As this is our final 6D post featuring Angela Fischetti's amazing playlist to help us all fight Osteoporosis, we leave you with what she calls a Super Set! Our series may have come to an end, but Angela continues to produce amazing videos regularly and you can find her latest videos on her YouTube Channel - Boomer and Beyond Wellness. We are grateful to have been able to share these videos with you and for Angela's dedication to helping us all become stronger, healthier and for getting us all moving!
"Today's Total Body Workout leans toward Intermediate and was inspired by my recent move. Today's video offers us Bending, specifically Spine Flexion and Spine Extension. I found myself doing lots of both during my move! This workout is founded in functional exercises and ADLs which are Activities of Daily Living; these are very important to the demographic of this channel. We are super setting 3 sets of 8-15 reps; super set means two exercises, back to back, without rest. 3 blocks of super sets with one stand alone exercise." - Angela

For those with chronic concerns, read Suggested Practices At-A-Glance below. It is part of her mission to make sure those of us with chronic concerns are not forgotten and not dismissed because of these concerns. We can figure out a safe approach to encourage you to return to exercise or begin your new journey, with an open mind and a different attitude, not cultivated in negativity.
SAFETY FIRST! SUGGESTED PRACTICES AT-A-GLANCE
1 - Before exercising to any video, please show the video to the medical healthcare practitioner who best knows your medications and your body to help you make an informed decision about exercising and what equipment to use during exercise.
2 - Make sure your workout space is well lit, free of clutter and of comfortable temperature.
3 - Make sure your workout equipment is safe, i.e. use chairs without wheels and exercise on a hard, flat surface -- no throw rugs.
4 - Do not eat full meals 2-3 hours prior to exercise.
5 - Stay hydrated during workout unless you have kidney or bladder issues.
6 - Always wear closed-toed shoes, preferably sneakers or aqua shoes.
7 - Always follow suggested modifications.
8 - Exercise equipment is suggested but not required in order to safely execute each workout.

From Angela ... "YES YOU CAN! I'm so glad you're here. If you're looking for 50+ exercise, tips and equipment demos, you've come to the right place. Those of us who struggle with chronic illness, injury or limited mobility might focus on what we can't do. I'm here to help you with what you CAN DO! I'm 65 years young and I help clients over age 50 -- and sometimes well beyond 90! -- to achieve wellness. As a specialist in senior fitness, I've helped hundreds of clients achieve wellness through intelligent and safe exercise coaching. The knowledge gleaned from overcoming my own health struggles -- always a work in progress! -- helps me help you!"
