push/pull, lift/carry
Tue, 12/12/2006 - 12:38pm
I noticed that the default selections on the WS software with regard to carrying are 44" and 31" for handle height and the distances are 7, 14, and 28 feet. How do these presets correlate with what is in the FCE manual? There are also some differences in the manual and the software with pushing and pulling. The software has choices for handle height and also for distance. In the manual I can only find a distance of 30 feet listed in the manual as the acceptable distance for push/pull activities. How do these numbers correlate with those that are presets in the software? Thanks for any input.
The presets in the software are linked to norms tables. The tables are based on protocols that used those heights, push/pull distances, etc.
The new software coming out next year will probably have a little more flexibility in this area; it is something I am working on.
