•
complete action of the muscle. If you cannot reach full range of motion,
move only as far as comfortable.
Reps are 8-10; intensity should be individualized.

•
relaxation and increase postural awareness.
Any participants who have had a hip or knee replacement or surgery
•
should not perform any cross lateral movements (Adduction of the hip
where the affected leg is brought across the midline of the body such
as crossing one’s legs should be avoided. Abnormal rotation of the hip
(especially internal rotation) can lead to dislocation).
Consult your physician prior to starting AnY type of exercise program

and encourage the participants to think about body positioning for each
exercise. The size and speed of the movement determines the intensity.
