Physio equipment question

Following a random accident I am permanently disabled.
This has obviously been devastating, I used to have a career, I could drive etc, etc.

Finally I have seen a physio, I had to learn to walk again and, because the accident was towards the end of Covid, I had very little support.
Writing I had to learn to walk again, for the greater part I taught myself.

During my first physio appointment, she told me that I need to buy a weight to push along the floor.
Apologies that I am vague about this, I spent 2 hours with her and by the end I was exhausted and confused.

Does anyone know what I need to search for when looking for this rolling weight?

Thank you 😊

What body part will you be targeting?
Have you to be standing or on the floor when exercising?

Yes, exercising on the floor, this piece will be rolled across the floor using my arms or legs.
