I still do the exercises; got my book in 1981.
I too was going to post that piece about Helen Mirren, as well as advise you ask your physician before starting them.
I find they keep me feeling flexible and good; it's very basic, but it works.
Good luck with it!

I remember them from the mid 70s. As I recall, they were uninspiring and tedious. I’m not sure why anyone would want to do them now…

Does anyone remember these or still do them.

They were originally created for office staff of the CRAF.

I have the book and have done them periodically over the years.

However they stop at age 60. I am 76 and would like to start doing them again. Am a bit worried though. Does anyone else in my age group do them regularly?
