Why should I respect a fat young person whio gives exercise advice to seniors when she can't even get the breathing technique right? Besides, you're a year late, you jerk. :-)

@richhutchison : This line: "What makes this young and fat person an expert on Seniors?

Took some courses, huh?"

You crossed the line of respectful criticism when you wrote the above.

[richhutchison]

@momboteri

What line it that?

[momboteri]

@richhutchison : Though I agree with you on breathing instruction (and this should be common knowledge, so I am surprised that her instruction is backward), I don't think her fitness level or age has to be high in order to have knowledge of how to work with seniors. Your end remarks are unkind and out of line.

You rock sue conrad

how do i get rid of the captions so i can see the video?

[richhutchison]

Breathing instructions are backward.

You should exhale on the way up

and inhale on the way down.

The rule is EXhale on EXertion.

She later says that you should exhale

when you're doing most of the work,

which is correct, but in this exercise,

most of the work is done on the way up.

What makes this young and fat person an expert on Seniors?

Took some courses, huh?
