    Im in a wheelchair too after an accident. Not long i hope. It has been 5 weeks now and i hope i can start with trying to walk in 2 weeks hopefully. I can move my legs but i cant put weight on them for more that 1 or 2 minutes. I gained weight since then and im not happy. I hope this can help me

    This is the exact type of cardio I've been looking for! It brings my heart rate up and a little sweat to my brow but I can continue all the way through to the end, amazing! I've been doing this twice a day for a few weeks and it's become fun for me because I know I'm doing good for my body. Thanks so much to Spark People for providing this!

I have plantar fasciitis b/c I have flat feet and when it acts up, it's pure pain and I can't even go for a walk...THIS I CAN DO! thank you!

    This is a beautiful workout. I've started swimming five days a week since I over did my weight training and cardio and my knees got messed up a bit. i can't go to the pool for the next three weeks due to work and I did not want to use my stationary bike. I just finished your exercises and it was cool. However tomorrow i'm gonna do each move for five minutes and I will have hand weights so i'm gonna get a brilliant work out and of course end with my push ups and my plank. ( I always over do it). Thanks.

    I am an avid line dancer and have danced for years. I did no other exercises. Three years ago I went on a hayride and it was a total embarrassment when I needed so much help to get me on and off the wagon. Afterwards, I went to youtube and found several good exercises which helped immensely, but they all required standing. The following year I was able to get on and off with no assistance. Lately, I have developed calluses on the balls of my feet and have included chair exercises in my routines. With each sitting video, I've found things I couldn't do from a sitting position. In this one I learned I cannot, from a sitting position, lift both legs from the floor. I have also learned I cannot sit up completely straight and perform these exercise. I never realized how much I depend on the back of a chair. From another video I learned I could not sit in the chair, using my arms only, left my body off the chair and hold for 10 seconds. I have been working with this for a month or so. I can lift my bod but can hold for the ten seconds. This could have something to do with my age. But don't frown at chair exercises.

    I'm painfully arthritic, so I mall-exercise with a wheelchair. When I started almost a year ago, I had to stop every quarter-length of the distance to rest. Now I can make it to each end of the (L shaped) mall to rest a moment, gulp water, and take deep, cleansing breaths. :) Doctors always say 'in through your nose, out through your mouth'. So that's what I do while moving. I'm able to pace myself with the fast-walkers that also exercise there. :)
