By Jose Stevens


Men and women who have survived life threatening accidents or diseases often live to live another day. However, when they go home, it does not necessarily mean they are a hundred percent ok. Sometimes, even after recovery they are still unable to do certain tasks or are forever disabled as a result of their injuries. Due to this, their actions and activities become limited to ensure their health and safety.

In order to slowly gain their independence back, they are advised to do a number of methods and techniques. This includes going to individual or group therapy sessions, wherein they must continue the techniques learned at home. To help in this task, there are numerous Disability Strengthening Videos available for free on the internet. Below are some of the best exercises a disabled person can do from them.

A common area in the body that becomes weak is the lower portion, which includes the legs and feet. A basic action to try is to sit down, and while resting your hands on an armrest, lower yourself down to the floor. Afterwards, pull yourself up again to a seated position.

Another one is doing seated tricep dips by placing your hands on the arm rests of a chair or your own wheelchair. You must push yourself up until the arms of the person become extended to its full length. After which, they may lower themselves back down to a fully seated position once more. This is useful, especially for individuals who are making use of a wheelchair to get around.

The muscle which surrounds the hips, which allows an individual to bend in various angles is called the hip flexors. In order to increase flexibility and increase the chances of bending, one can try bending each leg at a time and raising it to the highest point possible. Take note, this should be done alternately.

Once you have regained the strength in your legs, you can slowly transition into walking exercises. There are numerous videos that feature this act, which you can imitate. The simplest method would be mustering the strength to stand up without any support, then taking a few baby steps. This should not be done right away because the muscles found in your legs should be warmed up first, in order to avoid fatigue.

The abdominal muscles should also be considered here because these are an essential part of the human body. The best course of action would be to do some reverse crunches. This is done by going into a seated position with the knees bent over at a ninety degree angle. Afterwards, the body is then lowered backwards slowly until the person is lying flatly. The process is then repeated several times to achieve the desired effect.

Shoulder muscles are needed so that a man or woman can carry heavy objects above their heads. This is possible even for disabled persons, through viewing and following a video that teaches the seated shoulder press. Take note though, this requires weights to conduct.

All in all, stated above are the most useful exercises found in strengthening videos. By doing these exercises regularly, a disabled person can slowly build up their strength and move again on their own. However, one must also have the determination, perseverance, and hours of hard work to do so.
