Leg Stretch
This exercise is also performed to strengthen the quadriceps.
- Sit on the floor with your both legs straight in front of you. Place your hands on either side of your hips to stabilize yourself while keeping your back straight.
- Slowly bend your one knee until it feels stretched, but avoid stretching too much, as it can cause pain.
- Hold your leg in this position for 5 seconds, then straighten your leg out slowly as far as you can, and hold it again for 5 seconds.
- Repeat 10 times and switch legs whenever one of the legs begins to tire.
