“Beat It” with Diabetes Australia and Cronulla Fitness |
|
|
|
Sydney, 15 October 2008: Three Cronulla Fitness Personal Trainers
have been among the first to participate in a new specialised national
diabetes program run by Diabetes Australia that will provide safer and
more effective training for people who have the illness.
Until now, Personal Trainers undertaking their Accreditation
Certificate have received limited education about training people with
a chronic illness, such as diabetes.
Diabetes Australia-NSW developed a new program called ‘Beat It’
because some exercises and resistance training for people with and at
risk of diabetes complications like cardiovascular disease and nerve
damage can harm themselves without proper training.

Fitness help for sufferers of diabetes |

Three Cronulla personal trainers are leading the way with a specialised program
designed to make training safer for people with diabetes.
Cronulla Fitness owner Carol Cropper said until now personal trainers
undertaking their accreditation certificate have received only limited education
about training people with a chronic illness.
She said the catalyst for the new program was finding out her father had
developed type 2 diabetes five years ago.
Ms Cropper called Diabetes Australia-NSW to ask what specialised training
people with diabetes needed.
