KNEE EXTENSIONS

Sit in a chair or at the end of a table so that your leg is
hanging above the floor. Cross the ankle of your
uninjured leg over the ankle of the injured leg. Straighten
your injured leg, slowly lift your leg up by tightening your
thigh muscle. Hold for 3 seconds then lower your leg
slowly. Relax. Do 3 sets, 10 repetitions.
Optional Water Weight Knee Extensions:
Fill both sides of the weight bag with equal amounts of
water. Start at 1 pound on each side and increase amount
as you increase strength. Put your forefoot through the
hole in the weight bag and drape the water bag around the
foot of your injured leg. Do exercise as instructed above.
