Susan Tuttle: Chair Resistance Band Strength Exercises

I would've given 5 stars, but it took so long to receive it. However, the company resolved the issue quickly.Once received, I was very happy with the dvd. The moves aren't too complicated, she addresses major body parts and I didn't wear myself out.Also, Susan Tuttle is very personable and I found myself smiling along with her during the workout.I'm glad I ordered this product and plan to order more of her products.

This would be a great dvd for a disabled senior. However for a disabled twenty-something, my goals are bigger than being able to step into a bathtub safely or being able to carry groceries in. It's not a bad dvd, just geared more towards elderly people. I would suggest the Wheel-Fit seated aerobics dvd instead for anyone young with a lower limb disability.

I recently came out of an orthopedic walking boot because I sprained my ankle badly. My ankle is not strong enough to fully support my weight for extended periods of time, so I started using this DVD. I love Susan, she is fun in a qwirky way and she makes me smile. This DVD consist of two 30 minute workouts and I like them both. There is enough variety to make the workouts different. The workouts require a band which is included with the DVD. This DVD is good for someone who is recovering from a lower body injury like myself or someone with joint problems. Everything is done in a chair except on one of the workouts, there is a quick section where you try to stand or lift your butt from the chair while working your chest with the band. I try to stand if my leg lets me, otherwise I sit and concentrate on my chest. What you get from this DVD is great stretching exercises from your neck to your feet and also stretching and exercises for your hands and fingers, You also do a fun cardio segment. I really enjoy the resistance/strength training and you get to do a good number of reps. I feel like I am training and rehabbing my body. The video is great quality, the background is bright and colorful and the music is fantastic.

I bought this for RESISTANCE BAND training not a full workout and it's only got approximately 10 minutes per 30 minute workout of resistance band training. Also you can be "perked to death" by Susan Tuttle's forced smiles and perkiness! You can just tell that someone off camera keeps telling her to smile! Oh my goodness! I am looking for an alternative immediately! I guess if you can get past that and you want a full workout with no warm up or cool down phase this is the one for you. Otherwise save your money.

I have another Susan Tuttle DVD--I like her energy and the fairly fast pace of the exercises. They do get my heart pumping. This one has 2 workouts and a lot of variety within each session.

Not very smooth transitions from one exercise to another, but the band was sturdy and the workouts were the perfect length at thirty minutes.

I am 41 years old and about 100 lbs overweight, with little activity. I wanted to start exercising again, slowly and figured this would be a good way to go. Now, I was thinking resistance bands for my legs, this is 85% arms. This is also fairly fast moving. I hated every minute, but just cuz it was exercise:-) I'm sure it will get better. The lady is not annoying, nor is the music.

I like Susan's upbeat attitude. It keeps you goings I'm just disappointed that it doesn't go into more exercises on the one DVD. I'd like it to do leg stretches too.

This DVD with bands solved my exercise problems.I have poor mobility so am not able to exercise ,this solved that problem as I can sit down to exercise.Brilliant.

This DVD so easy to do glad I bought it great listening to her you think she was in the room with you

I expected an exercise video using the band that came with the video. But there was too much chair bound warm up exercises and very little using the band.

The exercises are EXTREMELY basic. As someone else noted Ms. Tuttle is really annoying. At one point she makes a stupid comment to the effect of "let's have some more fun"... or "isn't this fun"... or "make it fun"... something along those lines. All I can say is "fun it ain't"... "boring it is". I adjusted the exercises for standing rather than sitting. It's beyond "basic". Yup... BORING is a good word. There's no challenge. And worst of all Ms. Tuttle needs to learn not to speak to adults like they're little kids. Waste of $$$$$ as far as I'm concerned. Sorry Amazon. This one's a loser.

Liked this for good exercise for chair position! She is fun, without being too obnoxious. For someone who doesn't like exercise or is recovering from injuries,etc., this is pretty good. I do enjoy how she makes it a bit fun by imagining doing other things too. Eg, click your heels like Dorothy. Anyways, her Pilates DVD is even better🤗💕
