The online lifestyle magazine, Disability Horizons, has put together this handy guide to getting fitter and healthier.
A new year often brings with it a desire to get fit and healthy. But grand plans can fall flat if you overstretch yourself. Here, we share a range of tips and advice, along with gadgets, to help you kick start your fitness goals – and stick to them throughout 2022.
A great place to start is one of our most popular articles of all time – 10 exercises for disabled people – and our recent round-up of exercise equipment for disabled people.
It includes a pedal exerciser and hand exerciser, as well as the Active Hands gripping aids to help anyone with weak grip hold and use exercise equipment at home or in the gym.
