1 FLOOR EXERCISES for strengthening your hip and knee INTERMEDIATE LEVEL
2 THIGH STRENGTHENING 3 HIP STRENGTHENING ON YOUR SIDE 5 HIP STRENGTHENING ON YOUR BACK 8 ALL 4 S WITH LEG LIFT 10 When you have pain or an injury to your knee or lower extremity, it s necessary to strengthen muscles in your whole lower body to have the best recovery possible, even if your injury is just in one area. The hip and trunk muscles support your knee, ankle and foot, and they all work together when you move. The exercises in this booklet will help you strengthen these muscles to help you recover. Please read the instructions carefully and follow the advice of your physical therapist or doctor when starting or progressing an exercise program such as this. If your symptoms get worse while doing these exercises, please read the instructions again to be sure you are doing the exercises exactly as described. If your symptoms continue to worsen, talk to your health care provider. Equipment needed: exercise ball pillow foam towel(s) exercise band (color) or resistance band 2
