Fitness Forever Senior Exercise Video was also designed for use in an institutional setting, such as a hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation program, senior center, an assisted living complex, nursing home or hospital extended-care facility.  It is enthusiastically received as an alternative class for a fitness center, or as part of a corporate retirement program.  It is a low-cost, medically appropriate addition to any existing exercise or fitness program. 

The benefit, to the senior or older adult using the tape, is the addition of specifically designed moves to improve balance, coordination, reflex response, and even brain function! (this is a link)

The value of a medically designed, medically approved, portable exercise program cannot be overlooked!  This video offers a low-cost method of expanding and enhancing your existing program, by offering a workout session that can be done with minimal supervision.

Throughout the video Michael McQuarrie, MD, FASCM is featured as “Doc in the Box”, and viewed on a small portion of the screen.  Dr. McQuarrie gives cautionary information to the exerciser about specific moves and advises the viewer to “work at the level prescribed by your physician”.  Directions for those exercising to the tape on their own, guides them through an appropriate, safe cool-down if they are ending their workout before the tape is done.

Workshops for facilitating the use of the video are available for staff training, to insure that appropriate instruction and assistance is given to those exercising in facilities where there are participants with medical conditions or health risks.

The training workshops teach appropriate modifications of the exercises for specific physical conditions and disease processes and special populations.

This valuable training program for staff overseeing the use of the video, not only increases the total effectiveness of the program, but also reduces the risk of over enthusiastic participants working at levels that create unnecessary physical or mental stress.

The video may be purchased in larger amounts at a discount, to be available for re-sale or as part of an institutional library checkout program.  Pricing for both bulk quantities and institutional customization is available.
