Chest and Triceps Strengthening with Dynamic Upper Extremity Weight Bearing

Prone over a Ball, Weight Bearing and Reaching:

This is a wonderful weight bearing activity. By positioning myself behind the child here, I can add to his stability.The more distal I have the ball under my client, the harder this activity is.If I stabilize the pelvis here, I can get upper extremity weight bearing with rotation if I have the child reach overhead to get the toy.Clearly the higher I have the child reach, the harder this activity is.
