Quadriceps strength

I have been playing around with the @roguefitness GHD on helping/ prepping my knee before I lift, by using it to work on knee extension. • The 1st video I am working with @nataliejuncos doing a single leg crunch. In doing this we isolate the quad muscle in a isometric contraction. The lower her body the more intense it gets. This is also a great way to load the patella tendon before lifting or other training activities. • The last video I have to give a big shoutout to @matoko.n & @mmgstrength . This is a mixture between a sissy squat and a TKE. Very challenging the closer the feet holders are the more intense it gets. Great for quad activation and working on terminal knee extension. 🦵🏽

Well it’s not American Ninja Warrior status but after 8 knee surgeries I am ECSTATIC with myself 🎉👊🏼Every day I work hard to get and keep my knees functioning. Every day I make myself vulnerable in order to advance my rehab and work on the investment of my knee health. Every day I face my fears of pain, re-injury or being told I need more surgeries. Every day I am stronger. Every day I am better. Every day I keep going no matter what. Every day I risk so that I can truly live and pursue joy! Every day I am thankful for what my knees can do and how my mind has taken them there! 💕💕🧠💪🏼🙏🏼😊 . . #jennactive #surviving7 #acl #loveyourknees #aclrehab #aclsurgery #aclrecovery #aclrevision #arthritis #aclreconstruction #knee #legday #motivationmonday #nevergiveup #comebackstronger #myjourney #mindset #athlete #leggings #legs #battleropes #fitness

“Knee Rehab Home Exercise Program” [ACL Rehab Exercise Advice] . Here is a compilation of exercise videos I recently prescribed in a home exercise program for a ACL patient. Shown are 5 exercises, however I actually sent 12 videos for a very comprehensive program! . The patient is currently 9 weeks post-op and the current goals in rehab are improving deceleration and shock absorption, improving force generation, and improving lower extremity muscle strength and hypertrophy, specifically the quads and the glutes. These are major prerequisites prior to more advanced strengthening, jumping, plyometric, running, and other high intensity activities. . 1️⃣ Hip Prep – a great exercise to prime the system for a training session 2️⃣ Triple Extension To Drop Squats – an excellent exercise to work on deceleration 3️⃣ Counter Movement Jump In Place – once a patient can demonstrate sufficient deceleration, it is time to combine it with force generation. Counter movements are great to work on creating elastic potential energy. 4️⃣ Single Leg Squat – a great exercise to challenge single leg stability and muscle strength/hypertrophy 5️⃣ 4-Direction Lunge – a great exercise to challenge balance, stability, and muscle endurance . I WISH I had a resource like this when I was a student and new grad. I was so frustrated not being able to send patients home exercise programs efficiently, let alone with higher level exercises. If you’re looking for the ultimate movement library with both lower lever rehab to higher level strength and conditioning exercises? Look no further than our PrehabX Exercise Library!
