Fellow federationists,
Fitness is an important aspect of a healthy lifestyle, but it can sometimes be challenging to find accessible options. At our Spring convention, we hosted a seminar on resources and tips for getting exercise as a blind person. Here is a list of much of what was covered at that meeting. I hope you find it helpful and useful.
Happy exercising.
Ryan

Thank you to everyone who attended the health and fitness session at the NFBMN semi-annual convention a few weeks ago. There was a lot of interest in resources we discussed so I thought I'd put together a list of things we talked about during the session. I haven't personally tried all of these, but here is a list of some resources that might help you on your fitness journey.

Thanks,
Randi
