Crossfit Lakepoint

This is a member who was diagnosed with PD as a result of being exposed to Agent Orange, while serving in the Vietnam War. (Also received a Purple Heart). The doctor at Emory University would tell him that his symptoms were improving at each visit. As you can see, this member's symptoms are not noticeable. The form is impeccable, and he reguarly deadlifts over 300 pounds.

A 75 year old member with Parkinson's Disease for over 15 years doing a the row. After 2 weeks of coming to the gym his time for a 5 calorie row improved from 45 seconds to 30 seconds. I attribute the performance improvement to improved confidence, and the camaraderie / encouragement from the other members.

A 75 year old member with Parkinson's Disease for over 15 years doing a modified sumo deadlift. From this movement we can have him do the Kettlebell swing or high pull. I'm still working on form so we are not having him do the high pull.

A 75 year old member with Parkinson's Disease for over 15 years doing a modified pullup. This is a gymnastics training movement that looks easy, but is very effective.

A 75 year old member with Parkinson's Disease for over 15 years doing a modified burpee.
