Exercises for the legs

1 Exercise Lean against a wall and bend your knees slightly. Your feet should be far enough away from the wall so that your knees do not protrude over your feet when you bend your knees up to 100°. You can either hold the sitting position on the wall or stretch and bend your knee joints 15 times.

2 Exercise You lie on your back and lift both legs. You perform large circular movements with them as if you were riding a bicycle. The pace should not be too fast.

3 Exercise You lie on your back and stretch both legs. Then you lift them. Without taking your legs off, pull them apart and bring them back together.

4 Exercise You are lying on your side and have stretched your legs. The underlying arm is under the head as support. The other arm supports the upper body from the front and is angled.

The upper leg is spread upwards and remains stretched out. While this leg is coming up, press your bottom forward so that it does not move backwards. When the leg comes down again, do not put it down completely.

Repeat the exercise 15 times and then change the leg/side position. 5 Exercise Assume the position from exercise 4. However, you do not only lift the leg above but both legs.

The legs never touch the ground when they are lowered afterwards. After about 15 repetitions, change sides. 6 Exercise You are lying on your side and have stretched your legs.
