Careful. All right. Let me come up Step up to this line. You ready? >> Mhm. >> All right. What I'm going to do is put your left foot on the line. Other left. And then you can put your right foot in front like this, standing heel to toe. Arms down at your sides. Yep. Just stay in that position. Don't move till I tell you to begin. Now, when I tell you to begin, you're going to take nine heel to toe steps down the line, okay? It's going to look like this. 1 2 3 and so forth. End of the ninth step, you're going to keep your front foot planted. You're going to step off with your back foot. You're going to turn around and make a series of small steps. It'll look like this. Then you take heel to toe steps back down the line. 1 2 3 and so forth. Several things I want you to keep in mind during this test. When you look down at your feet, keep your arms down at your sides, count your steps out loud. Once you've started this test, I don't want you to stop until you've finished. Do you have any questions? >> So you want me to do nine heel to toe steps >> Mhm. >> down the line. >> Yep. >> And then on the ninth I only need to do small steps. I don't count the steps. And then nine heel steps. >> Yep. Turn around as I demonstrated and keep your front foot planted. You're going to step off with your back foot. You're just going to turn around like this. You don't need to count your steps when you're turning around. You count your steps down your nine steps down and your nine steps back. Okay. Do you have any questions? >> No. >> Okay. You may begin. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 And then I'm going to have you do small heel-to-toe steps. >> Mhm. >> 1 2 3 >> So, four steps each. >> 4 5 6 7 8 9 All right. So, for this next test, you can disregard the line. We're not going to use it. So, what I'm going to have you do is you're going to stand with your feet together. Arms down at your sides. Stay in that position. Don't move till I tell you to begin. Now, when I tell you to begin, you're going to raise one foot, whichever foot you want, approximately 6 in off the ground, keeping your legs straight. You're going to count out loud by 1,000. >> Yep. It's going to look like this. >> 1,001, 1,002, 1,003, and so forth until I tell you to stop. So, there are a few things I want you to keep in mind during this test. Keep your arms down at your sides, look down at your feet, count out loud, don't hop or sway for balance. >> Got it. >> Now, if you put your foot down, which I don't want you to do, but if you do, I want you to pick that same foot up and continue counting where you left off. So, if you're at 1,003 and you put your foot down, you pick it back up, 1,004, 1,005, and so forth. >> Got it. >> Do you have any questions? >> You just want me to put my foot up, count out loud, >> look down at your feet, >> and then when you stop, >> and I'll tell you when to stop. >> Okay. >> You understand the instructions? >> I understand. >> All right. I'll let you know when you can begin. >> which leg do you want me to pick up? >> Whichever foot you want. Whichever one you're more comfortable >> Are you going to pick up? >> Huh? >> Right, left? >> Whichever one you want. >> I'll let you pick up for me. >> Okay. That's fine.
