The Kitchen Table

Do you follow exercise videos on youtube?

3 years ago

I have followed a few over the years, but I've found one I really like. It's called SeniorShape Fitness. The videos are made by a lovely 45-year old woman, Lauren, and her husband who does the filming. They have made 166 videos of a wide variety and time length, so there's something for everyone. She has strength, barre, weights, balance, walking, chair, and more. She's very pleasant, and the workouts are geared for seniors--not too hard, nor too easy.

Lauren recently got a youtube award for having 100,000 subscribers. Anyone else following her videos?

I have to get back into it. I go to exercise classes twice/week.

I've done Fit with Rick cardio. He's a hotiet, and even Elliott likes watching him.

I used to but need to get back into it. Was doing barre regularly but kept getting massive cramps from my hips to my feet so I gave up on it.

We recently bought the 8X12 Sunglo from Costco. I didn't have time to put it togather so I had a friend who is a carpenter build it. It took him 25 hours to get it done. The written instructions are hard to follow but the video was better. He had his wife help him thru the whole project and said it would have been hard with out a second person. For the electric it came with a plug for the 220 but he put a regular 220 outlet in. The outside of the end pieces are hard to bend into place by what the video shows but if you do it like the book says it's easier. The greenhouse is very nice and is very sturdy.

Hmm, interesting. I'm all for the tiny house movement, but anyone who's so snotty about building a nice small house (mini-mcmansions!) would have more credibility if she weren't touting those particular constructions. I'm sorry, but stapling rusty tin cans on the outside of your house is just trashy--it's been around a loooong time (not a new brilliant idea) and it's the sort of thing that caused municipalities to come up with all the restrictions that make it so hard to build a tiny house most places. If I were anti-tiny-house, I'd love that video as ammunition for why we should keep the old laws and not allow them.

Chemocurl, Do you use Firefox? What resolution is your screen? The reason I ask is because I styled for my 1080p screen, then went to bed and turned on my lower resolution bedroom computer to find it didn't display very well. I attempted to modify it to work there too and I think it's okay but it's very much untested. Sorta "beta" I suppose. :) The "Stylish" extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ And this "style": https://userstyles.org/styles/98423/gardenweb No guarantees but it's just as easy to remove as to add. :) Richard

I'll check that out, Joann. Thanks. Gee, I don't like that word "elderly!" I'm a senior but don't feel "elderly."

Kathsgrdn, I've never done barre but must try it. Try something else if you get cramps, or stretch out before the workout.

I did some Hasfit, some random yoga, some Team Body Project and started running via couch to 5k when we were locked down but I go to live classes again now. Some of my older acquaintances did Leslie Sanson videos but she is rather irritating.

I've done both Leslie Sansone's walking programs as well as Adriene's yoga videos. It's good to switch around so we don't get bored.

I do! I jump around from person to person and different kinds of workouts so it doesn‘t get boring. Lately I’ve been focusing on firming up the ol’ batwings - the flabby under side of the arm. It’s working!

I did some indoor walking program, i think her name was Leslie Sansone. It was good but like all exercise programs, i gave up after awhile. I did Jane Fonda videos a long, long time ago. It got so boring doing the same thing over and over.

I follow BodyFit by Amy, Fitness with PJ (she is a little obnoxious and not for everyone, but I like the workouts), Keep the Adventure Alive with Alyssa Kuhn, and just started Forever Yoga with Susannah. I work out every morning with one or more of them. I'm trying to use heavier weights and more impact to try to help my bones. I'll be watching this thread for more ideas.

Jasdip posted the fit Rick video and I book marked it...just never got around to watching it. I usually watch movies while I'm on the gym machines. I just purchased "Crazy Rich Asians, & "Nobody".
