Seated Leg Exercises on Your Couch

Is it another Blah day? When you still don’t want to get up from your couch? But you know you need to be a fighter, you need to do your home exercises so you can achieve your goals. If so, let’s do exercises that you can do on your couch.
For occupational therapy, we need to also strenghten the legs.
So even though we don’t wanna get up from our couch we need to do our exercises, or therapy to achieve our goals. Whether that may be being independent with your self care or the ability to play with your kids or grandkids, lets make those your motivation to be consistent with your therapy at home.
In this video, we are going to do leg exercises on your couch. We will use a throw pillow in some of the exercises and we will be sitting exceot for the last one when we get up and down.
Exercises included are:
1. Stationary marching
2. Leg clams
3. Knee adduction
4. Leg circles
5. Front kicks
6. Knee flexions
7. Toes ups
8. Calf raises
9. Sit to stand
