What did studies of Arm reaching training in standing find?
2Studies of Arm reaching training in standing measured 2 outcomes; the most studied are weight-bearing asymmetry (1 study) and postural sway (1).

Arm reaching training in standing increases weight-bearing asymmetry in humans.
“Larger ranges of weight-bearing asymmetry were more frequent after the training session, mainly for the right stroke group.”
