It got me back to weights
Hi Jen,
I did it. It is just ending for me in a week and I won't sign up for any more. It was alright but I like to work out to music. And I couldn't listen to her breathlessness. I found it really distracting. BUT-she is full of good information and modification suggestions. I did get something out of it but half way through I switched to my Cathe weight DVD's which I hadn't done in years. I know now (must better than years ago) what to modify in these. And also I am only doing full body ones twice a week. I'm finding my strength is really improving with modifying and adequate recovery which Debra says is really key. She has lots of free stuff on Youtube and her podcast is great. Hope that helps and hope you are doing ok. Marilyn |

People need me and I am tired of feeling like an invalid, plus I would like to have the strength to travel while I still can. Sorry for the whining folks. If anyone knows of well done gentle programs that help you be stronger and more mobile, I would really like to know. There is a girl on youtube (i think it is called Keep the Adventure Alive?? And she is all about Osteo arthritis (or one of the big types), and I tried her 4 day program and it was pretty painful, but she is always talking about continueing movement no matter what. I'll shut up of this will go on all night. Thankyou all!!

Jenilu,
I may have suggested this previously - if so, please forgive me - but Silver & Fit has a variety of workouts on their Youtube channel. Many, many beginner level workouts - which I haven't done - and many intermediate and advanced level workouts which I have done. Don't let the name Silver & Fit turn you off. Sometimes gentle is what we need. Carol |

i could try. Its mostly arms/shoulders/neck and stamina. I think I am idiotically trying to find what PT couldn't help me with and some amazing program will cure me of all that ails, lol. i may have to stick to walking style cardio with a little weights here and there (sometimes I can do bands if I am very careful) and recumbant. Find new ways to work my suddenly large core as well. I will look at her workouts on there. I know she has been around a long time, but I "don't think" i have ever tried her- If she had a GAIAM walking workout, I may have tried her once. Thankyou!
