Slide 2
Evaluating your LFA
• Look at the difference between task 1 & 14
• Most will be higher on 14
• Higher scores indicate that you should start with fewer
reps
When to adjust the training
• Be able to keep your
score under 100 ms
before increasing reps
 Example: If you have a
250 ms on both hands,
set their program for 50
to 100 reps and keep it
there until their scores
are below 100 ms.
 Tip: Demo hand over
hand to parent or
caregiver to help them
When to adjust the training
• Gradually increase the
reps as you are able to
maintain scores
consistently under 100 ms
• As the scores drop lower
add longer reps to EACH
TASK
• When able to do tasks
with longer reps (starting
with the 500 reps tasks)
make sure they can
maintain their scores in
the average to above
average range
When to adjust the training
• An off session or two
can be expected at
some point in the
training
• Don’t change plan just
yet
• Some clients have a
few poor scores right
before they make a big
gain in their timing
• If lack of progress
persists, it is time to
reassess
When to adjust the training
• If your client didn’t
do very well on the
LFA but soars on
session 1- move
them ahead &
