Could a 55 year old lady who is 150 lbs overweight and never exercised use this program?

There are modifications but I wouldn't recommend it. Best to start out with light weights and walking to build strength and cardio and work your way up. There are a lot of other more suitable videos out there to get started!

I would say no, though I am in my 50's and have used for a monthjust as instructed and have seen no results. (used it twice a day)

Yes....it comes with the dirty 30 workout which I happen to like the best. Online support I'm not sure because i never use online support of any exercise program i purchase. I will say this, it does work. You have to stick with it. I am 57 years old and of course hormone issues that have an effect on exercise and food intake. This program worked for me and other people saw the results. I love it and it really works!

Very easy but follow directions and get a helper if you have any concerns about weight. A normal healthy adult will have no problems.

Patricia, Sad to day we did not use this at all. The seniors in our group preferred to do the shallow end exercises. I think that we tried it once and only once. Good luck finding a good program. I had ordered 5 and we only use one of them. Cheryl

How young? It is a full sized machine so I would recommend it for 18 years and over! Always check with your physician before doing any exercise!

It's adjustable and it will be great for her.. You can even try it I'm 21 and it's a great workout!

Only if you actually use it regularly. If you use it as a clothes hangar, stalk it, or use it as a statue it could possibly reduce your tone and fitness. It is an excellent fitness machine; the problem is it does nothing unless you actually use it appropriately. I've lost 20 pounds on mine, just 50 more to go.

My wife and I both have. height and a stable platform are important considerations. In some cases it would be wise to consult a medical expert before beginning exercise programs of any type.

Yes you will. I have horrible balance and 46yrs old and I can ride this. It is a lot of fun and a great workout. I guess I should buy another so I can give this one back to my 9 yr old daughter.

The manual says only those who weigh 250 lbs or less can safely use this treadmill. For your safety I would not recommend you try this one. I have no knowledge of other treadmills so can not guide you.

I wouldn't think so, this little unit is pretty tuff. Im the same height as you and 40-45 lbs less and losing as we write. I really love this unit, and I think as long as you are not too hard on it, it will come through for you. My husband stepped on it and he is 6'5" 290, and it didn't even creak. I'm pretty lazy and this thing has gotten me up and exercising, Im eating better and I have even started my walks outside. I live in the Bay Area and walk along the shore looking at San Francisco. Im losing weight and feeling good. I added 3lb hand weights and use them while im on the stepper. I have a before and I will take an after when Im done. So, good luck, you cannot really go wrong with this. I wouldn't think so, this little unit is pretty tuff. Im the same height as you and 40-45 lbs less and losing as we write.

I'm 74 years of age, so walking is just fine for me. The Exerpeutic 100XI, is never flat. It is designed to be on an incline, high or lower. I guess maybe a younger person could run on it. Like running up a rolling hill in Tennessee.It does have a resistance knob on it to give a better work-out, but I don't use it. It is very easy to lift up and put the locking mechanism into the slot to push the exerciser out of the way next to a wall or such. It is very sturdily built.I really L-O-V-E mine and I think you would LOVE it too!

I wouldn't expect so. This is using your own body weight and nothing else for resistance.

From the manual: "The HealthRider exerciser should not be used by persons weighing more than 250 pounds. The total weight of the user and added weights (not included) should not exceed 300 pounds."

Yes- I am a 61 yr old woman and I have been using this for almost a month. Trying to build muscle mass. No adverse reaction.
