In this video, Alex is demonstrating Quad Sets.
- Tighten the muscles on the top of your thigh
- Push the back of the knee toward the exercise surface
- If you are having trouble with this exercise, you can use a small towel roll under the back of your need for feedback
- Push the back of the knee into the towel roll
- Hold this contraction for 5 seconds
- Remove the towel roll for this exercise when it's no longer needed
Perform 5-10 repetitions, 1-2x/day
The number of exercise repetitions and sets per day are just a suggestion and should be adjusted, as needed, to fit your fitness level and tolerance.
