I’ve spent a great amount of time trialling and incorporating the different attachments available at the gym to help with training with a disability. Today I’ll share those discoveries and how that has impacted my programme & approach to my workouts with cerebral palsy.

From rejecting help to embracing the unique path.

Today, I start to unpick how I began to accept and celebrate my disability and gratefully turn challenges into opportunities to find creativity...from driving to fitness!

Reflections on the transition back to the gym, what it means for accessibility in terms of equipment and building a platform to enter my next disability bodybuilding competition later in the year!

Unpicking the mental, physical & emotional lifts that a return to the gym has provided. The platform, the early morning springboard and the gratitude from being able to reconnect with staff, friends and multiple benefits from a renewed routine...
