SEATED KNEE EXTENSIONS
Replace the exercise band handle with the exercise band
strap provided. Place the handle end between the door
and the doorframe about 2 inches from the floor and close
the door to secure the band. Place the exercise band strap
around the ankle of the injured leg. Sit in a chair with
your back to the door far enough away so the strap is
suspended under the chair, above the ground and slightly
taut. Place your hands at your sides or grip the chair.
Place your uninjured foot flat on the ground. Squeeze your
thigh and slowly straighten the leg with the band so that
your toes point toward the ceiling. Hold for 5 seconds.
Slowly lower your foot back to the floor. Relax. Do 3 sets,
10 repetitions.
