As a Personal Trainer part of my day to day is to help support both my clients and myself focus on building muscle fibre and improving their strength to help them becoming more functional in their daily life. 

Muscular Dystrophy is a group of over 60 rare and progressive muscle weakening and wasting conditions that effect the way people live their day to day lives. Muscle-wasting conditions are very rare, affecting just over one in every 1,000 people. As a result, some health professionals may never come across anyone with a muscle-wasting condition and may not know much about them.

Imagine:

Not being able to go to the gym and lift weights

Not being able to complete your weekly spin class OR circuit class

Not having the strength to go out at the weekend and play Football or Rugby.  

Muscular Dystrophy UK is the charity for the 70,000 people living with muscle-wasting conditions in the UK. They bring together people affected by more than 60 rare and very rare progressive muscle-weakening and wasting conditions. Providing vital information, advice, resources and support for people with these conditions, their families and the professionals who work with them.
