YouTube Walking Programmes?

While walking is good it doesn’t really help with weight loss so if that is your main reason you will probably be disappointed unless you incorporate this with a change in diet.
If you are able to get out most councils do free health walks which are not too demanding and are a pleasant way to get some exercise snd meet people.
Good luck,

Absolutely! You don't need to pay for a subscription to get a good workout. There are plenty of free indoor walking videos on YouTube that are ideal for beginners.

At 65, I'd suggest aiming for a 20-30 minute walk most days of the week. After your walk, add a few simple strength exercises like chair squats, wall push-ups, and standing calf raises (2 sets of 8-12 reps). Those will help maintain muscle, improve balance, and make everyday activities easier.

My biggest tip is not to worry about finding the "perfect" program- consistency beats perfection every time. And remember, we're exercising to feel better, not auditioning for Strictly Come Dancing!

Best of luck- you've got this!

I've been trying Don Fiore's Tai Chi and Chi Gong videos as I've been having a lot of back pain recently.
They're very gentle but I can certainly feel the difference.
He explains the moves well, the music is relaxing and the scenery is lovely 🙂
You can do the moves seated if you prefer.

I've followed Leslie Sansone for a long time, but fancied a change.

There are lots. I’ve seen one called Ta’i Walking quite a lot. To be honest most of them look a bit dodgy and use AI quite a bit instead of real people.

Lesley Sansome for me too 👍

There’s also Get fit with Rick but personally I prefer Lesley Sansone.

Thank you ! I will look at Lesley Sansome 👍

petra I know that. What I meant is there are walking apps out there which require you to sign up and pay before you can commence the programme (nothing to do with YouTube)

Another vote for Lesley Sansome here; I enjoy the variety of distances and exercises on offer. No subscription necessary but you can subscribe for a monthly plan if you want.

I do Lesley sansome walking, I like her, she does rattle on but very upbeat…boosts up my steps , especially when it’s pouring down I don’t go for a long walk so much….she walks a mile, 2 miles, 3 or more….see what time I have.

When you see subscribe on a video it doesnt mean you pay.
This video will explain.
