Margaret Martin, Physical Therapist says:

In today's video I discuss the most important exercise I see for the population (seniors and the fifty plus set) I serve in my clinical practice.

Kim Baker says:

Wow this is awesome Thankyou so much I will add this to my journey into feeling better in my 60’s and on .. Thankyou ❤️😊

WVmom63 says:

I am 63, due to an unexpected surgical problem I have muscle wasting and needed something to help rebuild muscle but wasn't quite ready for the gym.
I can tell this is what I needed.
Thank you so much.

I’m a brain cancer, right foot drop and right arm. Thanks Margaret!

Judy Johansen says:

How many repetitions before advancing to next level?

Ruth says:

Thank you so much for your wonderful work, Margaret! Your gentle approach is a great invitation to apply your videos immediately, like in my case, I feel such a difference.

Wanda Wolfe says:

Thank you, Margaret for these progressive exercises. Could you plan a small program of say, six or so different exercises that last for about twenty minutes duration that could easily done at home on a daily basis. Than you!

Bernee Martin says:

Thank you for this gradual progression of calf exercises so people can start at the level appropriate for them. For several years, I suffered with severe plantar fasciitis; so, I’m very careful now to stretch out that area multiple times per day. However, I was unaware that there was also an exercise that I could do to strengthen that area to prevent reoccurrence. I love to walk and hike and never want to be sidelined by such a painful condition again if there’s anything I can do to prevent it! 🥲🥾🌞💙

Vina Patel says:

Thank you for the great exercises for calf and hip muscles. Very helpful.

Jennie Chan says:

ahahahah

Mark Matson says:

I'm learning that doing simple exercises like this – say, 3 or 4 times a week – is super important for maintaining mobility in old age. I am still fit at 72 but can feel my tone slip if I don't MOVE enough!

Evamoore Moore says:
