3 Ways of Doing Workout for Disabled People

Health must be prioritized, so doing workout is necessary for those who love their body, especially for disabled people. As Scott Hamilton says, “the only disabilities in life is bad attitude”, we have three ways to recommendation for you people who still wants to do workout despite of your disability. Before we start, if you’re worried about your physical condition, we advise you to consult to your doctor first. Now, if you’re ready, let’s check it out!

1. Roller Chair Workout

Find an open area without carpet and use chair with casters on the bottom (your wheelchair is also okay). Propel yourself using your hands and/or legs. If your hand and neck is in fine condition, you can also do chair yoga poses, dynamic and static stretches, and maybe pulling dumbbells.

2. Dancing

Dancing is literally for everyone! You can dance in your bed, chair, or stability ball. Put on your favorite music and dance with minimalist and consistent movement. You can also put on your wristband, ankle weights, or resistance band to optimize your exercise.

3. Hula Hoops

For beginners, you better start using Frisbee rings or small sized hula hoops. Put them on both of your arms and spin circularly clockwise/counter-clockwise. You can do this fun workout twice a week. If you’re feeling tired, don’t strain yourself. Take a rest, it’s important, too.
