Here is a patient who underwent surgery for a right medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction. Every week, she has made significant improvements with her weight-bearing tolerance, as well as improvements with knee range of motion (ROM) and quadriceps strength.

This video captures her first time performing dynamic stabilization exercises. It is easier, and safer, to teach this movement pattern (hip and knee extension) in a gravity-reduced position, as opposed to squatting, especially single-leg squatting. The red wobble board challenges her to maintain proper alignment of the leg while performing single-leg press.

She is using the Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) bands while performing these exercises. Training with BFR bands creates an anabolic environment from a strenuous workout while only using a light resistance load. Tissue repair is facilitated resulting in improved strength and muscle mass without damaging the repair.

Effective and efficient rehab is criterion-based, not time-based.

Always consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.  STOP exercising if you experience any symptoms of weakness, unsteadiness, light-headedness/dizziness, chest pain or pressure, nausea, or shortness of breath.  

Performing these exercises should not cause pain.  If you experience pain while exercising, decrease the speed of your movement.  If the pain persists - STOP.  Mild soreness after exercising may be experienced after beginning a new exercise.
