Basic fat-burning cardio followed by simple body-sculpting and an extended stretch. Both workouts strengthen your heart while building strength and maximizing flexibility. The cardio section is easy-to-follow and fun. The moves range from traditional marches, arm swings and mambos to theme-driven sequences like "circus," "steam engine" and "train robbery" (holding your arms with guns blazing...). The next section combines seniors-specific toning with varied balance exercises (often using a chair for stability and reassurance). It all ends with a soothing series of total-body stretches. Note: The second workout is nearly identical to the first; it just has a few additional aerobic exercises. Also: the same warm-up, cooldown and some of the cardio sequences are re-used in Sue's begin/inter-level [6426] Older, Wiser and Wonderful DVD.} Requires 3 to 6 lb. dumbbells. ©2013.
