P1: 0 degrees of dorsiflexion on the non-dominant side and 20 degrees of dorsiflexion on the dominant side

P2: 20 degrees of plantarflexion on the non-dominant side and 20 degrees of dorsiflexion on the dominant side

I-M: instructed movement, with instructions to increase weight bearing on the non-dominant side

Lift-off time: the time that the buttocks lifted from the chair

Center of gravity (COG) displacement: positive values indicate displacement toward the non-dominant side

*1 non-dominant side
