Event Series Event Series: Feeling Fit with FSHD

Aug 8 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

18:00 PM CET | 17:00 PM UK | 12:00 PM Noon ET | 11:00 AM CT | 10:00 AM MT | 9:00 AM PT

Physical therapy and fitness training can both be beneficial to individuals with FSHD. Do you know the difference? When is PT called for? When does fitness training make sense? Join us to share your personal experiences with PTs and trainers. The wisdom of our crowd is invaluable!

For people living with FSHD who are interested in exercise and fitness, Feeling Fit with FSHD meets on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of every month at 12:00 pm (noon) U.S. Eastern Time. Come dressed for exercise and have on hand any safety and assistive devices you need. Not every exercise is appropriate or safe for every individual, so please use your best judgement and consult your health care provider.

Please come prepared with a stable chair or stool (back of chair is optional). You can also choose to bring light weights ranging from 1lb to 5lb.
