Senior citizen iso suggestions for aerobic activities/videos indoors with no equipment

Anonymous
I don’t have a treadmill, bike, etc. , but want to do aerobic activities indoors this winter. Are there any online classes you recommend? I did Jazzercize 20 years ago, but don’t hear about that anymore.

If you have a favorite class on YouTube please share a link.

I’m not a senior citizen, but I use Leslie Sansone’s indoor walking programs. They are in different mileage increments, some involve a little more intensity in bursts. Boring but effective for me.

Two suggestions: This YouTube channel has a range of routines from 15-20 minutes to a full hour, at various levels of intensity: https://www.youtube.com/c/SeniorFitnessWithMeredith/videos
I like the variety of routines and that she doesn't yell at you.

Another suggestion for higher-energy retro fun: there are a LOT of old Richard Simmons videos on YouTube. I love the Broadway ones.

armchair aerobics - you can find these online

if you go to YouTube and type in "armchair aerobics for seniors" or similar you'll get several like this one

This one is 30 mins but some are shorter, like 10 mins

My does a Silver Sneakers class via online. Pretty basic, slow paced, but just right for her.

She also has a chair aerobics class 3x/week - balance/strength, arms, etc. She really likes that one. Also online.

Can someone explain chair aerobics to me? Is this a thing because of balance issues? Arthritis? Knee problems?

Why not exercise legs and feet?

Not everybody can stand safely or without significant pain, or at all. Chair aerobics allow for cardio exercise without having to stand.

Pahla B. You can watch on YouTube. You can also go to her website and view from there.

On YouTube I like Paul Eugene and Leslie Sansone. There is also a mother daughter duo who's name I can't remember, but you can search and likely find them.
