About this audiobook
A Large-Print 6-Week Program with Seated Movements and Chair-Assisted Steps.
This is a large-print illustrated guide for the over-70 reader who wants to work on steadiness, using seated movement and chair-assisted standing rather than unsupported balance challenges. It contains 19 fully illustrated movements and a 42-day practice calendar, with each session taking about twelve minutes.
WHAT IS INSIDE
- 19 movements, each with a picture sequence, step-by-step instructions, a starting dose, an easier option, a progression note and a safety limit
- A complete 42-day calendar, one page per day, with one thing to pay attention to and space to record how it felt
- Guided warm-up and cool-down you can use with any session
- Illustrated workout cards so you can see the whole session at a glance
- A first-week walkthrough, a troubleshooting chapter, progress logs and a glossary
HOW IT IS PRINTED
Large print throughout, with 18 point body text and no wording shrunk into the pictures. Every instruction is printed at full size, which is what makes this edition comfortable to read while you move.
SAFETY FIRST
Every movement states its own safety limit. The book opens with a safety chapter covering when to check with a health professional, how to choose a chair, what counts as suitable support, and how to judge effort without holding your breath. The standing movements all use a fixed support, and seated alternatives are given.
This is general educational material, not individual medical care. It does not promise weight loss, reversal of ageing, treatment of a condition or prevention of falls.
