"I have been to the local library, checking out 15 different exercise DVDs for seniors. Anne is the best I found. Her direction is great- so is the music. I have rheumatoid arthritis, and I really need these." ~Helen K, Merrimac, MA
"I got this for my 89 year-old dad. We do the exercise together. He was inspired by all the elderly people in the video, it helped him through when he got discouraged." ~Jane D

Resistance Band Workouts for Seniors
This program is awesome! It gives you a great strength training workout that you can do from a sturdy straight back chair. When you can't stand for long periods of time most workouts make you lose your enthusiasm about doing them. This one keeps you coming back for more! Anne Pringle Burnell is her lovely self on this DVD. I love all the Stronger Senior workout programs but this one I believe is my favorite!
I am not quite a senior but have lived a very sedentary life until the past 3 months and I have serious back problems so the Stronger Senior DVD's are perfect for me! You really can get a great workout in! You get out of it what you put into it and if you really put some energy into the workout your muscles will ache in a most agreeable fashion! - Bluejay

I love all Anne Pringle Burnell's DVDs...I have bad knees and need to watch any twisting and bending of knees and back, I do what I can and substitute extra counts on the ones I can do. She speaks slowly and is easy to understand, you don't feel rushed.Thanks - Rachel H.

I've been doing these at least three or four times a week since I had my knee replacements and it sure helps me to move around. I always feel better after I've done them.

These exercises are great. I'm in my sixties and my daughter who is in her thirties also enjoys doing this program. We do them every day. I would also recommend the Stronger Seniors Pilates exercises program as well.
