Fig 3 (A) The recommended, semicircular propulsion pattern. This pattern shows a long, smooth stroke. (B) An example of a poor propulsion pattern. Notice how short the stroke is. The patient is using significantly less of the pushrim than in figure 3A.

Fig 4 (A) The wheelchair propulsion path of a person who pushes the wheel with a long, smooth stroke. The path starts when the person reaches as far back on the wheel as he or she comfortably can, and pushes forward with a long, smooth stroke. The path also shows the person letting the hand relax between strokes and then reaching as far back as possible on the wheel to start the next stroke. Notice how the person is using a lot of the wheel surface. This is the most efficient way to push the chair. (B) The path of a person using short, choppy strokes. Notice how he or she is not using much of the wheel surface at all. This is a bad way to push a wheelchair.
