Both can help improve leg strength, but the functional outcome of each is different! Let's dive in so that you can know which is best for you and your goal of improving leg strength in MS!

    I was thinking of going to gem and to the machines but I can practice these while watching football 👍👍 I wonder there’s any exercise for glute muscles apart from bridging 🤷🏻‍♂️

    So glad you explained this. I surely was trying to figure out why my stellar gym performance was not crossing over to what I naturally need to move around. Thank you

    Thoughts about having dumbbells in your hands as you rise from a chair?

    • @DoctorGretchenHawley
      @DoctorGretchenHawley  หลายเดือนก่อน

      As long as the person has good form, and does not exercise to the point of fatigue due to holding the additional weight, that's great!

    Is there any exercises to be able to walk further? I cant seem to increase distance and endurance too i guess. Do i just need to keep reading your book? That and standing. Standing is the hardest

    • @DoctorGretchenHawley
      @DoctorGretchenHawley  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      There is definitely information in the book☺️ But, also you might find this episode of my podcast helpful! open.spotify.com/episode/6Ql9DdpGlJ1VuyuHhPeM6P?si=308c86c6d00543dc
