We all know exercise is good for us, but did you know it can be a real mood-lifter too? That’s right, getting your body moving can boost your energy and leave you feeling happy and positive. Here at Bharosa Community Services, we believe everyone deserves to experience the joy of exercise, including people with disabilities.
That’s why our fantastic support workers can be your very own exercise buddies! They’re here to help you create a safe and personalised routine that fits your needs and abilities. Whether you use a wheelchair or have other limitations, there are so many ways to get active and have fun.
Let’s explore some ideas!
- Hit the park: A gentle stroll in the park is a great way to start. Breathe in the fresh air, soak up the sunshine, and enjoy the scenery. You can even add some upper body exercises by swinging your arms as you walk.
- Water workouts: Water aerobics are a fantastic option, especially if you have limited mobility. The water supports your body, making movement easier and reducing stress on your joints. Just dip your arms in a pool and feel the water while you move your arms.
- Chair exercises: Don’t let a chair hold you back! There are plenty of exercises you can do from the comfort of your seat. Stretches, arm raises, and leg lifts are all great ways to stay active. You can also perform various breathing exercises that are equally effective.
- Roll with it! If you use a wheelchair, there are exercises you can do specifically designed to strengthen your upper body and core. Your support worker can help you find exercises that target the right muscle groups.
Remember, it’s all about finding what works for you!
Our friendly and qualified support workers will be there every step of the way, adapting exercises to suit your needs and keeping you motivated. They’ll help you set realistic goals, celebrate your achievements, and make exercise a fun and rewarding part of your life.
