Stand on one leg. Support with one hand on a wall/chair. Bend the opposite knee and grasp the foot with the hand on the same side. Pull your foot up and your knee slightly backwards, so that your front thigh becomes increasingly stretched. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise alternately on the right and left leg. The exercise can also be performed lying on your side or stomach.
Lie on your back with one leg straight. Bend the other leg and place your foot on the other side of the stretched leg. With both hands, pull your knee up towards the opposite shoulder so that your buttocks are increasingly stretched. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise on the opposite leg.

Attach an exercise band at hip height in front of you. Sit on a chair with your face towards the exercise band. Wrap the exercise band around your ankle. Lift and stretch your leg. Then slowly bend your knee to tighten the resistance band. Hold the tension for a few seconds and slowly stretch the knee again
‘Lunges. Stand upright with both legs together. Step forwards on the training leg, bending the knee to max 90 degrees. Keep your front knee behind your toes. Keep your front foot on the floor. Bend your back leg and come all the way forward on the toes of your back leg. Stand up on the same leg and return to the starting position
Attach an exercise band 10 cm above floor level. Stand with your back against the resistance band. Wrap the elastic band around the training leg between the knee and ankle (the lower down, the greater the load). Slowly move your leg forwards to tighten the elastic band. Hold the tension for a few seconds and slowly bring your leg back to the starting position.
‘Split squat. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and hands on your hips. Step back with one leg supporting only your toes. Put your weight on your front leg and keep your back straight. Bend your front knee 90 degrees so your back knee almost reaches the floor. Tighten your glutes and extend your front leg to reach the starting position.
Attach an exercise band at hip height. Wrap the exercise band around your hip so that the exercise band is taut. Stand on your healthy leg with your side facing the resistance band. Sit down on the healthy leg and land on the training leg further away so that the exercise band is further tensioned. Remember that the elastic band should be positioned so that it provides resistance in the push-off. Repeat the exercise on the opposite leg.
