In reply to Sharon.

Hi Sharon,
All the exercises on this site are meant to assist people at all levels to reach their goals. I don’t want to make them too hard or too easy for any person. I have lost 120 pounds and have more to go so I understand obesity. My whole family fights this issue. If you are not able to get on the floor, use the modifications until you can some day. I’m sorry that my tutorial made you choke. I hope you can find something useful in the information that you can use. And work your way to doing more day by day. Thank you for checking it out.

Floor exercises mentioned do not take into account the ability of morbidly obese participants to do so. Also elderly or joint replacements not taken into account for those wishing to embark on an exercise program. HOWEVER, chair and slow progressive standing/bending exercises (of course participant chosen) with setting a very incremental buildup should be mentioned. I choke at the pictures of floor exercises and fast forward to other sites addressing ability exercises for same. You don’t have to be wheelchair bound but exercises on the floor…do you realize morbidly obese participants have difficulty with that? The integration / pictorals are enough to deter the mindset to proceed. Am I missing something??? Getting on all fours…really????

Hi Mary,
I recommend just using a sturdy kitchen chair that you already have or a good sturdy folding chair. You don’t want it to be too fluffy and not one that would fold up on you. Thanks for checking out the article!

I am going to start working out with your chair yoga and your other exercises. I want to buy a chair to work out. Do you have any recommendations what type of chair to use for exercising?

It can be either way, depending on where you are at in your fitness journey. If you feel like you can walk for 25 minutes, go ahead, if you feel like 15 minutes challenges you, then do it as part of the 15. Thank you for checking out our article!

Is the 5-minute warm up and 5-minute cool down included in the 15 minutes of walking?
