By Amy Reynolds


When a disabled person is not able to access a well equipped gym it becomes hard for them to work out or have the need to be active. Instead of resolving to laziness or giving up one should take up home workouts that will make the experience much easier. Disability strengthening videos are made available for them by trainers so that you can access anytime.

Due to varying strength and levels of fitness for different people one may require to vary the way they do the sets but it is advisable to do three sets each having ten reps. The break between one set and the next one should be a minute and the sequence should be repeated twice. In cardiovascular trainings it would be appropriate to do without breaks and once you finish you can then rest.

When dealing with exercises where the lower body is weak and the upper is fine then you do activities such as sitting and standing since they will assist strengthening the feet. If one feels weak to stand upright and then go back to the normal sitting position then the option of holding on to the knees would help do this better.

Some people could be having serious weaknesses on the legs and may not be able to stand and sit on their own and in this case support bar on the wall is needed and appropriate. While on the wheel chair due to inabilities such as stroke, lower paralysis or obesity among others which have some control on the bodys lower part stand and sit exercises are so helpful to get into shape.

Seated triceps dips involve one sitting on an arm chair and then raising the body by the arms only and not involving the waste and then returning to the sit using the arms again. This activity will assist one to get of the wheel chair to the bed for instance without help and ne can alternatively use the feet for more support in case the arms are not well up to the task. When continued practice of this is observed the chest muscles are strengthened.

On another task one can have two chairs a distance apart where you have to stand and walk to the other and then sit, stand and walk back to the former sit and keep repeating the sequence multiple times. This will help strengthen the feet by standing and most definitely the walking becomes evident to the patient whether they do it with the help of another person holding on to them or by using crutches.

The knee to stand can be demonstrated by kneeling down and bring one feet in front and lifting the body upwards until you can stand upwards. With the arms by the sides the person should then come back down and kneel on the floor. This is usually challenging but in the long run will strengthen the body and assist in balance, mobility and even stability.

There is also the practice of kneeling and standing where you place your arms on the side and then put one foot forward in front and then lift the whole body to a standing position and repeat this several times.
