Extender

Description

Lie on your back and hold your thigh just below the knee, keeping it at a 90° angle of flexion. Without moving your knee, perform slow knee extensions by bringing your foot upwards to a maximum point before pain is felt. Slowly return to the starting position. To work on knee flexion at the same time, you can continue lowering the foot towards your glutes before extending the leg upwards again.
