Active Knee Extension Exercise

Description

Kneel down and place your hands flat on a step or an elevated surface, arms straight. From this position, gently push down on your feet while contracting your thigh muscles to gradually extend your knees until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Then bend your knees again to return to the starting position.
