My Wheelchair and I are joining a gym

I need to get in some sort of shape... (nice if it could be Angelina Jolie or even Jamie lee Curtis, but beggars can't be choosers). Getting my head back into reality world… I think the only way to get anywhere with my weight is to join a gym, one that can accommodate a wheelchair user… In never occurred to me… or rather I had never given much thought to the logistics of being able to do gym exercise from my wheelchair…. But if you think about it all I have to do is sit and what I really need to do is build my upper and core body strength… so I could do that from my wheelchair.
