If you recently experienced an SCI, you may not have active living, sports and exercise on your mind. You may feel your life has been turned upside down and it’s hard enough doing some of the basics, such as sitting up and getting out of bed. But the reality is that exercise may be even more beneficial to you now than before your injury.
