Hi andyyates,

Am no expert in this area, however Apple does provide a handy user guide for Fitness +
Eg: If you haven't already:
You may want to: See personalized recommendations in Apple Fitness+ - Apple Support
or
You might want to look through the "Table of Contents" in the Apple Fitness+ User Guide - Apple Support for any hints or tips you can use.
Looking beyond Fitness +
Others with similar experiences seem to say that he upper body exercises can be done while seated.
Third-party (non-Apple) discussion thread: Strength workouts that can be done seated
Now that your discussion is under way, perhaps others may also contribute their experience.
All the best :-)
Thank you kindly for looking though those suggestions, and for taking the time to reply.

Seems the App Store has "chair fitness" apps you can download.
(Sorry I have no idea whether or not any listed below could be recommended.)
NB: Please be aware some "free" apps may have "in-app" purchases.
(You can check the descriptions / details before downloading any app,
and check compatibility with your device.)

There are also many YouTube videos with seated exercises online:

Hi
Thanks for your response.
I had a look through the table of contents and tried a few searches, but there seemed to very little.
I found to “core for older adults” and “strength for older adults” but this was all I could find.
I’ve had a look at the third party thread you suggest and there seemed to be a few ideas there. Thanks
Thanks.
I’ll take a dig through these and see where it leads.
Your welcome! Thank you :-)
What seated exercises can I do on Fitness Plus?
