Certified instructor description:
You get two all-seated, all-resistance band workouts plus a 5-foot band. Designed for seniors, it builds strength and flexibility with a special emphasis on day-to-day activities (e.g. "this move is like stepping out of the bathtub"). The workouts always begin with an extended stretch/flexibility series (e.g. rotating the wrists, bending at the waist). That's followed by a well-cued set of exercises that use the band in a variety of positions (e.g. wrapped around one leg, both legs, held in one hand, both hands, etc.). The first workout is a basic introduction to band toning; the second is slightly faster paced. Friendly, one-on-one instruction. ©2011.
