Persons with Disabilities can gain from RT

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 54 million people -- one in five Americans -- have a disability. AAHD has stated: "While people with disabilities are more vulnerable to the development of secondary conditions such as obesity, pain, social isolation and depression, they are underserved by health promotion and physical activity programs."

RT can be a great help to people with disabilities by providing health promotion programs and physical activity programs.
