5 years ago I might have said low advanced. Then the knees cried "Foul!" So I'd have dropped it to high intermediate, and even plain intermediate.
Today? After battling cancer and having chemo, the doc told me I could do light activity whenever I felt up to it. Many days I didn't feel like doing anything, but when I had a little energy I took short walks or did short easy videos. Gradually I found more energy. I was also very lucky and am now in remission! So I'm blessed to say today I am a very low intermediate. I'm not where I used to be! But I still the on the walking shoes, lift lighter weights and press Play! And I'll continue as long as my body allows.

I struggled between intermediate and low intermediate, then erred on the side of honesty - low intermediate.
I had reached advanced at one point, but am going in the opposite direction now. At my age and with my physical issues, my fitness career has been analogous to the adage "Be nice to all the people you meet on the way up because you're going to pass them again on the way down." If only I'd been kinder to my body on the way up:
