- We discussed some important aspects of your program right now, specifically knee motion
- Last time I saw you your knee extension of straightening was looking good and you needed to focus mostly on the knee flexion/bend
- I am going to include some movements from our initial meeting along with some new ones to try to work on improving your motion
- Program Updates
- Movements in BOLD CAN BE COMPLETE 3-4X PER DAY
- Movements not in bold should be completed 1x/day
- 13) Seated Slide Hamstring and Quad Stretch VIDEO
- This is from our first day: You won’t be moving as far as I do in the video but this slide is and easy thing to do and can be done often 8-15 reps
- 124) Double Leg Heel Raise VIDEO
- We did this at the counter but a progression would be to move to the wall like in the video: 8-15 reps
