We have used our slightly quieter COVID time to rethink our gym… this has included a physical revamp rescheduling our gym program, and reviewing the operation and focus of some of our shared sessions.
Enable ME! is for everyone – working at your current capacity no matter what your mobility and targeting underlying impairments to make a functional difference to allow better participation in the activities you want to be doing. The Enable Me program is an individualized strength and conditioning program in a small group (max 3) with the assistance of an Exercise Physiologist. It takes place in our gym with lots of specialized equipment to help work at whatever level you are at. Your program will be designed with input from your Physiotherapist and Exercise Physiologist. You will have at least one session on one to one basis learning the specifics of your exercises and how to use the equipment.
The Enable Me Program aims to:
- Build confidence and knowledge about how to exercise for YOUR body
- Improve specific goal orientated functional changes
