Q

in the prepareation of the questionaire, what type of information is collection

A

medical hisotry (ex: high BP)
meds
PA status (ex: level of fitness, balance, walk capacity, balance)
-goals of participant

109
Q

why are the goals of the participant necessary for the progam

A

MOTIVATION

more likely to see results and comeback if they are motivated and actvitely participating

110
Q

what did the exerceise prgram focussed on

A

strengthening the affected extremities and practicing functional tasks involving the upper and lower limbs.

111
Q

explaon some examples of execruse for upper limbs

A

push ups in standing
strtecth band in sitting position
ROM with wooden stick

112
Q

explain who push up in standing postition is good

A

to imporve elbow extensions and easier to icnrease or decrease diffucilty

113
Q

for upper limb exercises, they acnn do normal push ups?

A

falsse, standing push ups

114
Q

w=what position are stretch band exercises dont

A

in sitting position

115
Q

whey are stretch band exrecises done in sitting positions

A

to impove shoulder flexors, extensors and abductors

116
Q

why use ROM with wooden stick

A

unaffected limb can lead to other)

117
Q

what are some examples of lower limb exercises

A

step exericses
sit to stand
standing on 1 leg
standing in tandem

118
