Prone Knee Extension Overpressure (Prone Hang)
Knee · Also called prone knee extension overpressure, prone hang, prone hangs, prone knee extension
Setup
Begin lying face down on a bed or table with your kneecap just past the edge, so your lower leg hangs freely off the end.
Movement
Relax your leg and let gravity slowly pull your knee straight. Hold this position for several minutes as instructed by your therapist.
Tip
Stay relaxed — a gentle, prolonged pull straightens the knee better than force. Your therapist may add a light ankle weight.
