A soldier who lost both of his legs while on duty in Afghanistan has officially opened a new super-gym and rehabilitation centre for other troops who have been injured in combat.<\/p>\n
Sergeant Gavin Harvey, of 6 Close Support Battalion Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers, cut the ribbon at the purpose-built Physical and Recreation Training Centre in Tidworth Garrison.<\/p>\n
Soldiers who use the gym will find super hi-tech equipment to use for physical fitness as well as recovering from injury.<\/p>\n
Sergeant Harvey said that places like this can help others to be like him and recover from their injuries.<\/p>\n
"Having a facility like this is great establishment to better yourself and your fitness levels. The centre is going to give soldiers a better fighting chance of full recovery if they raise their fitness," he stated.<\/p>\n
Something else troops can use to keep their fitness up is a pair of Skechers Shape Ups, which help tone the leg muscles and strengthen them, according to Fitness Footwear.<\/p>\n
