Want to test strength and functional mobility just by using a chair and a stopwatch? The Chair Sit-To-Stand Test¹ is a great measure of lower-extremity strength² and functional independence. ¹ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… ²pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10380242/ (1/4)

🪑 Place a chair without arms against a wall 💬 Ask the participant to sit in the chair with their back straight, one foot slightly in front of the other, and arms crossed at the wrist against their chest 🤝 Stay near the participant for safety (2/4)

Common forms of the Sit-To-Stand Test include: 5️⃣ 5 Sit-To-Stand: Time it takes to stand then sit again 5 times ⏱️30 Seconds Sit-To-Stand: Number of sit to stands completed in 30 seconds Make sure to demonstrate the Test and allow the participant to have a practice go! (3/4)
