Biking and swimming are the most recommended exercises. Soccer is not recommended, that is what my Doctor told me.

It depends on what sort of activities you seek.  \n\nAre you looking for therapeutic or educational activities, or are you looking for social activities?\n\nYou might want to search for Cerebral Palsy activities, as they are often geared toward people with nonverbal or quadriplegic disabilities.  \n\nAnother thing to look into, if it's at all possible, is horseback riding.  It tends to be extremely beneficial for those who try it as a method of pleasurable therapy.

First you must consult a good paediatrist and a neurologist. They would prescribe the exact medication. Thereafter some regular exercising to provide limb mobility and coordination, which should be done by a specialized physiotherapist. \n\nI suggest you consult All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS, New Delhi)

Pilates is good in that it does not involve a lot of jumping around.\n\nThe stretching and muscle-strengthening techniques also help to alleviate the pain that results from the sedate life-style of those suffering from physical disability.

Try communications and attempt to become a reporter for that team, a broadcaster, or media technology. A lot of pro sport teams have these in order to keep their company running and the guys playing. In addition, they want highly trained people in order to fulfill these goals.

Before beginning any wheelchair exercise regime it is important to consult a doctor or physical therapist to determine which wheelchair exercises you are capable of. Enlisting a certified personal trainer can be helpful as they can design sensible work-outs, teach you to use fitness equipment properly, help transfer you from gym machines and motivate you. \n\nTo perform wheelchair exercises safely and effectively: \n\n\nWarm up 5 to 10 minutes with stretches before and after workouts. \nUse proper posture. \nStart with a lighter warm-up weight - then increase gradually between sets. \nBreathe - exhale as you lift, inhale as you lower weights. \nDrink plenty of water. \nEat a light meal or snack at least 1 hour before exercising. \nIf you feel faint - stop or take a break.\n\nBeneficial wheelchair exercises: \n\nResistance Training - uses resistance bands (large, stretchy rubber bands), secured to a door handle, pole, hook or even the arm of a wheelchair. These are pulled towards or away from you to work muscles. Elbow and leg extensions, shoulder and trunk rotations, back, neck and shoulder pull downs, are all possible with resistance bands. Resistance bands generally come in low, medium and high resistances. \n\nStrength Training - with free weights, fitness machines or dumbbells will increase the intensity and should only be performed once resistance training exercises become too easy. \n\n\nBiceps Curl\nStrengthens upper-arm muscles. \n\nSit with your back supported by back of chair. \nKeep feet flat on floor even with your shoulders. \nHold hand weights straight down at your sides, with palms facing inward. \nSlowly bend one elbow, lifting weight toward chest. (Rotate palm to face shoulder while lifting weight.) \nHold position for 1 second. \nSlowly lower arm to starting position. Pause. \nRepeat with other arm. \nAlternate arms until you have done 8 to 15 repetitions with each arm. \nRest; then do another set of 8 to 15 alternating repetitions.\n\nArm Raise\nStrengthens shoulder muscles. \n\nSit with your back supported by back of chair. \nKeep feet flat on floor even with your shoulders. \nHold hand weights straight down at your sides, with palms facing inward. \nRaise both arms to side, shoulder height. \nHold the position for 1 second. \nSlowly lower arms to sides. Pause. \nRepeat 8 to 15 times. \nRest; then do another set of 8 to 15 repetitions. \n\nTriceps Extension\n\nStrengthens muscles in back of upper arm. Keep supporting your arm with your hand throughout the exercise. \n\nSit with your back supported by back of chair. \nKeep feet flat on floor even with shoulders. \nHold a weight in one hand. Raise that arm straight toward ceiling, palm facing in. \nSupport this arm, below elbow, with other hand. \nSlowly bend raised arm at elbow, bringing hand weight toward same shoulder. \nSlowly straighten arm toward ceiling. \nHold position for 1 second. \nSlowly bend arm toward shoulder again. Pause. \nRepeat the bending and straightening until you have done the exercise 8 to 15 times. \nRepeat 8 to 15 times with your other arm. \nRest; then do another set of 8 to 15 alternating repetitions.

the best place to get that infomation is from organisations that help support disabled people and their carers - try asking your or their doctor about who to contact.

a club for challenged kids.\nWhat a wonderful idea.  My daughter in law in Florida is a teacher for\nchildren with disabilities.\nGet a club together from the students who would like to help, quite possibly some teachers would like to get involved. \nMy twin brother, had been in a wheelchair all his life. He cannot even feed himself.  However, because of the way we treated him, never as handicapped, and the teacher would come home to teach him............\nHe is smarter than me......Pays more attention, because he cannot walk fast, run etc.....the electric wheelchair I purchased for him......That was his freedom!!    He flys to Florida etc, my son's pick him up.\nIf your question is still on line, I will be speaking with my daughter in law and maybe I can give you more ideas.\nWhen we help them to help themselves, and give them hope..It's great!!\nYou are certainly one VIP in this world!!!!\nLater I hope to get back to you.
