Early phase - in bed - prevent quads muscle inhibition

Submitted by admin on March 26, 2008 - 9:08pm.

When the quadriceps muscle is inactive for a time it can rapidly waste, and it is extremely hard to rebuild it. In this early phase in bed, a few simple exercises will help to maintain tone in the quads muscle. They can all be done in the bed - heel slides, facilitated heel slides and short arc extensions.
