Throwback last night at Four Seasons staircase supporting my friend @pushtoinspire upcoming project adapt.
@pushtoinspire is one of the Paralympic athlete in Malaysia and doing his best - push to inspire on how everyone of us can play a part in being more inclusive as a society.
In conjunction with International Day of PWDs - People With Disabilities, it is a campaign of highlighting them, and the need for INCLUSION in the world we live.
Last night Daniel showed me how he climbed up the stairs by using both arms. There are few ways:
1. Place both arms one step behind, and push it (chair dip), and then sit on the respective step. We did this up to 24 floors.
2. If there are two sides of railing, you can use both arms to hold on the railing and pull yourself up.
3. You can also place one fist at the back, and another at the same level to further push yourself up to the next step. Can do it alternatively.
*We continue until 39 floors and it took us about half an hour for this journey.
Thanks @pushtoinspire for the sharing and I learn a new skills on how to climb up the stairs by using just both my arms.
I have been using both my legs all these while running up the stairs and I never try by using both the arms to climb the stairs!
I believe that people will all ability can do sport and we should encourage them to do it, discover and find a way to guide and help them instead of putting them aside. Together we can achieve even more!
*I first met Daniel 8 years back in Bukit Jalil Half Marathon. He was racing the 10km on his wheelchair while I was running. I was so inspired by him as he showed a real example to all of us.
*If he can do it in his way, how about you? We need to be grateful on what we have and do our best on things we venture in, then only you live a better life!
