  2. A can of soft drink is placed in every second circle, starting from the side of the hand being tested
  3. The participant begins the test by grabbing the first can with their hand in the ‘thumbs up’ position
  4. When the stopwatch is started, the participant races to turn each can upside down as quickly as possible placing it within the adjacent circle
