Lying wall slides use the weight of the leg to passively improve flexion and active quads contraction straightens the leg again.
 |
Lie on your back on a firm surface with your legs extended up the wall. You may need some help positioning yourself. |
 |
Using the weight of your leg, but in a controlled fashion, slowly lower the one leg, sliding the foot down the wall. |
 |
When you have achieved maximum flexion, hold it for 10 seconds, and slide the leg up again. Repeat 5 times. |
 |
You can alternate with the other leg. Repeat each 5 times. |
