Description:
The IM ABLE Foundation enriches lives through raising awareness about physical fitness possibilities for individuals with disabilities and encouraging individuals of all abilities to be more active. By getting out in the community and showing people of all abilities the potential to lead an active lifestyle, people with and without disabilities can support the goal of the IM ABLE Foundation to demonstrate ability doesn't have to be a limiting factor. Founder Chris Kaag does speaking engagements to show that regardless of his wheelchair he maintains an active and fulfilling life. Hand cycling, working out at his gym, Corps Fitness, and kayaking are all examples of how he is doing what he promotes - getting up and moving. The goal of IM ABLE is to help individuals find the physical fitness modality that meets their needs. In particular, IM ABLE focuses on hand cycles, racing chairs, and adaptive skis. With today’s technology, such as with the hand cycles, it is possible for anyone who has a disability to increase their fitness level. Staying active benefits not only the body but also the mind, and the IM ABLE Foundation endeavors to help individuals with disabilities achieve the goal of physical and mental well being.
