Fitness is a struggle for disabled people (for all the wrong reasons)
This is a subject near to my heart as I have worked for several years in the health care industry, most recently with adults who have suffered traumatic brain injury. Exercise and fitness is a huge part of the rehab process for these individuals, and if you think it's hard for you to get in (or stay in) healthy shape just imagine how it must be for someone with major physical limitations and little to no available facilities or equipment to work with.Unfortunately the social perception seems to be that disabled individuals are unhealthy and unable to take part in anything physical, or that they're a liability in a gym setting, or that they simply can't do it or aren't interested. I can say from experience how largely untrue these ideas are, but they are not going to change unless, and until, we all take ownership for our own misconceptions.
