[nabs-l] well-described workout routines?

[bookwormahb at earthlink.net]

Hope,
Unfortunately, exercise videos are not very accessible since the audio feedback depends on you seeing the routine.  I'd suggest just moving to music such as jumping jacks, jogging or running in place or maybe jump roping.  An aerobic routine won't be accessible.  If you had someone describe it and you remembered the sequence that would work.  
I either walk outside, go to my gym and use a treadmill or bike or move to music to get exercise.
I also think the best way to get a workout routine is to work with a personal trainer and they give you cardio and strength exercises.  You may not be able to afford that.  But if possible, do it for five sessions.  Its so helpful.

>Hello all. This year, one of my New Year's resolutions is to get in better shape than I have in the past. The closest gym to me is approximately 20 miles away (I live on an island, in Maine). I'm wondering if any well-described workout routines exist? I've tried listening and following the exercise programs on tv, but they are not well-described.
