Certified instructor description: Designed for anyone with Parkinson’s disease who prefers working out while sitting down. The entire program is done seated in a chair (although Mary Ann demonstrates some moves standing next to the chair while Lori remains seated). The program is designed to increase flexibility, improve balance and boost coordination. The movements include breath exercises, stretches and range-of-motion routines (e.g. circling the arms overhead). There are also some “light cardio” routines and even a few facial exercises (“frown, now smile, now pucker …”). Mary Ann Wilson, RN and Lori McCormick, PT are experienced seniors’ instructors — always calm and very supportive (never condescending). Also includes a short medical information segment on Parkinson’s. Formerly titled "Sit and Be Fit: Parkinson's Workout II". ©2006. DVD has: Chapter menus, Narrow screen.

Sit and Be Fit: Parkinson's Workout

review for sit & be fit's parkinson's II video

my daughter bought this video for me. it's helped the Parkinson's by loosening up my muscles at times and helps with my motor skills at times. it's a pretty good video. I'd recommend this video or any other volume to help with the Parkinson's. - posted by gerald on 10/7/2010

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.

Chapter menus

You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).

Narrow screen

When played on a widescreen TV, this program will show black bars on the left and right sides. On an older 4x3 ratio TV, it will fill the entire screen.

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.

Stretch type

Athletic: Traditional sports-style, all-physical stretches. It is the least mind-body focused.

Yoga: Carefully designed poses that emphasize breath, concentration and mental awareness. It also includes the more flowing yoga style – Power Yoga.

Tai Chi: All-standing, very fluid poses (it looks like a person moving in slow-motion). The Chinese called Tai Chi "meditation in motion."

Specialty: Health challenges

Workouts especially designed for specific physical challenges. The moves are carefully selected and modified to address the unique needs of each physical situation.
