This was hard on our brains! (And we thank you.) But we got better each time. On our 5th time, we did much better. 🤗 We will keep coming back to this one, for sure. Sometimes, we don’t feel like exercising. Then we ask ourselves, “ If Lauren is willing to come to our home today, then why can’t we show up, too?”. Thank You, Lauren! 💞 Chuck and Karon

Working on cognitive (executive skills) is one of the features that sets you and your team apart. Focusing on dexterity of fingers is brilliant. Before class I was unable to keep my left hand's, pinky, ring, middle fingers were jumping off the keyboard. Now, I am typing away. Alas, I must also give my medication a thumbs up. I will do my best to schedule around your classes at 11:00a CT thanks again for sending out the survey for preference of start times.

A great workout with lots of movements and patterns. I like that vocals were included as well as hand movements for tremors! Thank you, Lauren, so much for the instruction. Are there exercises to help with my left leg leg tremor? I haven't been using the site too long, but so far, I find it a great resource!!

@PowerforParkinsons 7 ай бұрын

Linda, thank you for your comment and for raising an important question. We do not have a specific video for leg tremors but any time you do exercises that involve your legs and cardio or high intensity exercise you should notice at least some temporary relief. If you have any trouble finding those videos we are happy to help. Keep us posted on your progress!

@laurenlewis6969 Жыл бұрын

Dulce - exercise is cumulative. You dont have to do it all in the same sitting or all at once to get the benefits. 10 minutes here, 20 minutes later, maybe another 10 minutes after that, all add up. You will find if you go gradually and add just a few more minutes a day you will improve your stamina. It will take time and thats just fine! 😀

Lauren really pushed everyone with this video. This is one that is good to revisit periodically. The bent elbows is part of PD and always good to have the reminder to extend your arms for bigger moves! Thanks for leaving another insightful comment!!

@laurenlewis6969 Жыл бұрын

Thanks Jon - I like that you had to concentrate. It tells me you are really working and not allowing yourself to go into "automatic". Realizing your are not stretching your arms or legs to their full range of motion is important. Keep working on really extending. It will help with strength and stride.

Phew!😅 Felt the cardio and the fun! I thought I’d have trouble with the knees and arm crosses or the jacks but actually the most challenging part was the marching while going through the finger touches!
