First day of a new month and I have discovered another youtube channel Silver&Fit.
https://www.youtube.com/user/silverandfit
My favorite routines so far are Penny's Intermediate Cardio vids which are outside in front of a pool. I like her moves and speed but prefer to play my own music while muting the cuing. The only thing that ZDancerLiz lacks is outdoor scenery and the only thing lacking in WOW is choreography although WOW has much more choreo than Brand Fitness. By adding my own music to Penny, I have my trifecta. There are lots of other great free youtube dance-walk videos with good choreography and music like Aqua Jade but few with outdoor scenery.
I will also add my own music to https://www.youtube.com/c/MichelleWilsonWorkouts/videos

I usually mute myself during a zoom class but one morning when trying to enter a zoom class, I kept getting interrupted by spam phone calls in another room so I mistakenly shared some colorful language with the class before I realized I was not muted. It was both embarrassing and amusing at the same time like a skit on Saturday Night Live.
Some Tracfone Smartphone tips:
We keep upgrading to a new phone for another year of service and additional buckets. The deactivated phones make great mini tablets using just WiFi. I play with a new phone like it is a tablet before I activate it. Sometimes when turning a new but unactivated phone on, there are mysterious calling sounds. These can be avoided by using airplane mode to block Tracfone services, just remember to turn WiFi back on while in airplane mode. Also turn off airplane mode when you are ready to activate the phone. Once it is activated, those ghost calls stop.
The unactivated or deactivated Tracfone Smart phone can be used with mobile apps and plays online videos or stored video files nicely either on the phone or casting to a receiver device on a TV. My mobiles play videos better than my Windows laptops, especially on Chromecast (The ROKU app will play files from a device too). If you want to watch a video file that is stored on the phone, you do not even need WiFi or electricity. Some apps can download a video to watch offline (the Web Video Caster browser app can download many online videos if using an Android device). If you are into using video files, a SD card is a cheap way to expand the phone storage. Playing a video file avoids annoying buffering.
(For both ROKU and Chromecast, I have been downloading more videos onto my android phone, including zoom video recordings. I open a zoom link on my phone then copy and paste it onto the Web Video Caster app url. I have also added many free youtube workout files which I have made music only)
