00:02 The following program is designed to demonstrate
00:04 simple workouts that you can use to improve 00:06 your health. Be sure to consult your physician 00:10 before beginning any exercise program. 00:15 Senior citizen training is very important. 00:17 We would have so much better success keeping 00:19 our seniors out of nursing home, if we can just keep 00:21 them moving, keep their muscles strong active. 00:24 Find out how next on Body and Spirit Aerobics. 00:55 Hello, I am Dick Nunez Wellness Director at 00:57 Black Hills Health and Education Center. 00:59 Welcome to Body and Spirit Aerobics. 01:02 Often times training seniors can be very challenging 01:04 because it's hard to get them moving. 01:05 But today we're gonna go over couple different 01:07 types of routines that seniors can do to stay strong, 01:11 fit, and healthy. We want them to stay as self 01:14 sufficient as possible for as along as possible. 01:16 I know that's what they want as well and we never 01:19 none of us want to get to a place where it's hard 01:21 to remembrance and so forth and by getting 01:22 good regular exercise keeping that brain well oxidative, 01:25 we can self keep ourselves young and fit for much 01:28 longer time period. Alright, I believe we're ready to get 01:31 started. Helping me out today is an old friend 01:34 of 3ABN mom Ford. So, come on out and we will get going. 01:40 We're gonna sit down in chairs assuming that 01:43 some will have trouble getting around. 01:45 But we're gonna get a good workout anyway. 01:47 Okay, we're going to start out by circling the arms up 01:50 and around and getting some blood flowing into our 01:55 upper body. If you're having trouble getting all the way up 02:00 and around do the best you can and you will find the 02:04 more you do this, the better you will get at doing it. 02:13 Okay, let's go back the other way now up and around, 02:16 good, up and around, and up and around. 02:27 It's kind swimming in air and so well I can't swim 02:30 I sink otherwise. Okay, and back around the other way 02:37 again up and around, up and around, up and around, 02:42 good keep it going. And back to the front again, 02:51 up and around, we're using the shoulders to start 02:59 stimulating some aerobic activity here using 03:02 the upper body. Okay, and back the other way again. 03:10 Start to feel those yet, yeah, okay. Okay, 03:15 let's roll the shoulders now, up and around good, 03:19 keep the shoulders working here. And now to the front, 03:32 circling them up, bringing up towards the ears, 03:36 and feel your scapulae region working. Okay, five more 03:45 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, now reverses with the other way and five 04:01 more 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Alright, let's roll the shoulders, 07:28 roll them. In the upper body, it's more difficult to get 07:35 an aerobic type workout. So, we are having to use the 07:38 shoulder region that's the best we can get as far as 07:41 something is gonna last aerobically for a while. 07:48 And back to the front again and 10 more 1, 2, 3, 08:02 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, elbows into side and we can put the 08:12 arms out and in, keep the elbows in, here we go, good. 08:18 This is an excellent one for the rotator cuff as well, 08:23 good. Alright, doesn't feel too bad so far does it, 08:30 nice change, yeah that's what I thought too. 08:35 Okay, keep it going, good, and out, and out, and out, 08:43 good, out, and out, good job keep it up, good. 08:59 We're gonna try and do that for 50 more seconds 09:03 and then we can have lot yeah we do. 09:05 I think we can get a lot doing great and we're down 09:17 to 30 seconds right now, good. Again we're trying 09:30 to stimulate aerobic action through the shoulder 09:33 region, coming up with different movements to 09:37 keep our body's going, keep our shoulders metabolizing. 09:44 It's a fine line; it's easy to over do it, 09:49 five more seconds. Alright good, let's go back 09:54 to the shoulders shrugs up to the back; 09:57 let's go with the back, and back, and back. 10:12 Okay, arms circles, up and around, okay let's reverse it, 10:35 and reverse it good. 10 more seconds, 10:53 okay and roll the shoulders to the back, back, and back, 11:01 and back, back, back, back, and back, up to front now, 11:07 up to the front good, five more 2, 3, 4, 5, 11:19 okay we're gonna get arms like this and 11:20 we're gonna try and cycle our arms. 11:23 I don't know how long we will last doing this, 11:25 but we give it a war here, that's good. 11:31 It's like riding the bike with the arms, receiving will last 11:36 for one minute, okay. We keep it going, something 11:51 the boxers do a lot, trying to get as much 11:53 aerobic activity in their shoulders they can. 11:58 I feel like I'm in the 15th round now. 12:03 You haven't tried boxing? I'm surprised, 12:05 you tried everything else. Here we go 20 more seconds, 12:22 now we're down to 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 12:32 okay arms into side let's do the rotator cuff again. 12:41 Good. This is a nice one I like this one, 12:50 even though it's relatively easy, it's excellent helping 12:54 that rotator cuff area, good keep going, good. 13:09 We're left 30 more seconds, good keep it up, 13:22 and we're down to 15 more seconds, 10, 9, 8, 7, 13:33 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, okay arms out straight, 13:42 and if we can reach fist, not quite. Okay hold it steady 13:50 and we are going to try to hold it for a minute 13:54 and then two minutes, oh really, and it isn't the last 13:57 time we're working together. Well, see if we have 14:02 to two minutes after that first one. 14:06 This is a static hold, it's an excellent exercise, 14:10 get the shoulders burning. But while we're holding 14:15 it here even though we're not doing movement right now, 14:19 our shoulders muscles are still have in contract, 14:21 both our arms up and the process of metabolism 14:25 continues on. Mom Ford's pretty good this one though, 14:31 so she always makes me little nervous, 14:33 find out what happens here, almost done with our first 14:37 minute. How we doing, we're doing okay? 14:42 We're doing real well. Oh, oh, that's bad news for me. 14:46 Okay, let's get going into the next minute here. 14:53 Its 10 seconds. I don't know how you manage to hold 14:59 your arms our straight for so long? 15:03 They are very light? They are, that's true, 15:05 mine are heavier but I won't give you that, yes. 15:10 So, maybe you should hold my arms for a while 15:12 and I will hold yours, how would that be? 15:15 Wouldn't last for long! Okay, and there is 30 seconds 15:29 and 25, now we're down to 20. How we're doing? 15:39 We can stop or we got one more? Let's go for another, 15:41 oh, man there she's goes again, okay. 15:51 So for those of you at home, I imagine you may 15:53 have had to put your arms down maybe ones, 15:56 maybe twice, maybe three times by now. 15:58 That's okay keep hanging in there, bringing back up 16:01 as soon as you can. Okay, but we're gonna stop 16:08 after this one, regardless of what you say, 16:10 no matter what I say, no matter you say, right. 16:17 Okay, it's gonna feel good when we put our arms down. 16:21 Now, we're down to our final 30 seconds okay, yes, alright. 16:32 And now it's down to 20 and 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 16:44 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Oh! Roll the shoulders 16:56 to the back; feels good when it's done though 17:02 doesn't it? Yeah. Oh, yeah. And three more, 17:17 okay go round the other way. So, you must hold 17:24 your arms out every now and then, no, no, now you 17:29 may be a regular watcher of the show. 17:30 Oh! I'm that too. Okay, well that's good, yes. 17:38 When do I was so fit. It's all your doings. 17:44 You're being very kind. I'm also walking everyday. 17:47 That's good and the old saying, growing older is no 17:53 choice but, aging is no choice but growing older 17:56 optional as ever it is it is. Oh, I haven't heard that. 17:59 You haven't heard that, okay well, 18:00 I think I groove to that anyway. Okay, let's step put 18:03 the legs down and let's change directions in, yeah, 18:07 let the shoulders rest for a little while, shaking 18:09 through that. What we did is basically in aerobic 18:18 workout on the upper body and so now 18:21 we're switching over to the legs and we're gonna give 18:22 some cardio work for this area, and although 18:32 we're not getting out of the chair it can still give 18:35 ourselves some pretty good little overall workout. 18:42 Okay, let's pick it up little bit, good, make sure that 18:51 carpets stamp down nice and tight.
