April 16, 2021 By D Marie 3 Comments

*Silver&Fit sponsored this post. After using their Fit at Home™ program throughout the quarantine and pandemic, I can say I am a true fan. So, all stated thoughts are my personal and professional impressions. (And always ethical.) In fact, I still tune in daily!

How to Get the BEST Chair Workout!

I have sampled nearly every level and variety of workouts that Fit At Home has to offer. However, as a physical therapist I am particularly jazzed about one segment of programming- the chair workout. I presently work with adults over the age of 50 in their homes and can share that there are limitless applications for  Silver&Fit® Fit at Home™ beginners.

Professionally, the largest obstacles to starting any workout program I encounter are:

  • accessibility
  • confined to wheelchair
  • homebound
  • don’t want to join a gym
  • sit at a desk all day for work (And want to incorporate movement during their breaks.)
  • afraid of falling
  • recent injury or surgery
  • never exercised before!

(*Please consult with your doctor before attempting any new exercise.)

I find older adults love the ability to start sloooowwwwly. And pick and chose routines depending on their past exercise history. Seated routines are a natural and safe place to start! (And my professional go-to for introducing core workouts.) Plus, Silver&Fit has the finest compilations of the best chair workouts I have found.

Chair Tai Chi
For 40 years I have wanted to explore Tai Chi. What better place to start- from my own home. And my own chair!

Beginner Silver&Fit® Fit at Home™ Chair Workout Classes:

  • Dance (do an entire disco routine in your chair!)
  • Yoga
  • Seated Mobility Exercise
  • Strength Using Bodyweight
  • Tai Chi
  • Mixed Format

Just a warning. These routines can become addictive! You’ll be Fit at Home™ before you know it!
