The website is endorsed by Australian Physiotherapy Association and contains a combination for downloadable example exercise programs and videos to suit everyone from those with medical issues that limit activity to regular exercisers who a looking for a more structured program.

As with any exercise program, it’s a good idea to have a discussion with your doctor or allied health provider if you have health concerns to consider. There are also some great safety tips here to help before you start exploring the programs available
