    here's several suggestions for senior exercises Start with the basics for exercises for the elderly. Get the big picture and explore how to safely begin an exercise program! Learn correct posture before you start in order to help maximize the benefits of exercise. Watch our posture video for important exercises. Review the proper techniques of breathing to improve your lung function and energy level. This video will show you how. Increase your flexibility to allow full motion in your shoulders, hips, and legs with these exercises. Watch our stretching videos for valuable instruction. Build strength in the arms, legs and back to greatly enhance your functional independence with our strengthening videos Gain endurance and improve your ability to walk and participate in energetic social activities like dancing and nature outings. Develop better balance to increase your safety in the home and in community. (I learned these and the reasons they work on Seniorcises site )

    Yea I have a comment.....although some exercise is good for older people....there don't seem to much else in the way of entertainment.....I looked into what things there were to do.for the older generations......They seem to be sat down in chairs all having to share the same room most of the time with not much going on from one day till the next having to be grateful for the little bit of entertainment they get on offer.....Bingo...a little exercise program.....Card games....those things are ok but that seems to be the main options.....they are grouped together as if they are children in a school classroom in some regimented way.....These homes should have better choices these days.....They should have a room for dance.....a room for exercise......a games room......a Arts and craft room......A rest room......and a TV room......a music room......They should have options......Not everyone in old age is chair bound .....some are more physically able than others....very sad......

    In 1998, I graduated from Kutztown University with a degree in Education. However, I am currently working in a personal care facility named Evans Retirement Center. I love my work. It is so rewarding. Thank you for this video. It will continue to inspire me, in my work with the elderly population.
