You do not have to be a paralysis lawyer to know that there is no one on the planet who cannot benefit from some exercise in their daily lives.
For those with spinal cord injuries, it is especially important that fitness is integrated into their life so that they keep their bodies in the best condition possible.
People with paralysis run a higher risk of becoming obese after they are paralyzed. This is usually because when you are living with paralysis there is a shift in metabolism, decrease in muscle mass, and all around lower activity level.
Making sure that exercise is done on a routine basis ensures that muscles remain strong and weight stays away. You can do a variety of recreational activities even with paralysis, including:
- Swimming
- Basketball
- Free Weights
- Cycling
- Archery
Arms and shoulders are especially critical to maintain because they usually are the muscles used to push wheelchairs and allow those with paralysis to be mobile, but like any type of exercise, it is all good for you.Our San Diego firm's paralysis lawyers want to remind you to stay active. Stay fit. Stay healthy.
