Unlimited: Cycling. Swimming. Running on a soft surface.
(10 min)
Lie on your back. Draw the injured leg up towards your head so that the muscles in the back of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Perform the exercise with outstretched as well as bent knee. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be performed standing with the injured leg outstretched on a chair while the upper body is bent slightly forwards.
Stand with support from the back of a chair or the wall. Using your hand, bend the knee and draw the foot up and your knee slightly backwards so that the muscles in the front of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be done lying down. If you lie on your stomach you can draw the foot up by using a towel.
Squat with the injured leg outstretched behind you as far as possible with the foot on a box. Thrust your hip forward and down without swaying your back so that the front of the hip becomes increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.
Stand with one leg outstretched and the other slightly bent. Thrust your weight to the side over the bent leg so that the inner side of the opposite thigh becomes increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.
Stand with your hands on your hips and slowly sway your back, pushing slightly with the hands to increase the sway, so that the stomach muscles become increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating.
(5 min)
Seesaw. Balance on two legs, possibly using a hand as support against the wall, balancing subsequently on one leg without support. Look straight ahead and keep knees bent.
Stand on the injured leg with your upper body bent forwards at 90 degrees. Lift the good leg in a straight line behind you. When you feel comfortable with the exercise, it can be made more difficult by closing your eyes.
(45 min)
Lie on your back and place your hands behind your neck. Move your head and knees towards each other. Remember not to pull on your neck during the exercise.
Go down on all fours with elastic around one foot. Attach the elastic to the wall, lift the leg and draw the knee forwards so that the elastic is tightened.
Lie on your side on a mattress or bench. Flex the lower part of the leg and stretch the upper part. It is important to completely stretch the hip. Lift the upper leg upwards with the heel pointing towards the ceiling. Gradually increase the load by attaching a sandbag to the ankle.

Stand with the elastic around the injured leg, facing away from the elastic. Move the leg forwards and slowly backwards. The elastic can be moved up and down the leg depending upon the strength of the knee – the stronger the knee, the lower the elastic should be.

Lie on your back and place your hands behind your neck. Alternately move your right elbow towards left knee, and left elbow towards right knee.
Lie on your back with a ball or firm round cushion under the injured leg. Lift your backside up from the floor and stretch the healthy leg. Hold the position for a few seconds.
Stretching is carried out in the following way: stretch the muscle group for 3-5 seconds. Relax for 3-5 seconds. The muscle group should subsequently be stretched for 20 seconds. The muscle is allowed to be tender, but must not hurt. Relax for 20 seconds, after which the procedure can be repeated. The time consumed for stretching, coordination and strength training can be altered depending on the training opportunities available and individual requirements.

STEP 1
The indications of time after stretching, coordination training and strength training show the division of time for the respective type of training when training for a period of one hour. The time indications are therefore not a definition of the daily training needs, as the daily training is determined on an individual basis.
