HASfit Exercises for Seniors DVD - 4 Discs - 16 Senior Workouts for Balance, Weight Loss, Flexibility, Cardio, Strength, Yoga Fitness, Seated Chair Exercise For Beginners, Elderly - 3 Programs

I feel the packaging needs an upgrade. The case was broken on top and bottom. Several pieces fell out when cardboard paper package was opened. The discs were fine and am enjoying using them. I feel a wrap of some kind around the case would better protect the case. There was no evidence upon looking at the sealed package that there had been any abuse to package.

Exactly what we were looking for. As seniors, we're working on strength and flexibility. Routines are easy to follow - standing or sitting down.

Great way to start getting healthier especially for those who may be limited, recovering from something or cant jump in to more difficult programs yet.for somebody that hates exercising the the short workouts, difficulty options and reasonable pace are a very good option. Highly recommend for mature or compromised adults.

I believe the work outs are very good however the number one DVD has some malfunction skipping.

Well worth your money. I Love how the exercises are categorized and broken down into different levels so you can pick a level each time. Amazing videos in this set!

Good video, instruction is good, excercises are easy to follow.

The nice thing about this DVD set is there is a generous amount of workouts to do & try out. It is a decent value for the price. I was less impressed with some of the finer details: exercise timing is not reliable, sometimes speeding up & not matching the rhythm of the music. The two instructors are not always in sync with each other, both doing their own rhythm through the exercises. Cueing on form is not always consistent especially within the timed segments. This can be important, especially for a population that may be compromised in range of motion, pacing & agility. All in all, these are somewhat mediocre workouts on a set with very simple production value. The female instructor appears to be pregnant which never gets addressed---Is the workout for pregnant practitioners too? No mention is made about that, leaving some questions on the table about pregnancy for these workouts. Kind of a mismatch of purpose.

These exercises are effective and they more than do the job for senior citizens and those suffering from injuries or medical issues. The one thing that can be prescribed for anyone at any age is exercise!Balance is a major problem with seniors. This is of course because of aging and polypharmia (many prescriptions which affect balance).These DVD's have exercises to improve balance and strengthen the core (just about all our muscles except those of the extremities).Each exercise has two instructors, male and female, your choice! The female instructor performs the excercises with modifications for women or the weaker among us of either sex. You have to start somewhere!If your desire is to improve your health and you are serious about it, you will not be disappointed with this DVD set!Also, I think they can greatly help with fall prevention. It is amazing what an excercise tool a good folding chair can be! Amazon sells some good ones!
