Exercise Essentials Try this simple exercises to relieve pain and stay flexible!
Back Leg Raises Start by standing behind a seat. Lift your right leg straight backwards. When doing this, try your best not to bend the knees. Remain in this position for a couple of seconds before returning your leg back down. Do the same for the other leg. Repeat 20 times.
Sit to Stand Start by scooting close to the front of the chair. Next, lean forward at your trunk and reach forward with your arms and rise to standing without using your hands to push off from the chair or other object. Use your arms as a counter-balance by reaching forward when in sitting and lower them as you approach standing. Repeat 15 times.
Always consult your physical therapist or physician before starting exercises you are unsure of doing.
