Description:
  1. Position wheelchair/chair at a distance a little farther away than client's full elbow extension while holding cable handles/v bar.
  2. Secure the wheelchair by locking brakes.  Have the client sit upright at the front of the wheel chair.  Remove arm rests +/- foot pedals if preferred.  Do not remove arm rests or foot pedals without a spotter if poor trunk or lower limb control.
  3. While engaging the core and maintaining upright spine and head posture/alignment have the client pull the load towards their abdomen.  Shoulder should be back.  Chest up.
  4. Return under control.  This should be done in a slow and controlled fashion.  Their inner core should remain engaged throughout the exercise while still remembering to breath.
