Doylestown, PA – August 21, 2017 –<\/strong> BlindAlive<\/a>™ founder, Mel Scott, announced the release of new programs within Eyes-Free Fitness®, herpopular series of health and exercise programs for the blind and visually impaired. The programs are a ground-breaking concept that removes the barriers of typical exercise programs encountered bythose with vision impairments.<\/p>\n

“I am blind, which means that exercise videos rarely gave me enough descriptive information to do the workouts correctly,” said Scott. “That is why I created my company, BlindAlive™ and the Eyes-Free Fitness® workouts.”<\/p>\n

Popular exercise programs rely on individuals being able to see and emulate the moves. Eyes-Free Fitness® eliminates that problem, providing an audio-based workout that explains each move step-by-step and how to perform it. No specialized equipment is required and individuals can listen to a sample of the workouts online.<\/p>\n

Each program has been thoroughly tested by the blind and those with low vision to ensure they’re completely accessible. Eyes-Free Fitness® offers two Cardio<\/a> and a Boot Camp-style workout.<\/p>\n

Workout programs are available for individuals at all levels of fitness and a diverse range of goals. Cardio Level One is a fun, low-impact workout and Cardio Level Twois faster paced for toning and burning calories. The Boot Camp workout is designed for those who want maximum calorie burning.<\/p>\n

A weight lifting and body sculpting program with weights is available, along with a whole body workout. Eyes-Free Fitness® offers a Blind Yoga Workout and Slow Flow Yoga, along with three different Pilates<\/a> workout programs.<\/p>\n

Those who are blind and visually impaired encounter enough obstacles in their everyday life – the means to exercise and stay healthy and fit shouldn’t be one of them. Gifts for the blind can be difficult to choose and the programs by BlindAlive™ open up new horizons.<\/p>\n

The Eyes-Free Fitness® program offered by BlindAlive™ is just one of the things to help the blind that the company has created to assist those with no vision or limited sight. Eyes-Free Fitness® enables anyone with vision loss to pursue and achieve their fitness goals.<\/p>\n
