• For upper-body exercises, use soup cans or an object with light resistance.
• Perform one to three sets, eight to 12 repetitions, with 1 to 2 minutes of rest between sets.
• Sample exercises (individual assessment is crucial): front shoulder raise (raising an object forward/up with straight arms), wall push-ups (stand 2 feet from a wall and push away), toe raises (while standing straight, lift and lower your body on your toes and hold onto something for balance), arm curls (bicep curls), 1/4 squat (lower your body slightly, bending at your knees with your back straight and chest forward), and side shoulder raise (raise an object directly to your side with your arm straight).

Note: This program is designed to improve range of motion and abilities of daily living. Progression to heavier resistances, especially for the lower body region, is vital for optimal progression.
