just thinking on relatives of mine in that age range or so:
I would say you have to assess if your clients need rehab type programs before they can graduate to normal programs - and the answer might be different for different movements. That is, are they just out of shape and deconditioned or do they have real deficits that you need to bring up to par?
Do you need to work on one-leg balancing with movement and head-turning before moving on to things like lunges? Can she get down on the floor and back up easily and repeatedly- good to know before considering glute bridges or birddogs from the floor. Does she use the arms of the chair to push off when getting up?
Have a progression in mind as well - I think they'll want to know you have a plan.
