At 67 with severely arthritic knees and much injured tissue I really am thankful to find this simple lesson, my right foot was re-attatched back in the mid '90's and locks at 90 degrees so it impossible for me to squat without lifting the heel (no choice) but this short video of yours has me reassessing how I move my body, and working with it to regain strength I have lost in my legs, thank you very much!

I identified my tendency to “toe out” as the source of the sciatica I had learned from copying my father’s stance. I saw him have sciatica, a very few years later I had back spasms that resulted in sciatica. It still took me decades to really get it, but now I’m free of that pain. I frequently correct my stance, turning both feet to face where my focus is. That really gets to feel good, so less correction is needed over time, but it seems a lifelong task to overcome lifelong habits. I squat a lot, easily, feeling good. I keep my knees in line with my feet when squatting, whichever way they’re pointing. When squatting in a lunge, my rear knee is slightly flexed, in the line of my toes to my hip. I also work to keep my shoulders back, in line with hips over the arch of feet, skull balanced atop spine. Geometry, angles and lines describes how things work, including us. I’m 65.

In my 70s and play golf but felt I needed more work on flexibility so started doing 15 squats daily and at least 2 floor touches. My squats have gotten deeper (butt level with knees) and feel all the better for it. I do weight training and walking as well. Exercise to enjoy the retirement years!

Thanks for the information on modifications of the squat. Well into my forties I was still bodybuilding. At 5'10", I had a 46" chest, 17" upper arms, 22" quads, ans calves so big I couldn't wear cowboy boots. Was 200 pounds of solid muscle. Today, at 73, I've shrunken down to 150 pounds. Legs are like sticks. Chest is 38', arms are sticks as well. It's not easy growing old, and feeble. Balance is shot. Endurance is nonexistent. All that said, I will try to at least, to restore some strength to my slight frame. Thanks for the information and inspiration! 👍💪

There are a whole slew of videos of seniors who are reversing aging, really inspirational. What they show us is that our vitality, good health , energy don't have to dissipate as we grow older. As a person who was an athlete you have a built in advantage over others, giving you a better chance to reverse aging.

I taught this form of Qigong to the residents at Briarwood senior apartment complex, and Dry Creek assisted living facility. After moving to Tucson, Arizona I taught this form at the Armory Park senior citizen center from 2013-2017. The Mato form is built from Ba Duan Jin, and the Wah Nam forms of Qigong with a few minutes of standing in the horse stance which IS A HALF OR MORE SQUAT but you stand there as long as you can and work up till you can hold that pose for 5-10 minutes. That really builds up your legs.

I had total knee replacement surgery on each knee. One in 2020 and the other 2023. I'm 66 a I can do squats just fine. I have no problems getting down on the floor and getting up.

Biking is a great exercise. The falls can be potentially dangerous though. Stationary biking is a good option, but you don't get the scenery change like the beach paths.

Number 2 exercise, if not the co-leader, would be step-up and especially step-down reps. Squats are great for quad strength and general lower body joint flexibility. But prevention of falls requires strengthening of ankle, foot and knee muscles in particular. Step ups, not jump ups. Special focus on slow and controlled step-downs -- that is when most walking falls take place. Work up from about 12" to a starting height that has your thigh about parallel with the floor.
