Solid ISOMETRIC KNEE & LEG EXERCISES!

-

 


Isometric exercises involve holding a position or contraction of a muscle without movement. Here are some isometric leg and knee exercises that you can try:

  1. Wall Sit: Stand with your back against a wall and slide down until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  2. Plie Squat Hold: Stand with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and toes pointed out. Bend your knees and lower into a squat position, holding the position for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  3. Single Leg Balance: Stand on one leg and hold the position for 30 seconds to 1 minute. You can hold onto a wall or chair for support if needed.

  4. Glute Bridge Hold: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground. Lift your hips up until your body forms a straight line from your shoulders to your knees. Hold the position for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  5. Lunge Hold: Step forward with one foot and lower your back knee towards the ground, stopping before it touches. Hold the position for 30 seconds to 1 minute before repeating on the other side.

Remember to focus on engaging your muscles throughout each exercise and maintaining proper form to get the most benefit.
