I wondered if anyone can recommend a good exercise DVD? I've tried a few at my daughter's house but they caused flares.

Thank you!

Try yoga or ti-chi (?). They are gentle.

I have used a video by Leslie Sansone called the 1,2 3 Mile Super Fat Burner. I think that's the name. She has many walking in place videos and most are DVD's but this one is a VHS tape. I've never gotten a flare from it.

If you do it for 15 minutes. It's like you've walked one mile. Two minutes equals two miles, etc. Some aerobics is thrown in there, too. I only have done it for fifteen minutes.

What I really like is it's easy and I know what to do now so I can do this while watching a TV program instead of running the tape. It helps with boredom.

You might check out "Stretching for Seniors" with Ann Smith. It's for anyone over 50, or really for anyone who would like more flexibility.

I just did a search on it and it's available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Also, Ann Smith has exercises on YouTube.

For me, it's easier to have a simple exercise routine of my own. I do several stretching exercises that I've found on YouTube and it seems to help my stiffness.

Hope this helps. Have a great day! :)
