- Physioballs or Swiss exercise balls are commonly used in
physical therapy for rehabilitation. In the past several years,
however, they have been utilized in general strength-fitness
and flexibility programs. Physioball Core, Flexibility, and Functional-Strength
Exercises for Seniors features a strength-fitness and flexibility
program that incorporates Physioballs, as well as floor mats
and an individual’s own bodyweight, for a mild-to-vigorous
program to enhance and develop basic strength, flexibility, and
balance.
-
- The program featured on the DVD is easy to follow and can
be used by an individual or in small-to-large groups. Although
the programs in the DVD were designed for senior adults, the
exercises can be employed by people of all ages and abilities.
The exercise programs are appropriate for a beginner, as well
as a person seeking a more advanced training program.
-
- The functional strength-training program in the DVD emphasizes
the muscles of the core, while strengthening the whole body.
Donna utilizes her extensive knowledge and background in physical
therapy to build a combination of traditional strength-training
exercises and stability exercises to help strengthen the parts
of the body that are used the most, such as the abdominal and
back muscles. This form of training is ideal for anyone who wants
to condition their body, particularly the core muscle groups.
