Great video, and not only for seniors! I came across it accidentally but I found out it is a gem. Your explanations are appreciated and much helpful! Thank you!
I’m 76 and have been doing your exercises for almost daily about a month. It has definitely been helpful with my neck pain that would really be somewhat severe especially when I moved my neck up or down where the pain would travel to the top of my head. Hopefully this will be a help to others in my age group as well 😊
i may or may not be in my early 20s (lol) but I'm definitely in bad shape because i have numerous types of chronic pain and it is sometimes difficult to do more advanced exercises. so i come to exercises for seniors to help me in the meantime.
Hello, I watched your RU-vid video and noticed it ranks lower than others.I was analyzing your RU-vid channel. The Senior Centered PT struggling with subscribers and video views for monetization? SEO seems to be lacking, though your content is fantastic. Wondering why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is the insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 0/100%, ideally it should be 70%).if you'd like, I can assist you with improving it ,I can help you grow your RU-vid channel & your business. Let me know if you'd like my assistance. Best regards, Maruf (RU-vid video SEO Expert)
Had total hip replacement at 65 after a tragic tripping incident through garage thresh hold onto floor. Because of my really good health and age a full replacement was recommend. I am just over 1 month out of surgery with home PT. It has just ended and now I am visiting put on site….intake first meeting done and tomorrow I start. I am walking well using Walker…. just started on cane. Had a couple of drop with PT a with surgery side knee as It just kind of let go……I am unable to kick out my leg when seated or left leg in a March on my back. I can March walking,and my walking is great just getting used to feeling strong again. I was always very strong and full of energy and lifting and garden8ng and walking….very active so just trying to engage that muscle(s) for kick out action. Suggestions?
@@diannajohnston4558 I’m so sorry to hear about that incident and glad you’re through that and the surgery! While I always recommend speaking directly to your physical therapist, some exercises that I find effective for clients who are having difficulty with strength through full range of motion is doing isometric exercises- I would ask your PT what they think about that
Thank you for sharing this great video. I have been doing water walking in our pool after my normal morning walk with friends, I’m up to 20 minutes pool walking but want to add in more resistance training also and my husband said this morning he would like to join me in the evening, YAY, so this is perfect for senior beginners!
I have found sit ups to be a big help. I’ve had sciatica since 1991. I bought an attachment that clamps on to the bottom of a door to help me. You place your feet under it to aid in pulling yourself up. I do 100 sit-ups every morning. No more soft work outs like they run you through in physical therapy. This really works for me.
Great Video 👍 Thank You For Creating This. My 85 Year Young Grandma And I Have Started Going To The Aquatic Center And We Needed Some Exercises To Do. She's Trying To Gain Some Strength 😊
Thank you for your video. Some Dr say NO stretching especially no crossing legs. Why is there such a big difference of opinion? Also, is it bad to lift objects.
Yeah so there’s different practitioners which have different expertise which can lead to different opinions. Also, crossing the legs to stretch or find space is different than crossing the legs while sitting which can lead to increased tightness/pain. Ultimately, if a movement is causing you pain (no matter who recommends it) you should ditch that exercise/movement. I would say it’s just important to lift with good form whether someone has bursitis or not- so making sure bending ones legs, not rounding in the back, and breathing while lifting- hope that helps! And as always, check in with your provider before doing any activity 😊
This is a great question! And while I can’t say for sure because I’m not an expert in this area, I think there mats that people make/use for babies to help with development
Love your videos because this is very important stuff. I found your channel looking for how to relieve knee pain, and then I had to peruse all your vids. Hope you continue to provide this valuable information to us seniors. I love your dog's reactions!
My doctor said fluid around the bursa is the reason for hip bursitis and there is no way to get rid of the fluid. Why don't all these exercise instructors mention that. I have done every exercise in the book and NOTHING helps.
From what I understand the bursa is inflamed because the other muscles around it have decided to not work like they should. Therefore the tendon that floats over the bursa causes inflammation of the bursa. The exercises are to wake up the muscles that are not doing their job which will allow the bursa to heal. It took awhile to get here and it will take awhile to recover. If you completely stop then it will get worse. Good luck in your pursuit of health ♥️
Random side note putting rubber bands in the freezer actually helps them retain their stretchyness and gives them more longevity it does not make them snap!
Thanks for that information! The idea behind the metaphor is that a cold muscle will not move as well in terms of gaining flexibility so I’ll have to work on the specifics of the analogy!♥️
Pillows are one of those things that are very subjective. I personally like a softer pillow that isn’t memory foam, but I know people who swear by their memory foam. I’m sorry that’s not very helpful but I do like the sleep number classic true temp
