Description

For this exercise, start by attaching a weight to the end of a band which you will hold at arm's length along your body. Then, position yourself by standing on the injured leg. Perform forward and backward movements with the weighted band while trying to maintain your balance. This movement will help strengthen the targeted muscles while challenging your stability.
