Certified instructor description: Designed for anyone with Diabetes who prefers working out while sitting down. The entire program is done seated in a chair (although Mary Ann demonstrates some moves standing next to the chair while Lori remains seated). The program is designed to improve circulation, increase flexibility and tone muscles. The movements include breath exercises, stretches and range-of-motion routines (e.g. circling the arms overhead). A small golf ball-type ball is also used for some exercises (e.g. manipulating it with the fingers or rolling bare feet on it for sensory stimulation). It ends with a short guided relaxation segment. Mary Ann Wilson, RN and Lori McCormick, PT are experienced seniors’ instructors — always calm and very supportive (never condescending). Also includes a short medical information segment on Diabetes. Requires a small ball. ©2006. DVD has: Chapter menus.

Sit and Be Fit: Diabetes Workout

Good Diabetic Work out and care instructions.
This is great for use to get started in an exercise class for Diabetics. but I would only use it once or twice a month with other tapes for inspiration. - posted by Barbara on 4/26/2011
Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
