Wheelchair Training: A Complete Strength and Conditioning Program for Men and Women with Spinal Cord Injuries, written by Steve Ramsbottom, owner of Performance Institute, British Columbia, Canada; Foreword by three-time Paralympic Gold Medalist Marni Abbott-Peter.
Wheelchair Training is a great resource for anyone in a wheelchair, and for trainers who work with wheelchair athletes. This book teaches you how to decrease and eliminate pain, how to increase joint stability, and how to assess and apply corrective exercises to guarantee peak athletic performance.
“My clients tell me they’re able to perform movements they haven’t done in years,” says Ramsbottom, who also works as a personal trainer to A-list actors such as Hugh Jackman and David Duchovny. “One client in specific was able to use his non-dominant arm to turn on a light switch, which he hadn’t been able to do since his accident.”
Ramsbottom’s training program has been adopted by some of the best wheelchair athletes in the world. “But even if you’re not a wheelchair athlete, you’ll feel more joint stability from the improved strength of the supporting musculature, and pushing your chair will become a lot easier.”
