DVD Reviews of Skeletal Fitness by Mirabai Holland - Osteoporosis Prevention Bone Loading and Strength Training Exercises:A Workout For Bones
DVD Review: great workout
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this dvd. Mirabai shows you how to do the movement, you just have to watch her carefully. She tells you to slow down if it is too much for you. I have been doing this dvd for about 5 weeks using it about 3 times a week. I love it. DVD Review: Fabulous
Summary: 5 Stars
Skeletal Fitness by Mirabai Holland has been a great help to me. I was diagnosed with Osteoporosis several months ago. I was told I had to be careful the way I positioned my body doing exercise. Mirabai Holland starts the DVD with loads of information regarding Osteoporosis and body alignment. Her workout is easy to follow yet you can work as hard as you want. As you learn the exercise you can do more reps and add weights. I found this one of the best exercise DVDs I have purchased. After going through the workout I feel stronger and limber. I highly recommend this exercise for woman. Prevent Osteoporosis! I wish I started these exercises years ago to prevent the disease. Now that I have Osteoporois I hope to hault it before it gets worse. DVD Review: Mirabai Rocks! A Skeletal Workout for the Rest of Us ;>
Summary: 5 Stars
Just like "the perfect jeans" are a very personal choice for one's body and style, so are workout DVDs. "Skeletal Fitness" is not intended for the younger (or wanna-be) exercisers willing and able to punish themselves into their perception of the perfect physique. If you desire a workout that aims for total fatigue in all muscle groups, look elsewhere. There are plenty of other choices for you, right here on Amazon.
I, on the other hand, am so glad to have discovered this DVD. Mirabai's sound content and gentle instructional style totally support the recommendations of Osteopaths and Neurologists for patients with skeletal conditions including osteoporosis. This DVD is a better return on investment than endless Physical Therapist visits for limited and boring exercises.
Mirabai's variations on standing leg exercises(with or without ankle weights) are among the stronger and more unique segments. These are great isometrics for the legs, hips, and glutes without the stress of floor work. The wrist strengthening moves actually stopped my chronic condition of painful right forearm "snaps."
As for the "ballet pellets" (?), no problem. Just put your hands on a side wall and turn your head towards the TV. If that is too much, place your hands on the back of a sturdy chair to perform the important hip and leg moves.
As time marches on, many of Mirabai's critics may be joining us. The Surgeon General predicts that by 2020, half of all Americans aged 50 and over will have osteopenia or osteoporosis. "Skeletal Fitness" fills a void for those of us who are ahead of this curve.

Skeletal Fitness by Mirabai Holland - Osteoporosis Prevention Bone Loading and Strength Training Exercises:A Workout For BonesIf you have any exercise experience don't purchase this item. It is more for seniors who have have been sedentary their whole lives. It's really slow with exercises that are way to easy. If you're looking for something that will give you a good work out this is not the product for you.DVD Review: This Lady Knows her "Stuff"
Summary: 5 Stars
I was so pleased with this DVD. Mirabai is a no-nonsense trainer who explains every move in detail and provides great information about osteoporosis. She is fit, but not a hard-body beauty so one doesn't feel intimidated. She is calm and thorough. It is as though she is in the room with you. I am in my 70's and I can keep up with the exercises for the most part. If I tire, I just pause and wait for the next group of exercises or continue with the program the next day. There are a variety of exercises for every part of the body. I prefer to use a stretch band in place of the towel and a hand towel for the hand wringing exercise however. I am not ready for the ankle weights yet, but soon! I am anxiously waiting for two more of her DVDs that I have purchased to arrive. She is the untimate trainer in my opinion!
