Straight Leg Raise - Knee Rehab

Показать описание
Similar to quad sets, this exercise is vital in learning how to contract your quadriceps - especially the rectus femoris muscle which extends your knee and flexes your hip! This is a crucial exercise early on following a knee surgery.

How high do you lift it?
I can really feel my hamstrings screaming once I get a certain height

I have a weak quad/hipe on the left side and Patellar tendon pain under the Patellar. My PT told me to do some Straight leg raises to strenghten my quad and plus do some leg raises with foot and knee turned outwards to strengthen my vmo. Is it really a good exercise for my quad or is it not good??

I'm doing this exercise for PT for a medial meniscus tear and repair. I know it also strengthens the hip flexor which I also need but my hip flexor takes over and fatigues really bad through the second set. Any suggestions?

The squeeze part makes the bottom of my left knee cap mildly painful, and the quad muscles differences between my right and left legs are getting bigger. What can I do?

would it help if i use rubber band to increase the intensity? I tried squat but my knee hurts, and i found out this exercise is quite good for the knee. Thanks.

My doc said to do 5sec pauses. Is there any difference

Will this strengthen the tendon at all? Because quad weakness is not the cause of my injury. It's just tendon over-use.

I’ve had a hip replacement 7 weeks ago (35yrs, OA with congenital issues) and am doing this to strengthen my flexors which were pretty non existent before, I’m definitely improving but how would I make it harder? also I need to increase my range of motion which is currently at 80-90 degrees, I’m allowed to do more but my muscles and brain is stopping me. Is there anything you could suggest?
