Dear Cathe -
I am well aware of your professional reluctance to comment on other instructors.
However, I'm hoping that this will be far enough away from your target that you
could recommend a few exercise tapes or instructors for older non-exercisers.
I'm hoping to get my 83 year old grandmother to get a bit of muscle tone. She
has bad osteoporosis. She has stayed fairly slim due to not overeating, but she
has little muscle tone and her posture is getting much worse. I know that some
very light weight work and toning exercises would help her enormously. I would
love to send her a few light weights and a couple of exercise tapes that she would
find interesting and do-able. She is able to walk unassisted so she is not limited
to all sitting workouts.
Also, if you know of any research that shows that her osteoporosis is reversible
with exercise that just might help convince her to give it a try.
Thank you for your consideration,
Dona
