5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Gentle Light weight Exercises
This is a gentle easy non Impact non Aerobic exercise routine, The pace is slow & relaxed, and the exercises are done with Light weights for the upper body that can be done sitting or standing.

The 2nd part for the lower body exercises are done standing while holding the the back of a chair for added balance.

Sunshine first demonstrates and explains...

3.0 out of 5 stars Very adequate routine
We were satisfied with the exercise program, but wished the production values were a little more sophisticated. A little more variety would have made it more interesting. All and all though, the program did the job.

This is a gentle easy non Impact non Aerobic exercise routine, The pace is slow & relaxed, and the exercises are done with Light weights for the upper body that can be done sitting or standing.

The 2nd part for the lower body exercises are done standing while holding the the back of a chair for added balance.

Sunshine first demonstrates and explains the exercise and then she starts the exercise making it very easy to follow.

This is a good easy routine for Seniors & Elderly that want to do some exercises routine with Light weights to maintain your muscles and get stronger, have more balance which I have gotten from exercising with this tape.

I Highly recommend this to Seniors and Those that want to get stronger and stay active and Independent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Lightweight exercise DVD for Seniors, April 14, 2005

This review is from: Senior Easy Light Weights Exercise DVD: Seniors / Elderly Easy Dumbbells Sitting and Standing Exercises for Strength and Balance . Easy Light Weights DVD good for Rehab & Physical Therapy.

I am now 75 years old and work as a full-time histologist. I retired and decided to return to work. I keep up with the demanding and interesting and intricate workload for three and a half years.

I have been greatly assisted in doing so as a result of the muscle-strengthening exercises I have been doing with the Seniors Lightweight and Seniors Resistance Bands Funcercise Dvds. My sister Daisy & Myself have lost weight about Ten lbs, each and feel more energetic everyday.

I no longer have shoulder pains when operating the microtone. I have received numerous compliments since my sister (age 73) and I have been training with these Dvds which are very simple & easy to do. The way Sunshine first demonstrates the Exercises and then the Funcercises start making it very easy for us to follow. The resistance bands are great because they conform to my/sisters resistance levels.

I literally run up the steps to reach the LIRR train every day.

We love these beautiful Dvds that are filmed on the beach. Also the narration is very simple with nice music. Altogether this is the best seniors exercise Dvd that we have and love to use it a lot.

These wonderful Seniors Funcercise & Lightweight exercise DVDs are good for Seniors and Elderly like us.

We highly recommend these DVDs to anyone who wants to gain better health, strength and mobility.

This is a good beginner's routine. I like the beach setting and Sunshine - the gal who demonstrates and narrates it. It is well done and straightforward, easy to follow. Sunshine is a good role model for fitness in older women.

4.0 out of 5 stars Must She Smile that Much?, August 17, 2008
This review is from: Senior Easy Light Weights Exercise DVD: Seniors / Elderly Easy Dumbbells Sitting and Standing Exercises for Strength and Balance . Easy Light Weights DVD good for Rehab & Physical Therapy. This Seniors Light Weights Fitness DVD is Good also for Easy Osteoporosis Exercises, Diabetes Exercises, Arthritis Exercises, Alzheimer's Exercises DVD.

I like this DVD because the exercises are easy to do for a great grandma. No advice given about weights however. So I chose 1 pound weights for starters. Now I am using 2 pound hand-held weights and 1 pound ankle weights. I also bought Sunshine's Resistance Bands DVD. The warm-up, cool down, calisthinics and pilates exercises are identical on both DVDs. A waste of money in my opinion. So I suggest just the Light Weights because it gently works most muscle groups and you can use heavier weights as your strength increases. The Resistance Band DVD came with two stretch bands for the upper body, no stretch band for legs. Another waste of money.

This is a Good Dumbbells Exercises DVD, I got this as a gift and I am pleased with the exercises. The exercises are very well done and effective. The Teacher explains very clearly and shows first how to do the exercise then she does the exercise 10 times. I certainly feel the difference in my strength and balance. I do this exercise DVD 3 times a week and do the other exercises every other day so I am not bored doing the same exercise routines all the time. Recommended.

I got this dvd for my cousin to do some light weight exercises, In just a few weeks of exercising with this dvd he is feeling stronger and better.
The exercises are very simple and the pace is slow making it easy to follow.

Sunshine explains and shows the exercises first in a demonstration then she starts the exercise. The music is nice and Sunshine dose the exercises on a nice sunny beach making it pleasant view while exercising.

This is a good dumbbell exercises dvd for seniors, Highly Recommended.

The exercises are fine, but I can't stand the model. I think she was told to keep smiling at all times, I watch her and it looks too much like a grimace. No one holds a smile that long...she never stops and I continue to look away from the screen. I also wish they had let her explain the moves, it would have looked natural. A small thing to some people I know, but it really bothers me. But for the purpose for which it was made its very good.
