Access Denied: The Shortage of Digitized Fitness Resources for People With Disabilities

The study examines the gap in accessibility to digital fitness resources, and re-frames the notion of accessibility to suit the contemporary context. The authors suggest the construction of a comprehensive, indexed digital library of home-based physical activity video content, tailored to various disabilities and skill levels, and committed to contemporary notions of accessibility. Current resources are hard to find and not always free.
