DM #382: THIS!!!! So this!
—
Had the opportunity to teach, rap with, eat ? with, and hang out with the ever awesome @jennypoppop last week in Nashville and apparently I also managed to strong-arm her into dropping a totally ? post. Def head over to her page and check out her most recent post about adult vs pediatric gyms.
—
Jen was gracious enough to show me around her facility when I was there, and the first thing that jumped out at me was the insane difference between the standard ‘ortho’ clinic and the pediatric gym. And I mean INSANE difference.
—
Colors, swings, ropes, slides, climbing walls, obstacle courses…basically ALL the fun things in the pediatric gym. Ortho clinic? Tons of old school exercise machines, lots of therabands, minimal color, and minimal fun. W.T.F?
—
We’re doing it wrong, folks. So wrong. My advice? Talk to a pediatric therapist. Take a pediatric course. Just do something other than reps and sets on a boring ? machine in a boring ? room. Your patients, and your sanity, will thank you.
