[A] job is in this category when it requires a good deal of walking or standing, or when it involves sitting most of the time with some pushing or pulling of arm or leg controls. To be considered capable of performing a full or wide range of light work, you must have the ability to do substantially all of these activities. If someone can do light work, we determine that he or she could also do sedentary work, unless there are additional limiting factors, such as loss of fine dexterity or inability to sit for long periods of time.”
