Very clear specific advice. I am 64, don’t have problems walking but still intend to implement strengthening of ankle, knee and hip. Thanks
I did similar knee stretches in rehab after my knee replacement. Good way to continue doing them.
So helpful, as always! Thank you. 😊
Always valuable information! Thank you, Will!
Thanks .Time is 6.34pm
Great Christmas gift, a reminder of some of the exercises we've done in earlier videos, plus a move for the inner range quads. Thanks very much, Will! 🎄 👍 🥰
Great demonstration. All parts of leg covered. Need these to get me walking. Thanks Will.
Thank you so much! 😊
The exercise of connecting the mind body connection by tightening the quad was the one I really needed. I have MS and as I did the exercises I couldn’t FEEL the tightening effort of my right quadriceps! After repeated practice of that exercise, I finally felt it! Thank you so much!
Thanks, Mr Will
Thank you so much Sir.❤
Will – May you and yours have a Blessed Christmas and a Most Happy and Prosperous New Year.
May We All Be Blessed, Every-One…!
Hi Will – just wondering what your view is of the treatment in this video….https://www.youtube.com/shorts/CGtwjaAjZzc Is it even available in many countries? Thank you and merry Xmas.
It's wonderful to find physical therapy exercises aimed at mature adults 50+.
I cannot find the answer anywhere online (including your channel) to my problem of difficulty completely recovering from grade 1 turf toe from chronic repetitive overuse — walking too much! I have always been a walker but after 2 total hip replacements (5 years apart 2018 and 2022), I've gotten terribly out of shape (I'm 76).
From June 1, 2024 to July 20, 2024 I upped my daily steps to a minimum of 2000 per day, averaging 3200 and some days as high as 4200. By the end of July I became aware of pain in BOTH big toe joints as well as tenderness on the bottom of foot under 2nd to 5th MPT joints — is it possible to have turf toe in all 5 MTP joints? I quit walking any more than I had to to rest feet and allow turf toe to heal. I switched to flat-footed cardio such as ellipticals (both recumbent and standing) and aqua jogging in deep water. As long as I do not hyperextend my toes by too much walking I'm OK, but my days of using my cross country ski exercise machine are over.
You demo the full range of motion heel raise in stocking feet but that is too stressful for my feet. Even wearing shoes, this exercise made my forefoot and toes ache. Sigh. Can you please do a video on recovering from grade 1 turf toe?
Thankyou so much will , helpful for elders and my physiotherapy practice.❤❤
Sir I have pain in right backside in left side is stiff and and right I'm having paun
I have pain in both knees. I can walk without difficulty but have lots of pain while going down the stairs. I also cannot sit in a low chair as it is difficult to get up. Can I still do these exercises. I am 73 years old.
