Split Stance Towel Scoop Toss - Feed In
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Position yourself fairly close to a wall holding a towel with both hands that will reach the wall. Get into the split stance position with your outside leg forward and your knee slightly bent. The inside leg is back with your toes pushing into the ground. Squat down slightly by bending both knees. From here, rotate away from the wall to create some momentum to then rotate back towards the wall whipping the towel onto the wall.
- FEEL: You should feel your leg muscles working while in the split stance position. You should also feel your core and arm muscles working as you whip the towel
- COMPENSATION: Maintain the split stance position as you whip the towel, don’t lose your balance
