TURN-IT exercise program

Based on the exercise motor learning principles, participants spend 10-15 minutes at each Exercise Station that focuses on particular constraints of turning ability. The stations will focus on important underlying aspects of turning, such as weight-shifting and increasing axial rotation during functional turning tasks. Each station will be progressed across levels to make more challenging (such as adding a dual task). Initially participants will be supported in an overhead body-weight support system (ZeroG) to allow them to practice challenging exercises without the risk of falling.
