How Can You Make Fitness More Accessible For Disabled People?

My Rockin Disabled Life

Hi friends, my name is Sarah and I struggle more than most people because of a condition I have called Spina Bifida. The media has wrongly portrayed the disabled community for many years which makes disabled people face all kinds of discrimination. My hope is to help you better understand what it means to be disabled and what it is not.

    So many good suggestions here. “I do wish fitness trainers would keep the disabled community in mind when creating workouts” – you know, I don’t think I’m aware of any disability-friendly fitness trainers/DVDs etc. There are basic things like chair workouts or exercises for the elderly, but not really disability per se. Prices being more affordable would be very helpful too! xx

      Thank you and yes there are plenty of workouts for the elderly and chair workouts but I wouldn’t call them disability friendly! Affordable prices would encourage more people to start a fitness journey especially when you can only do half the exercises because you shouldn’t have to pay full price when you can’t do everything a program provides.
