What about Jane Fonda's last workout set?
I personally don't believe in age defined workouts since people the same age aren't in the same shape. You probably have to modify your workouts to work the muscle and not the joint, something that Margaret Richard, turning 70 this year, believes in. She is trying to get funding for another PBS series, which will be an uphill battle, sadly.

Thanks everyone for your replies! Looks like you might've save me some money. Then again I'm off to look for some of your recommendations unless anyone has any for trade. I don't have a list posted but have a ton of dvds! Imagine that!

Angie Miller did Absolute Beginners - Cardio & Strength Training Workout for Seniors, probably one of my favorites of this type of workout.
I like some of Susan Tuttle's workouts. My favorite was the circuit workout - it gave lots of options. Not a senior workout, but Liquid Grooves is one they'll have to pry out of my cold, dead hands. Walk Your Way Slim is a one for me these days with all of the options it gives. Scott Cole's Chair Strength & Stretch (the older DVD, not the newest one) is another favorite that I save for when I'm not feeling well and would do well for when I get older. Good luck finding something that works for you.

You can't go wrong with Jane Adams. Her gentle yoga is actually gentle. Her Yoga for Seniors is very good!

Classical Stretch, any, and in particular Miranda's "Aging Backwards" series.
