I'm asking for friend who's in her late 60's and has had several back surgeries so she can't get down on the floor at all. She's looking for some beginner workouts just to get herself moving again. Any ideas?

    She could look into Fitnessblender. Their videos are on Youtube. They have several that say beginner. She would just have to search through them. She could always skip any part that she couldn't do. Most of these videos are fairly short and have more than one round, so I do one round of one type of workout (ex. legs) then do one round of another type (ex. arms). Just an idea.

    ETA: I have also heard of Leslie Sansone's walking videos (they are on Youtube as well). All they are is walking with different movements.... no floor! I haven't used these personally, but have heard people talk about them on MFP and looked into them just to see what they are all about.
