REVIEW FROM LIBRARY JOURNAL:

June 15, 2009

These companion videos use Horn's Regenerative Movement Technique (RMT) (tm), which incorporates elements of yoga and tai chi to exercise gently and increase blood flow to the targeted areas.

Slow, rhythmic motions, rocking and deep breathing combine to help loosen muscles and maintain range of motion for those with limited mobility. This will be especially appealing to older adults and to individuals who have been temporarily immobilized owing to illness or accident. The movements are easy to follow and perform.

Horn, whose resume also includes songwriter, painter, and digital online book publisher, projects a quietly positive attitude that doesn't intimidate but gradually builds the viewer's confidence. This reviewer, laid up with a back injury, found the exercises quite helpful.

No-nonsense fitness program, perfect for seniors

By crazycatlady on January 1, 2011

Format: DVD Verified Purchase

My mother was interested in a fitness/exercise video that was suitable for her needs. At eighty years old, she wasn't too satisfied with many of the ones she sampled, most of which consisted of models in leotards smiling maniacally and shouting with overenthusiastic glee as they jerked their bodies around to the beat of loud, obnoxious music. Few of these contained the kind of fitness program she would enjoy repeating on a regular basis.

She was pleasantly surprised by this DVD, which provides a set of gentle, energizing exercises for the upper body
(a second DVD, sold separately, is also available: "Sit and Get Fit Lower Body.") Host Michael Horn demonstrates the exercises and movements clearly and in a relaxed manner, allowing the viewer to follow along easily without strain. He also instructs viewers how to breathe properly during and in between movements (some fitness DVDs tend to forget this important procedure).

The program is low-impact and effective, without straining the viewer. My mother views this and the Sit and Get Fit Lower Body DVD on a regular basis, as she finds the routines and pace perfect for her.

This and the Lower Body DVD make a great set of fitness programs for senior citizens, people who cannot stand up to perform exercises, or anyone who doesn't feel comfortable with the frenetic gyrating movements featured on many fitness DVDs. (One of the testimonials included on the DVD is by a one-hundred-year-old lady who enjoys the exercises.) These would be of special interest to visitors of senior centers, residents of nursing homes, people going through physical rehabilitation, or anyone looking for an energizing, non-strenuous fitness DVD.

No-nonsense fitness video; perfect for seniors (Continued)

This is the second DVD in the Michael Horn DVD set, "Sit and Get Fit." The first concentrates on upper body exercises that can be performed while seated; this one includes lower body movements. Each would be of interest for seniors, people who cannot stand while exercising, or anyone looking for a low-impact, gentle fitness program.

Please see my review of "Sit and Get Fit Upper Body." My mother purchased both these DVDs and enjoys using them regularly; she is eighty years old and finds them very effective and suitable to her needs and recommends them highly.

Great for all ages. (tried it from Netflix first)

I know many elderly people use this, but I am not elderly. (under 45) I was really weak from anemia and inactivity. I wanted to move, but no energy left me feeling defeated.

I rented this dvd from Netflix, and loved it. I felt better before the end of the video. My leg pain was gone, and I was so relaxed, I felt like I had a glass of wine.

The movements are very slow, but engage a lot of muscles, and you feel it. I felt like napping afterward. I suggest using in afternoon or evening if you work.

My entire body responded to the upper body video. I also rented the lower body, but for my condition, the upper body was more for me.

I bought copies for a friend who works at a hotel front desk, and a relative who had back surgery and cannot do certain movements.

There is about a 3 min reflexology section for your hands that is wonderful. My teen used that after playing hockey.

It really is for everyone. Relieves STRESS!!!!!!
