It is an important note to do a warm-up before stretching exercises. We often don't remember this because stretching exercises seem gentle. As you say, Meg, occasional exercise every few days is a misconception. You need to exercise systematically, every day. It can be a different type of exercise each time. Thanks, Meg for this important workout.💛

I want to try this. I was in the hospital and had a non shoulder related surgery and got behind on my normal exercise routine. Then i exercised and over did it, and now i have shoulder pain on right shoulder. So im wanting some very mild exercise so i can get back to my normal routine where i use a rubber band and 5 and 10 pound weights. Im 65 years old also. 👍

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. It sounds like you've been through a lot lately, and I admire your determination to get back to your routine safely. I'm glad you found this workout and hope it helps you ease back into things gently. Remember, slow and steady wins the race! Take care of yourself. 💪😊

Thank you so much! You have provided some variability from some of the other good videos from AIM, and I will be able to add these to what I really need to make a daily habit of doing faithfully. I am having more and more difficulty looking to one side or another while riding in the car, and at almost 87 years of age, there are still a lot of things to see out there that I don’t want to miss when my son or daughter say, “Hey Mom, look over there!”

Hi I’ve been out of pocket, but hopefully back. I very much enjoy your videos,this one especially. I have had neck strain for a few weeks now. I’m wondering if comes from looking down at I pad while and books while reading. Is so will this help and what else do you suggest? Thanks again for all you do, and how you do it.

@AIMFitnessActivitiesInMotion 2 ай бұрын

Thank you for your kind words and for tuning in! Neck strain can be quite common, especially with prolonged periods of looking down at screens or books. This video may indeed offer some relief, focusing on gentle stretches and exercises to ease tension. Additionally, adjusting your reading posture and taking frequent breaks to stretch your neck and shoulders can be beneficial. Remember to listen to your body and consult with a healthcare professional if the strain persists. Wishing you a speedy recovery and continued enjoyment of our content!
