    This is great Ashley. I am a Canadian PT and will recommend to some of my older, weaker patients who need to sit to exercise. I like to hear how breathless the routine makes you indicating it is a great workout. A little music would be even more useful as patients often complain exercising is boring. I often remind patients to keep feet flat on floor for improved balance and more muscle engagement. It's great to see you inspired my someone who is less able bodied, who wants to stay healthy and strong. Sharing your energy and knowledge is a wonderful gift. XOX
