Certified instructor description: It includes two separate arthritis programs that focus on flexibility and range-of-motion for all your joints. Both workouts feature gentle stretch, flexibility and toning exercises (mostly seated, some standing). The first workout uses two balls. One is similar to a volleyball; it’s used for large muscle movements (e.g. arms and legs). The other ball is similar to a golf ball; it’s used for finger exercises. The second program is the same workout that’s on Mary Ann’s originally 1993 VHS “Arthritis” tape; it does not require any special equipment. In addition to the Arthritis-specific moves, you also get medical information about Arthritis. The workout is led by Mary Ann Wilson, a registered nurse and star of PBS’s “Sit and Be Fit” series. ©2007 & 1993.

Sit & Be Fit: Arthritis

Would Like to See More of These

My arthritis kicked in a few years ago and some days I just can't make myself muster up the gumption to workout through the pain but I know being sedentary isn't the answer either. This video is great for those days. I tried the video on one of my most painful days and it helped alleviate some of the pain. Great stretching video for those struggling with the pain of arthritis. - posted by Pamela on 9/2/2010

Comments:

Your review will appear on this site within 2-3 days as long as it fits our guidelines. We do NOT post reviews that:

Use profanity, obscenities or are just plain mean-spirited.
Are single word critiques -- readers need to know why you liked or didn't like the workout.
Include non-Collage phone numbers, addresses, URLs, or pricing information.
Are written in all-caps -- it just seems like screaming.
Do not appear to be genuine, honest and helpful to others.
Are personal attacks on the instructor or on other video reviewers (i.e. posts that do not primarily discuss the content of this video).

Note: Please do the video a few times before you write a review so you're sure about your long-term opinion. And try to be specific about what you liked, or didn't. For example on a video, "Hard to follow" might mean you thought the video was poorly cued. Or it might just mean that it has complex choreography.

Also, it's helpful to give a little information about yourself (e.g. your fitness level, style preferences, age). It will help others better understand your comments.

Reading a Time Graph

Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Level

Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Toning emphasis

Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Specialty: Arthritis

Workouts especially designed to reduce arthritis pain. These programs usually blend gentle stretches with light toning and self-massage exercises.
