  • Getting a Walker for Exercise?

    Posted by matt-lafleur on March 6, 2019 at 12:11 pm

    I am a full-time wheelchair user, and have been for about ten years.

    I am wondering about seeing if I can get a walker, for cheap or free.

    I am not getting it for everyday use, but as exercise once a day.

    Is this a good idea? Is it even realistic?

    For me it’s not realistic for me to use a walker. I used one back in the day but sadly I’m not able to use one. If you feel that you are able to use one get one. Do you have a standing frame Matt? That would be excellent to have one so as you stand blood flows through your body.
