Stand with the chair behind you and your arms stretched out in front of you.
Slowly sit down in the chair, keeping your arms in front of your body.
Try to sit in a controlled manner by placing yourself gently on the chair.
Lean slightly forward and stand up from the chair.
Try not to favour one side or use your hands to help you.
Keep repeating this sequence for as long as directed.
Remember as you stand up, to lean forward whilst bending at the waist so that your head is positioned over your toes.
This will make it easier for you to stand up from the chair.
You should do this activity as fast as you can without feeling like you will lose your balance, and all the while using a controlled movement.
