This is a fascinating area, and quite possibly one you haven't spent much time thinking about - strength training for the blind, those in wheelchairs and anyone else with reasonably uncommon requirements.
On this week's show we'll be talking to Personal Trainer & Massage Therapist Bill Kociaba - who himself is completely blind. Bill teaches exercise classes via the Blind Cafe online community, runs his own gym and promotes a number of bodybuilding shows.
Joining him is Personal Trainer and Strength Athlete Josh Hewett . Fantastic.
NB : We'd love to hear your questions and comments. If there's a particular subject you'd like Bill and Josh to address, just swing by the event page for this Gymchat and leave a comment or jump in the Hangout and ask them directly.
And if you'd like to point your friends/colleagues to the discussion, just use the 'share' button at the top of that page. The more the merrier.
