Exercise equipment

Hey there, I’m wanting to work on my fitness which certainly isn’t the easiest thing to do when you spend all day sitting in an electric wheelchair. I find the motomed I use with my physio to be ideal to get my blood pumping and I would love to get one to use at home however they are not the cheapest bits of equipment to buy. Does anyone have any suggestions of places I can get one that is used (I’ve checked on eBay however they only have one up for auction) or if not somewhere to buy a motomed then suggestions of alternate passive exercise bikes?

@gav , would renting/leasing be an option?

Hi @Gav maybe for home you can do some of the MS Society exercise videos? https://www.mssociety.org.uk/ms-active-together Another way to fund an exercise machine would be to apply for a grant - the MS Society has a wellbeing grant: https://www.mssociety.org.uk/apply-health-and-wellbeing-grant These can be used to cover all or some of the cost of equipment. Email the team for any help or questions.
