  • In this workout, we’re using resistance bands to help build strength and flexibility.
    Using resistance bands are a great way to add strength, and variety to your workouts. If you don’t have bands you can always follow along using just your range of motion.
    This workout is completely seated so you can feel comfortable as we take you through motions that incorporate your full body.
    From upper body movements to lower body movements, this is a great way to stay flexible, relaxed and feel accomplished.
    As per every exercise only do what you feel comfortable with and avoid pain or discomfort. Never force any movements and only use a range of motion that best works for you.
    Also, don’t forget to take lots of breaks and drink water.
    Have a great workout!
    Team Meredith

      I am new here ! I am 71 y.o. and prone to inactivity. I have weights, resistance bands and a 22" diameter playground ball. You are a gem. I am so pleased to have happened upon your seated fitness videos. Thank You so much

    Hi Meredith. I tried watching another Senior Fitness leader do resistance band for beginners and seniors, but she never allowed any kind of time to stop. I would say anybody over 70 probably could not do her routine. I'm 79, and yours fits the bill perfectly.

    This is perfect for me! I'm not a senior, but I'm morbidly obese and just starting my weight loss journey and I find a lot of exercise videos to be too strenuous for me.
    I love how you thoroughly explained everything and went at a slower pace. I actually found it to be relaxing and I feel really good now.
    This is just what I was looking for to get myself started. I will check out your other videos. Thank you so much! ❤

    Is there any place to purchase your videos. Live in a rural area with limited internet access. Tried to download them but was unable to do so.

    • @SeniorFitnessWithMeredith
      @SeniorFitnessWithMeredith  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Pamela! Thank you so much for liking these workouts. Unfortunately we dont currently have them for sale yet as we want to keep these free for everyone. However we will look into having them free to download in the coming months with links where you can do so while you are connected to the internet. Best way to find out when we have that set up is to sign up for our newsletter at www.seniorfitnesswithmeredith.com to stay up to date with us. Thank you again!
