Stretch one arm out in front of you (holding the aid) and move it backwards at chest height with the widest possible range of motion (gaze remains forward, legs stable). After some time, bring the arm at chest height in front of the body to the opposite side (arm pointing to the side, elbow in front of the body). Then pass the aid to the other arm to change sides.
