Does anyone follow a YouTube indoor walking programme to help with weight loss and general wellbeing please? I have seen some apps advertised but they require you to subscribe. I would be grateful for any advice and feedback. I am 65 years of age.

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

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.

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.

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)

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

Lesley Sansome for me too 👍

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.

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.
