Guest jhgym2 Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I was hoping I could get everyone to critique the following alternative to knee pre-hab without the use of flex-bands. Physiologically speaking, does this seem like an effective/safe exercise?1. Sit in Pike Sit2. Bend Right Leg and place the inside of the foot against the left knee3. Rotate the knee so it is now flat on the ground pointing to the right, then rotate back to starting position.NOTE: Throughout the duration of the exercise, maintain right to left pressure on the left knee from the right footAny help is always appreciated, thanks.

JaredLLL Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 im sorry but does that really work the knee at all? and not the hip joint ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jhgym2 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 It is supposed to apply pressure through the knee as if the ankle had a flexband around it with the other end attached to a stationary object. I'm sure I've seen the aforementioned flexband exercise before for knee rehab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
