The 10 Week Challenge is a specific Parkinson’s neurological rehab program created by Dr Melissa McConaghy, that combines exercise and education to provide you with the tools to learn how to exercise for your particular type of PD and lessen your symptoms.

Prep Week has been designed to ensure you can set yourself up safely and to get the most out of the program. It is important to allow yourself plenty of time to complete the checklist prior to commencing the intensive 10 week program. Each week, new content will be released. Work your way through each day and be sure to reach out if you have any questions.

It is also a good idea to join the private group here where you can reach out to others on the same journey, introduce yourself or ask for peer support or feedback.

Tracker

Tracker

The tracker is designed to help you track the amount of time you spend in scheduled exercise each day. Scheduled exercise is activity you have prioritised in your day for health and to help slow your Parkinson’s down. This might include PD Warrior exercise, fast walking, golfing, going to the gym etc. It does not include incidental activity such as housework & gardening (although we hope this increases too). The aim of the tracker is to help you build an exercise habit and to keep you accountable, so try and enter something each day.
At the end of the 10 Week Challenge you can download and review your overall performance.
