Regain Strength and Flexibility with These Easy Moves

Recovery doesn’t have to be complicated.

Here are five simple exercises to help restore your strength, flexibility, and confidence—all from the comfort of home.

1. Seated Knee Glides (Best for knee recovery)

Sit in a sturdy chair with your foot on the glider.

Gently slide your foot back and forth in a smooth motion.

Repeat for 10-15 reps per leg, increasing time as you progress.

Benefits: Helps regain range of motion and prevent stiffness in the knee joint.

2. Hip Mobility Slides (Ideal for hip surgery recovery)

Sit upright and place one foot on the glider.

Slowly slide your foot outward, then back inward.

Perform 10 reps on each side to improve hip flexibility.

Benefits: Encourages hip joint mobility and improves circulation.

3. Heel Slide Extensions (Strengthens leg muscles)

Lay down on a mat or soft surface.

Place your foot on the glider and extend your leg fully.

Slowly bring it back toward you.

Do 10 reps per leg to enhance muscle activation.

Benefits: A great post-surgery movement to prevent muscle loss and maintain flexibility.

4. Resistance Band Glides (Boosts strength)

Attach a light resistance band around your foot while using the glider.

Push against the resistance as you glide forward and backward.

Perform 8-12 reps per side to improve strength.

Benefits: Builds stability and muscle strength in a controlled manner.

5. Ankle Mobility Rolls (Improves joint fluidity)

With your foot on the glider, roll your ankle in a circular motion.
