Thank you Tona for this excellent video for seniors; I have been using this video since 2019 when I could not go to class during the pandemic. I have also used your more recent videos for seniors as well as other RUclips videos but I always go back to this one; it is the best and my favorite.
Good Morning Tona, Just wanted to let you know that even though it has been 4 years since you created this video, it is still giving others better health and joyfulness! I love that you use bands, weights and ball together. I feel like I accomplished a big challenge! What do you know, I did! Thank you so much for all your time, effort, and talents you share with others! Have a healthy and blessed day! Jaquetta from Ocala, Florida!
Hi Tona, I think it is very interesting to exercise with bands, weights and a ball together. I watch your videos almost every morning, you are very motivating. Many thanks for your workouts, Catherine in France
I have attended SILVER SNEAKERS CLASSES for the last 2 1/2 years. Attendance 2-3 times a week helped me to settle into a new neighborhood and got me through treatment for A-fib. Then came social distancing! I had found Tona's videos before and used them when the weather was bad. After 8 weeks of just occasional walks my upper back and shoulders were like a block of wood. I was in such pain! After 3 sessions in the past week (this one is my favorite, I think), I feel like a new person. Thank you, Tona.
Awesome news Peg!! You know that I have been on live Monday through Friday at 10:30AM, EST. If you haven't already subscribed to my channel, do so, and you can join in😊 Next Monday will be at 10...I start back up in the gym, but just on Monday. Tuesday through Friday will be live from my home.💪🏻🎶❤️
We are housebound due to the Corona19 virus pandemic. This video is an excellent tool to keep the exercise routine going. We do the first 12 minutes every day and the complete one every 3 days. Thank you Tona!
@@TonasFitnessWarriors Actually, I just discovered them today! So yes, I may not do them live, but after the fact when I am able. I really appreciate your lively approach and it gets my heartbeat up plus it covers total body! Thanks and keep it up, I am 70 and still working but keeping fit is important to me! And I'm in So Georgia!
Hi .. I tried to get on your website but my computer has old software and can't get on the site. So, I will be on RUclips videos from my TV. Wishing you success on your new site. Stay Healthy, Happy and Hugs
I've been exercising on my smart TV from the start. That's why I can't comment until I get on my out dated computer..lol Thanks .. I did a Yoga chair exercise and it was wonderful
All of your senior fitness videos have been an absolute lifesaver during our 'lockdown' here in Ohio . I am used to going to the Y every day and working out. Your classes have taken the place of that and I can do a different one every day . Love the work out , love seeing the people in your class , and love the music. I am now going to try your new workouts that you have just posted . I cannot thank you enough . Not only have you helped me stay fit in my body, but also my mind ! I told several others about you , including my sister.
Hi Tona. I somehow found you shortly after COVID shut down my gym and its senior classes. Thank you for keeping me moving, happy and healthy! I recently became the new senior group exercise instructor at my gym. I'm not yet totally up to speed on my official training so today I used this SeniorFitness by Tona 2 video in class. How? While I watched you on my tablet, your audio could be heard by me and the participants, and I modeled your moves. Occasionally I paused the video to clarify cues and form. It worked, and the class loved it! After class I shared the video with those who asked, so your fan base is growing by leaps and bounds. I'm a huge fan of yours, thank you Tona! ~ TL
Came back to this one as I wanted to mix up my workouts a bit and the chair one is a great one , plus I always enjoy seeing the actual people in the class during this lockdown ,since I am not going back to our Y yet. I only wish we knew names to go with the faces , besides Marcia , whose smile once again made the work out more fun . When "Forever Young " was playing I couldn't help thinking that now she is exactly that . " Forever Young" . And thank you again for helping us stay feeling that way , even if some of us have bodies that are not so young any more !
I love your workout, Tona! You cover everything in just the right amount of time. I'm 83 and challenged just enough. The most difficult part for me is the balance exercises. If you could give any tips on how to improve, I'd really appreciate it!
Hi Genie! Remember your arms and legs are extensions of your core. Start there and focus into the standing leg that should have a soft bend in the knee and your whole foot should be engaged into the ground
Once again I came back to this one , as time wise it was exactly what I was looking for. I had forgotten how good it is . Yes, we are in chair mostly but wow, your work out is so good for all parts of the body. Again loved seeing all the people and again, loved seeing Marcia's smile. Since I just got my first co-vid vaccine yesterday it seemed appropriate to choose one with her in it and to dedicate my work out to her. Namaste .
@@TonasFitnessWarriors Oh so sorry to hear that. What a tragedy - you can see her positive energy on great sprit on this video. No doubt she is missed very much.❤
I've done this 2 months ago and enjoyed the exercise again. However, I can't give you another thumbs up .. be well, be safe, be healthy and happy .. Thank you
It must be the color of your t-shirt that I'm back on this workout. Sorry, I can't click. Happy training too. Thanks from TV land .. Stay healthy and happy .. see you soon
This is a great workout, Tona! I just stand to do the exercises with the resistance bands! I have done this several times and would recommend it to all of my oldies but goodies. :)) This will keep grandmas in shape for sure!
We love doing your videos since we cannot go to classes any more because of covid. You are a wonderful silver sneakers instructor! How do we keep ads from popping up?
This is by far the best workout for seniors. I use it as my daily execise. The newly added ads are making it unwatachable. Please see if you can get them all at the beginning or the end.
USE YOUR VIDEO IN MY WORKOUT CLASS..RECENTLY SOMEONE STOLE YOUR WORKOUT VIDEO (AMONG OTHER EQUIPMENT) WHICH YOU KINDLY SENT TO ME A FEW YEARS AGO. PLEASE ADVISE HOW I GET A REPLACEMENT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR WONDERFUL WORKOUT AND ASSISTANCE. HARRIETT RUBIN..ASBURY PARK, NJ
I just found your classes a couple days ago. They are great! İ usually have gone to the gym and did the elliptical machine. But since the lockdown I found your channel and realize I need more variety with balance and strength training. So from now on I will do your classes even when the lockdown ends. This was one great benefit from the lockdown. What kind of balls do you use? Are they weighted and what size? Thank you so much again!!
The balls are a six inch playground ball. You can find them through Amazon. If you want something that is weighted, I would suggest nothing heavier than 2-4 pounds. I’m glad your enjoying my workouts!!😊💪🏼💕
Betsy, I am so sorry I haven't gotten back to you sooner. The music is a compilation that I put together using fitness music I already had purchased. I am glad you love the workout.
Hey Tona! I Love the video that starts with YMCA MUSIC 🎶!!,!!!,!! I FEEL SO MUCH ALIVE , ENCOURAGED, AND MOTIVATED TO DO WORKOUTS TO UPLIFTING 🎵 MUSIC LIKE THIS ONE!!!!,!!!!! CAN YOU DO MORE WITH MUSIC AND GIVE US POSITIVE ENCOURAGING QUO😮TES TIPS NUTRITIONAL STUFF 🙏 ANYTHING HAPPY❤ THAT SPEAKS LIFE 🙏 LOVE ❤POSITIVE ATTITUDE🎉❤ PLUS SOME WONDERFUL WORK FOR THE WAISTLINE, MUFFIN TOPS, AND BELLY FAT ABDOMEN AREA?? 🙏 GOD BLESS YOU 🙏 AND MERRY 🎄 CHRISTMAS ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️!!! ETC. !!!!!❤❤❤
Hi Susan. I wish I could use this music. It’s not royalty free. I wouldn’t be able to get away with it if I want to continue to monetize my videos. I do plan on doing some nutritional videos eventually. Life is crazy at the moment. The future is nearing to build my website and work from there.
I still can't click this video after 1 month. This is similar to the BALL exercise you are trying to create. Do you know how to CUT and edit the segments? You can create the 3 short videos. Notice, you are using a microphone and the audio is perfect and no echo. Be well, be safe, be healthy and be happy. Thank you
You can order them through Amazon or any sports store. Maybe even Target. Just remember, yellow easy, green, red, blue, purple hard. I usually use red. It's just right for me for these particular classes.😊💪🏻❤️🎶
I know this video is several years old, but they are saving my life as a new Silver Sneakers instructor. I have no resources to use so thank you!
Same here

I’m so sorry you were so sick. I’m glad you are better now!🙏🏼❤️😊
