Because Life Doesn’t Stop!

A lot of people will have a disability at some stage in their lives. For some, this could be temporary. Others may be affected for a lifetime. Whatever the type of disability is, everyone has the right to be an active member of their community and has a say in the decisions that will affect their way of living.

In Australia, the Disability Discrimination Act protects individuals across Australia from any unfair treatment. It promotes equal rights, opportunity, and access for people with disabilities.

Physical activity plays an important role in maintaining health, well-being, and our quality of life. According to the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, physical activity can help control weight, improve mental health, and lower the risk for early death, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers. Physical activity can also improve mental health by reducing depression and anxiety. For people with disabilities, physical activity can help support daily living activities and independence.

Many adults with disabilities and chronic health issues may participate in regular physical exercise. It is however important to consult a professional in physical activity. This is where Ability Fit Co. comes in.
