Re: [QUAD-L] Core exercises

2015-02-06 Thread Gmail
Greg, a really great excersise is to tilt your chair back a little (assuming 
you have tilt of course) and lean forward about 2"-3" and stay balanced as long 
as you can. It will strengthen your back and side muscles. 

Put both arms out to your side, a little lower than shoulder hight, and hold 
them there as long as possible. Repeat.
Also, hold your arms out in front of you as long as possible. Repeat.
~~~ if you try to do both of these excersise, repetitively, extremly slowly ... 
it will be more effective AND more difficult as well.

Actually ANY (not everyone of course) excersise you do in slow motion, is much 
more difficult and more effective.

DON’T get a quantum! I just changed from a Quantum 6000z to a Permobil M300 and 
love it! My Quantum kept breaking and always had weird issues but my new 
Permobil M300 is leaps and bounds better.

 It's time for me to order a new chair and I am thinking about a 
Quatum. If anyone has onedo you like it? Thinking about tilt. Are they made 
for driving adaptations on the bottom?

I had to get lateral supports on the side of my chair (power). My spine  
started to really curve.
I can't do many exercises, but I often put wrist weights on. I wear them when 
just doing my regular daily stuff.
I also swing my arms around sometimes.
