Simultaneous Knee Flexions in Prone Position

Description

Stand facing the pool edge and hold on with both hands. Place a pool noodle under your arms to support your body in the prone position. Keeping your thighs in line with your trunk, bend both knees at the same time to bring your heels toward your buttocks. Then straighten your legs to return to the starting position. Keep your abdominal muscles engaged and control the movement. Perform the number of repetitions recommended by your therapist.
