Tendinitis at the ischiatic bone – Step 4

Rehabilitation starts with the exercises in Step 1. When the exercises can be performed without pain, rehabilitation starts on the next step.

How often and for how long should I train? Training frequency and duration are individual. Start with about 3 repetitions per workout. exercise and at least 3 times a week. Slowly increase the number of repetitions and load without exceeding the pain threshold

Do I have to do the whole program every time? No, you can divide the exercises into different days. The most important thing is to exercise regularly and gradually increase the intensity

The time in minutes indicates the time distribution between stretching, balance and strength if you train for one hour.
Whether you train for one hour or 10 minutes, for example, is adapted to your starting point – and can be increased over time.

Condition

Unlimited: Cycling, swimming and sprint running

Stretching

10 minutes of each training session

Stand with your training leg straight on a step/stool while bending your front body slightly forwards. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds.

Stand on one leg. Support yourself with one hand against a wall or chair. Bend the opposite knee and grasp your foot with the hand on the same side. Pull your foot upwards and your knee slightly backwards, so that you feel a gradual stretch in your thigh. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise, alternating between your right and left legs.

Stå ved at krydse træningsbenet strakt ind bagved støttebenet samtidig med, du bøjer dig ud til siden ud over træningsbenet, så der kommer tiltagende udspænding af ydersiden af låret. Hold udspændingen i 20 sekunder. Gentag øvelse skiftevis på højre og venstre ben

Stand with your legs apart. Keep one leg straight and the other slightly bent. Shift your weight to the side onto your bent leg, so that you feel a gradual stretch on the inside of the opposite thigh. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise on the other leg.

Lie on your back with one leg stretched out. Bend the other leg and place your foot on the opposite side of the stretched leg. Using both hands, pull your knee up towards the opposite shoulder so that you feel a gradual stretch in your glutes. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise on the other leg.

Coordination

5 minutes of each training session

Hold balancen på to ben på vippebrættet. Støt i starten med hånden mod væggen. Senere holdes balancen på ét ben uden støtte. Prøv senere at holde balancen med lukkede øjne.

Lig på ryggen med bold under træningsbenet. Løft hoften op fra gulvet og stræk det raske ben. Hold stillingen i 10 sekunder. Gentag øvelsen skiftevis med højre og venstre ben.

Strength

45 minutes of each training session

Fastgør en træningselastik i hoftehøjde foran dig. Sid på stol med ansigtet mod træningselastikken. Træningselastikken føres om anklen. Løft og stræk benet. Bøj herefter langsomt knæet, så træningselastikken strammes. Hold spændingen i få sekunder og stræk langsomt knæet igen.

Fastgør en træningselastik 10 cm over gulvhøjde. Stå med ansigtet mod træningselastikken. Før elastikken om træningsbenet mellem knæ og ankel (jo længere nede jo kraftigere er belastningen). Før langsomt benet tilbage, så elastikken strammes. Hold spændingen i få sekunder og før langsomt benet frem til udgangspositionen.

Stå ved stol med vægt på det raske ben. Støt evt. i starten med en hånd på stolryggen. Stå med sandsæk om træningsbenet. Bøj og stræk langsomt i knæet på træningsbenet.

Lie on your side with the working leg on top and an exercise band wrapped around your lower legs just above the ankles. Lie with your upper body slightly rotated forwards so that your navel is facing the floor. Tighten your glutes and lift the top leg backwards. Hold the leg raised for a few seconds, then lift it towards the ceiling. Hold the leg for a few seconds and slowly lower it back to the starting position.

“Nordic hamstring curls”. Kneel down. Keep your lower legs still*. Lean forward slowly in a smooth motion. Keep your back and hips straight (tighten your glutes) and engage the muscles at the back of your thighs. When you can’t lean any further forward without your head falling towards the floor, push back with your arms. Push off with your arms so that you can use your hamstrings to pull yourself back up to the starting position.

*) The feet can be secured either by placing them under a sofa, by having someone hold them by the ankles, or by fastening a belt around the ankles and threading the belt under an open door, with the ankles on either side of the door.

Kneel down. Keep your lower legs straight*. Attach an exercise band behind you at shoulder height. Loop the band over both shoulders so that you can hold it with both hands, placed in front of your shoulders. Lean forwards slowly in a smooth motion. Keep your back and hips straight (tighten your glutes) and engage the muscles at the back of your thighs. When you reach the floor, slowly stand back up again by using your hamstrings and the tension in the resistance band to pull yourself back into the starting position.

*) The feet can be secured either by placing them under a sofa, by having someone hold them by the ankles, or by fastening a belt around the ankles and threading the belt under an open door, with the ankles on either side of the door.

Sit on your knees, bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep your lower legs still*. Slowly bend forwards in a smooth motion until your forehead (almost) touches the floor. Use your back and hamstring muscles to pull yourself back up to the starting position.
