being the last place you remember. That would fucking suck. I totally get what you mean by being able to feel yourself aging. slow walking is good, but working slowly on your shoulder chest and back muscles will defs help with the hunching. Apply for a bunch of credit cards and take care of yourself. Looking forward to the update next year. Stay safe and go lift a box.
The pain is coming either way. Sad but true. It seems to me that choosing a pain that improves implies a sense of control and is thereby empowering. Putting hopeful energy out to you.
For anyone 50 or older this is one of your better videos. Balance/strength work becomes more important every year from the age of 50. And is not a set and forget, should be reinvented and reworked every couple of years. Merry Christmas to all. ❤❤❤🎅🎅🎅
Grip Strength FTW! I finally got into consistent workouts including weight training 10 years and 125# ago. Now At 67 I hex-carry 135# (my current weight) several times a week as well as 50# single farmer carry and DL180 (so far). All the things you showed today are included in my pre-workout warmup and it is worth it to take the time to do each movement do correctly as you always emphasize. Explosive moves are still my weak point so I work on that a lot - I want to be stronger and better every year instead of fading as so many of my friends seem to be accepting. Today you showed me a new idea for the agility ladder; I'll have to slow it down and make sure I get it right - but looks like a fun one to add. Thanks for always great content!
LOVE your hard work and consistency paying off Susan. And I love that you're focusing on working on those "weaker" links! It will continue to help you improve and grow! Soooo in terms of the agility ladder, sharing this very original RS video that is almost a decade old now with some ideas! th-cam.com/video/67XP-AekUoA/w-d-xo.html
@@redefiningstrengthOC Cori, although I believe that grip strength is a very good indicator to assess the risk of all cause mortality (ACM) I don't think that training for a stronger grip has any impact in your longevity. You can train your grip for a year with all kind of dedicated exercises and at the end of that period your hands and forearms will be changed, but not the rest of you and your risk of ACM will be the same.
thank you for your evidence based education! It means so much to see a trainer who focuses on facts rather than hype and just pure asthetics (but let's be real, your shoulders make me swooooon). Keep it up!
Well done and well selected lesson. I already do most of these, but I was impressed by the presentation! (The detailed instruction for the step-ups was pure gold.)
Everything you said here is true! All the moves you showed will improve core stability and so functional. Just walking with kettle bells the way you showed will be helpful just carrying groceries and stuff. Awesome tips for reactionary, coordination and all around focus! Thank you.
In 2023, I need to go back to some of my tried and true TH-cam fitness channels; this one is at the top of that list!! This video affirms some stuff I've been doing for myself and my athletes, and it gives me some great ideas for the future. I'll be sharing with my mom (71) and my wife. [Hopefully my mom will try some and encourage my dad - battling cancer, like me - to do the same. Hopefully, my Mrs. will join me in doing some of these as she tries to stick with her new year's resolution to get fit so she can start dancing again!] Bless you, Cory, and Happy New Year!
This makes me quantify the dollars we are spending on F45 per month.. We are in our early 60s but it's the best thing we ever did as all the things you mention here we do every week one way or another.. thanks and Happy New 2023
Thank you for this perspective. It's ironic that folks are encouraged to take up slower, gentler forms of exercise as they age but that could be counterproductive. I've entered my fifties and am realizing that there's going to come a day I'll have to do the heavy lifting myself... I'm on it!
Good video. I've also been doing dead hangs from a pull up bar. Other videos say that this is really beneficial for overall health as well. Just something to consider.
Dead hangs are a great move because they work on grip strength, which is so key. However, I find they are a more challenging move than many give them credit for so not as easy to start with as carries :-) But 100% include them if and when you are able. They are fabulous!
I too am 65 and have always looked after my health so I can have a healthy life even as I’m ageing. After seeing your videos I feel that I should probably have a more structured exercise plan. You mentioned that as we age we loss our appetite thank you for explaining this I feel a little better now that you have explained that. I haven’t had much of an appetite.Although when I do eat it’s not junk food I garden I ride my horse I took a tumble off my horse last year and my confidence took a hit but I’m getting it back slowly I have great people around me helping me. I feel I need to get stronger I have a set of weights 2kilo 4kilos and a 5kilo and I try to lift them at night before my shower I’m thinking I need more exercise so I’m going to follow a few of the things that you talk about in your videos And if you have any advice on supplements I would appreciate some advice Thank you 🙏🏻
This is a really good video to help in maintaining our body while the body is able and functioning. I also hope that people prepare themselves for what comes after the body dies. After all, we are eternal beings, body, soul and spirit, and go on living eternally when these bodies die. It's the way God made us. Knowing Him is the greatest thing we have to do while we're here.
Great work on this video! Informative and I like your approach and personality - following now, will check out some of your other videos for sure. Thanks!
Very helpful… thank you! Have you made a video on how to create a home gym with necessary equipment for your suggested overall workouts?? I have basic equipment but I don’t have many things that you use on many of your videos and I’d like to expand. A tutorial on what to purchase and how to set up a home gym would be fabulous. Merry Christmas.🎄
Interesting idea! BUT my annoying answer to you is that you can also make ANYTHING work. I even have bodyweight videos if you have no tools whatsoever. The key is designing workouts based on our needs and goals and creating progression and challenge in different ways. Here are a couple of bodyweight ideas - th-cam.com/video/BdpJYFr6ygQ/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/_ghSgBb02MY/w-d-xo.html
@@redefiningstrengthOC thank you. I understand your reply and it makes sense. But for those of us that are interested in creating a home gym I still think it would be a great idea and appreciated to make a video (some day) on how to build a home gym. Not crazy expensive .. but moderate items, some basic equipment from dumbbells to bands etc to have for more then body weight movements. Just a thought. Thank you for all you do. You are an exceptional teacher 🙏
Peri menopause sucks and I am a recovering over-exerciser. But once my estrogen tanked and I couldn’t recover properly, I felt lost. At 48, what can I do slowly to reincorporate strength training after becoming out of shape over the past 8 months from hormones WITHOUT inflammation and hurting myself from exercising? Let’s be honest, after major hormonal fluctuations, our bodies are different.
Out of all the vids I've watched over the last several years, EYE feel that you provide the best 'everything'. I love how you explain the why's and wherefores, the how- to's and logicality, of all of the movements you teach us. Common sense that is quickly understood even by us old fogies. I love it. I love you -- of course as much as is possible to non-romantically love a peep who you only know through a video, lol, and I SO wish it were possible to have you for a personal trainer -- and I'm not into having personal trainers! I choose you anyway, hahaha! Because you really enrich the experience of 'the workout' and indeed, our lives. All that said, I want to let you know that I am grateful beyond measure that even though I can't have you as my personal trainer, I can reap benefits because I CAN reach out and touch the monitor screen, punch keys and voila! I have eigh 'virtual' form of you training me as it were. Rock on chica and have an abundantly blessed week.
Love this! Would driving up the glute slower help focus on improving strength there and avoid knee pain with the step up? Or is it more important to focus on the "tripod balance" in the other foot? Thank you so much! Happy Holidays🌲
Lots of cues may help depending on the compensations or imbalances you have. I like the top down approach because it can help if you struggle with activation.
I do the Flexbar daily to prevent tennis and golfers elbow and then also work grip strength. I play tennis about 3 hours a week and I think that it's a sport that provides a lot of good stuff: explosiveness, timing and kinetic chain in the serve. Speed, endurance, HIIT, having to run backwards, change direction, jump for an overhead and quick reaction time at the net, particularly in doubles. Unfortunately it's often asymmetric exercise.
Do you have videos of exercises for people with chronic knee pain and possible chronic shoulder pain? You mentioned step ups are important in this video. Looking for more though.
Love the whole video, love all the tips, I wish that I could give it one hundred likes. As an English teacher though, essentially is really a binary thing, it either is or it isn't, so there's no "most" and "very". Keep up the excellent videos!
Please please... necesito la traducción al español...es muy interesante tu información...pienso q conoces mucho y eres muy honesta. Traducido o doblado al español please please. Gracias..
You will not include every exercise in my limited fitness routine. 🙂 Go me go me!! The step ups are my challenge with my left knee and its unpredictable parts. The sled is my only other toy. Landmine covers the push and pull upperbody and abs. Thanks!
Digestive enzymes may help you absorb food better, at 69 (I also take estrogen) I can still build muscle. Jumping is great, step ups are the best! Lining up your knee with the foot (lining up the tendons) helps.
You are what you eat. Your diet impacts your health. Lower stress, reduce obesity and more exercise are key to a healthy life. Obesity in children and adults is rising across the world. Fast food and sugary drinks are contributing to the problem of poor health and obesity. Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly. Reduce or ELIMINATE cows milk, eggs, cheese and meat. Eat more salad greens, beans, fruit and vegetables. Eliminate fast food, snacks like cookies, cakes, chips, and sugary drinks and juices. Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly. Regular exercise will help you sleep better. Yoga is a great stress reducer. Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch. Get off the phone, ipad or video game. A variety of stretching and other exercises help with increased mobility. Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun. Every city should be a bicycle city. Speak up for bicycles in your community
My philosophy too, almost. I went vegan in 1984 then lapsed to vegetarian in 2004 when Plamil stopped producing their soya milk. I have always got around by bike, even commuting 65 miles a day for a time. Why people are prepared to waste their time sat in traffic is a mystery to me yet they see nothing ridiculous about taking a 2 ton overcoat with them for a journey that would be quicker by bike and probably add the same amount to their life expectancy. They are forever moaning about the price of gas too!!!
We need to hang for the best grip strength because that’s the direction that hands and joints need to get strengthened in - monkeys hang all day we need to hang more (Around five minutes a day cumulative even if your feet are on the ground)
TO IMPROVE BALANCE: (I read this in a book by a brain expert. Sorry, can't remember the book or the scientist; was years ago.) To improve balance you need to WAKE UP THE FOOT MAPS IN YOUR BRAIN. To do this he said to NOT LOOK AT YOUR FEET WHEN YOU WALK DOWN STAIRS. I did that and my balance increased a lot; not just a little.
If my home workout space is really only set up for dumbbells and not cables/straps, is the renegade row a decent stand-in for anti-rotational row and/or rotational chest press? Why or why not?
This video is one of only a few talking about this. It's mostly for younger generation and somewhat healthy individuals. I'm 68 have problems with wrists and thumbs. Had surgery on right but it's not 100%. I have a spinal cord stimulator in lower back which I don't what to mess up I do go to a gym and workout carefully. I do all body parts and watch my nutrition. Semi vegetarian. If you want to live you must find the fire to go do it. Anything is better than being a couch potato. God Bless.
Girl thank you for what you do it's really helped me a lot. I have been doing that hybrid tricep pull exercise with the dumbbells the one that works the 3 heads. That one is very effective and has helped me a lot I have massive massive gains in my tricep area. the shoulder exercises the where you use the shrug the shoulder blade shrug .. it's the one where you do a bent over shrug instead of a row , the one where you do the snow angels , then theirs the shoulder one i think the video is called 5 best shoulder exercises . You use a lot of bands in that one . Those also have helped me get gains after just doing them 2 or 3 times . Thank you . Can you do content on the three body types ecto Endo and meso ? Thanks again . I found you a month ago , but this is my first comment and I subscribed approx 2 weeks ago . Hehe nice meeting you .
Thank you! So glad the videos have helped. If you are looking to improve your muscle gains specifically, also wanted to share this - redefiningstrength.com/9-tips-for-faster-muscle-growth/
I have some great videos on general knee aches and pains already including this one. But hope you get checked out as well to know more about what is causing your pain! th-cam.com/video/OqzEsAnTsbY/w-d-xo.html
I am thinking the same thing...do I get a step up/plyo box or a cardio stepper with the risers. I think the stepper with risers will give me more exercise options and more stability but what do I know?
Can I do the #2 exercise the back row with dumbbells? I don't have a barbell I work out at home I hope one day I can get a barbell but I just have my dumbbells and kettlebells right now
I'm pretty sure doing alternating renegade rows with dumbbells in a plank position would serve a similar function, especially if you really focus on keeping your core stable and preventing any rotation. I don't have barbells either, or any of that cable equipment.
You can for sure do a unilateral dumbbell, band or cable row and see great benefits! And yes, the renegade row, while a very tough move can be even more core intensive.
@@redefiningstrengthOC awesome perfect for now dumbbells and kettlebells are my only equipment but I hope in the future I can get a barbell that would be awesome 💪🏻🏋️
@@oksanakaido8437 in the plank position? Oh that sounds challenging for me I should be doing planks but I always skip those because I don't enjoy them but I really need to start doing planks I'll try that with dumbbells that sounds very challenging but I need to challenge my body
Great video! Though I can't help but cringe at the recommendation of improving grip strength as a means of increasing longevity. Correlation. Not causation.
I get your perspective. The reason I don't recommend fancy tools to increase grip strength but instead the weighted movements and carries is because I believe grip strength is such a great indicator because it shows overall muscle mass retention to a great extent. These other lifts promote that while building grip strength And grip strength is key to lifting more soooo working on that allows for building the functional strength in other movements. :-)
@@redefiningstrengthOC Touché. If you had said as much in your video, I wouldn't have made the snarky comment (or maybe you did and I missed it? If so, my bad.) It's just a pet peeve of mine when people attribute increased longevity to sheer grip strength (when in reality, in the referenced studies, grip strength was just one emerging/resulting indicator of people with higher vitality/longevity.) Siim Land was notorious for this goof for a little while. He read a couple of studies that correlated grip strength to longevity, and his conclusions and recommendations were simply to incorporate grip training into one's regimen. It's a pretty basic scientific faux pas. Anyway, digging the content! Keep up the good work :-)
To little to late I will be 60 in September feel it is To late to do anything now I just don't seem to be able to stick to any program Also very over weight
While I like the clip, exercises and explainations, I feel that you are confusing correlation and causality when it comes to the scientific evidence for grip strength as an indicator of health. Grip strength doesn’t lead to a longer health- or lifespan (causality), but people who are more physically active tend to have longer healthspan and higher grip strength (correlation). So focusing on grip strength will NOT extend your lifespan.

I'm 65yo, 5'11, 310 pounds and starting to feel fearful of falling. I tripped at my office desk last year: my hand hit the desk and my head hit my hand, somewhat 'softening' the damage, I suppose, but still had a black eye for two weeks. I'm now uber-conscious of mindful walking, which seems to have resulted in walking more slowly (so much for cardio!) and more hunched over -- I can feel myself aging! Your video spoke to me, as we approach the new year, thinking of the possibility of improvement by this time next year.
man, you shouldn't be working in an office at your age. you deserve to be out in the wilderness sniffing flowers like old people like to do. You can do all these exercises with like, a tree or something outside. While the sun sets. It's so much better than an office. Imagine if you got a concussion and died with the office being the last place you remember. That would fucking suck. I totally get what you mean by being able to feel yourself aging. slow walking is good, but working slowly on your shoulder chest and back muscles will defs help with the hunching. Apply for a bunch of credit cards and take care of yourself. Looking forward to the update next year. Stay safe and go lift a box.

Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly.
Reduce or ELIMINATE cows milk, eggs, cheese and meat. Eat more salad greens, beans, fruit and vegetables. Eliminate fast food, snacks like cookies, cakes, chips, and sugary drinks and juices.
Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly.
Regular exercise will help you sleep better. Yoga is a great stress reducer.
Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch. Get off the phone, ipad or video game.
A variety of stretching and other exercises help with increased mobility.
Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun.
Every city should be a bicycle city.
Speak up for bicycles in your community
My philosophy too, almost. I went vegan in 1984 then lapsed to vegetarian in 2004 when Plamil stopped producing their soya milk. I have always got around by bike, even commuting 65 miles a day for a time. Why people are prepared to waste their time sat in traffic is a mystery to me yet they see nothing ridiculous about taking a 2 ton overcoat with them for a journey that would be quicker by bike and probably add the same amount to their life expectancy. They are forever moaning about the price of gas too!!!

We need to hang for the best grip strength because that’s the direction that hands and joints need to get strengthened in - monkeys hang all day we need to hang more (Around five minutes a day cumulative even if your feet are on the ground)
TO IMPROVE BALANCE: (I read this in a book by a brain expert. Sorry, can't remember the book or the scientist; was years ago.) To improve balance you need to WAKE UP THE FOOT MAPS IN YOUR BRAIN. To do this he said to NOT LOOK AT YOUR FEET WHEN YOU WALK DOWN STAIRS. I did that and my balance increased a lot; not just a little.
If my home workout space is really only set up for dumbbells and not cables/straps, is the renegade row a decent stand-in for anti-rotational row and/or rotational chest press? Why or why not?
very nice video!
Brilliant 👌
This video is one of only a few talking about this. It's mostly for younger generation and somewhat healthy individuals. I'm 68 have problems with wrists and thumbs. Had surgery on right but it's not 100%. I have a spinal cord stimulator in lower back which I don't what to mess up
I do go to a gym and workout carefully. I do all body parts and watch my nutrition. Semi vegetarian. If you want to live you must find the fire to go do it. Anything is better than being a couch potato. God Bless.
Love that you're meeting yourself where you are at to do what you can to move forward! Always about finding ways to match our needs and goals!
Yo quiero un cuarto en mi casa con todo ese equipo de gym!!!
Girl thank you for what you do it's really helped me a lot. I have been doing that hybrid tricep pull exercise with the dumbbells the one that works the 3
heads. That one is very effective and has helped me a lot I have massive massive gains in my tricep area. the shoulder exercises the where you use the shrug the shoulder blade shrug .. it's the one where you do a bent over shrug instead of a row , the one where you do the snow angels , then theirs the shoulder one i think the video is called 5 best shoulder exercises . You use a lot of bands in that one . Those also have helped me get gains after just doing them 2 or 3 times . Thank you . Can you do content on the three body types ecto Endo and meso ? Thanks again . I found you a month ago , but this is my first comment and I subscribed approx 2 weeks ago . Hehe nice meeting you .
Thank you! So glad the videos have helped. If you are looking to improve your muscle gains specifically, also wanted to share this - redefiningstrength.com/9-tips-for-faster-muscle-growth/
How much protein do you eat in a day? I can't seem to gain muscle although I'm lifting heavy, I'm 54, female,
Thank you Cori for being an inspirational leader of physical & mental strength ❤ xo Jesse ✌️
Maybe I'll try them tomorrow 🤔 🎄
You are sow awesome
Locked/stuck knees vid please.
I have some great videos on general knee aches and pains already including this one. But hope you get checked out as well to know more about what is causing your pain! th-cam.com/video/OqzEsAnTsbY/w-d-xo.html
This was great. I'm 56 and I do all of these, except for the carrying. I'm going to incorporate that into my weekly routine, stat!
Excellent. I have been thinking of getting a jump/step box. I use kettlebells for the ballistic moves and carries for cross-body stabilization.
I am thinking the same thing...do I get a step up/plyo box or a cardio stepper with the risers. I think the stepper with risers will give me more exercise options and more stability but what do I know?
I love my plyo box. It’s probably my favorite piece of exercise gear. So many uses!
Can I do the #2 exercise the back row with dumbbells? I don't have a barbell I work out at home I hope one day I can get a barbell but I just have my dumbbells and kettlebells right now
I'm pretty sure doing alternating renegade rows with dumbbells in a plank position would serve a similar function, especially if you really focus on keeping your core stable and preventing any rotation. I don't have barbells either, or any of that cable equipment.
You can for sure do a unilateral dumbbell, band or cable row and see great benefits! And yes, the renegade row, while a very tough move can be even more core intensive.
@@redefiningstrengthOC awesome perfect for now dumbbells and kettlebells are my only equipment but I hope in the future I can get a barbell that would be awesome 💪🏻🏋️
@@oksanakaido8437 in the plank position? Oh that sounds challenging for me I should be doing planks but I always skip those because I don't enjoy them but I really need to start doing planks I'll try that with dumbbells that sounds very challenging but I need to challenge my body
brava!! 👏👏👍

This is all good. But not if you have RA, Fibromyalgia and also OA of one ankle!
Great video! Though I can't help but cringe at the recommendation of improving grip strength as a means of increasing longevity. Correlation. Not causation.
I get your perspective. The reason I don't recommend fancy tools to increase grip strength but instead the weighted movements and carries is because I believe grip strength is such a great indicator because it shows overall muscle mass retention to a great extent. These other lifts promote that while building grip strength And grip strength is key to lifting more soooo working on that allows for building the functional strength in other movements. :-)
@@redefiningstrengthOC Touché. If you had said as much in your video, I wouldn't have made the snarky comment (or maybe you did and I missed it? If so, my bad.)
It's just a pet peeve of mine when people attribute increased longevity to sheer grip strength (when in reality, in the referenced studies, grip strength was just one emerging/resulting indicator of people with higher vitality/longevity.)
Siim Land was notorious for this goof for a little while. He read a couple of studies that correlated grip strength to longevity, and his conclusions and recommendations were simply to incorporate grip training into one's regimen. It's a pretty basic scientific faux pas.
Anyway, digging the content! Keep up the good work :-)

Thank you! I see you are wearing ASICS. What are the specific name of yours?
To little to late I will be 60 in September feel it is
To late to do anything now
I just don't seem to be able to stick to any program
Also very over weight
If you have pets you have a lot of practice recovering from almost tripping 😁
🙏
While I like the clip, exercises and explainations, I feel that you are confusing correlation and causality when it comes to the scientific evidence for grip strength as an indicator of health.
Grip strength doesn’t lead to a longer health- or lifespan (causality), but people who are more physically active tend to have longer healthspan and higher grip strength (correlation). So focusing on grip strength will NOT extend your lifespan.
