I am an experienced orthopedic physical therapist currently focusing on arthritis care. This exercise program has all of the right components for the arthritis sufferer. There are several options for people to adjust the level of intensity for them. The music is a little hokey, but that's the only minor complaint that I have.

I have been doing this Arthritis Foundation Exercise Program Workout for two months -- I started doing these exercises at my local Library once a week. Then I bought this dvd. It works for me... I do it almost every day. I have Fibromaglia and it has helped me tremendously. I am an active 60 year old. I walk 3 miles a day weather permitting or bike 5 miles per day with a 2 mile walk included. Use it or you will lose it.

I agree with the previous reviews. It's an excellent overall workout for a an active person with OA and spinal stenosis.
When I skip it for a few days, I feel the difference.
(And yes, I have turned the music down and made substitutions from time to time).
I like the positive energy,the familiar illusion of community,the pleasant demeanor of the instructor and the ease with which one can adjust the level depending on how you're feeling on a given day.

Physically, I find it a good beginning to set the tone for the day and
emotionally, it's a friendly, gentle, experience.

Very good exercise program. The music is a little strange, but you can just turn it down and play a CD if it bugs you.
