Looking for an easy yet effective workout you can do while seated? This 7-exercise seated workout combines cardio and strength moves, perfect for those who want to stay active without standing up. Designed for over-55s, it’s a great way to get your heart pumping and muscles working—all from the comfort of your chair!
Welcome to the first instalment of my Top to Toe programme! This 4-week full-body fitness journey kicks off with Legs of Steel, a workout designed to strengthen your lower body and help you build a solid foundation for the weeks to come.
Get ready to turn things up a notch with session 2 of the Waist Trimmers Workout! It's all about moving your body and having fun while you burn off those extra calories. I've reduced the rest periods to keep the pace lively, but don't worry—you'll still be smiling by the end of it (promise!).
With a mix of energetic exercises, you'll be stepping, marching, and maybe even throwing in a cheeky shuffle or two. The aim? To get your heart rate up and boost your energy!
So, take a deep breath, get ready to move!
Welcome to Session 3 of our 4-week cardio journey!
Here’s what to expect:
Start Where You Are: Build on your progress from Sessions 1 and 2, and push yourself a little further today.
See the Difference: By now, you might already feel fitter, less breathless, stronger, and more agile. Keep it up!
Effective Sessions: Each session is crafted to improve your cardiovascular health, build strength, and enhance mobility.
Let's jump into Session 3 and progress towards your fitness goals. You're doing great!
Welcome to the five-day starter programme! This is your entry point to seeing how easy and accessible exercise can be. Over the next five days, you'll do five different workouts, all under 10 minutes long and covering mobility, balance, cardio, strength and core!
It's day 3, and we're getting the heart and lungs pumping! It's cardio day (my favourite!). Three exercises, three rounds! As always, do what you can and adjust if you need to. These types of workouts are a great way to measure progress. Take note of how you feel during and after, and compare when you do it again!
You can do this workout seated (swap the shuffles for some seated, non-jumping jacks)...
A short one to get the legs and heart going!

I am so excited to announce that Miranda, a specialist yoga instructor with a focus on accessible yoga has joined the Jims Gym team. Here is a brief introduction to Miranda:
I have practiced yoga for over twenty years. With a background in special education, I was a teacher in London for many years before moving to Stroud. I retrained as a yoga teacher with the East London studio, Yoga on the Lane.
I'm thrilled to see you here, ready to embark on this fitness journey with me. As I've been populating the site with videos, I thought clarifying the equipment you might need to participate fully would be helpful.
