Building Physical Activity into the Daily Routine for People with Disabilities

Regular physical activity is a core factor in maintaining muscle strength and cardiovascular health for people with disabilities, but finding "a separate hour for exercise" is difficult for most families.
An approach built into the routine
Activities already done daily — dressing, transfers, play — can be turned into opportunities for therapeutic movement with small adjustments. That reduces the need for "extra time."
Graded increase matched to capacity
The programme starts from the person's current physical capacity and progresses in small, measured steps; big jumps are both unsafe and unsustainable.
The role of motivation
Play-based activities matched to the person's interests reduce the feeling of "doing exercise," making participation easier.
