[Sportsandrec] Accessibility to Fitness Equipment

[Tina Hansen]

I'm not sure if this is the right list to address this issue, but I feel 
it's got to be addressed somewhere.

There's been some discussions within the NFB about the lack of accessibility 
to fitness equipment at workout centers. Many of them are programmable, and 
they don't give nonvisual feedback.

While it's possible to just get on a bike and ride, it's not possible to 
program things like your heart rate, weight, etcerera to use the courses.

Since I live in an apartment, the best place for me to work out is at my 
local fitness center.

Does anyone have suggestions on what we can do to address the accessibility 
problems with fitness equipment? Thanks.
