Should we inhale exhale as well whole doing it?

[@SuccessforLifester]

I didn't have any surgery and I couldn't stand properly on one leg. Especially the left one

Glad it was helpful!

Get a little stool that is sturdy. Step on it with 1 leg and extend the other leg behind you as straight as possible. Bend the knee slowly and try to reach the ground. Can use a wall or counter for balance progression. Eventually the knee gets more range of motion and can touch the ground with your hand

[@karansharma-tb3bc]

Thank you for the information sir please may you tell me that is this helpfull for overpronation???

[@Cbphysicaltherapy]

Hi Karan,
It can help to some degree since it is working on stability and strength of the muscles that stabilize the foot. However there are many factors that contribute to overpronation. If you over pronate, I recommend finding a good Physical Therapist in your area who treats the foot & ankle.

Which leg should do? small or big?

[@kekabanerjee4827]

My queries are how to tie 1 bottle on the foot

[@azlan856]

Should there be a slight bend? Was told to keep leg straight.

[@tamarunitamaruni4724]

I've heard keep a slight bend. it may not be noticeable. but someone has said it helps protect stress on the knee
