"Finally, somebody's come up with a piece of equipment that speaks directly to seniors...That makes them feel comfortable, stable, and supported,” explains Kathy Stevens, a Southern California-based kinesiologist who uses the Resistance Chair to teach senior fitness classes. “What it means is that in the privacy of their own homes, using the instructional DVDs, people are able to get the strength they need to do everyday functional things, to bend, to lift, etc."
