4. Mild Leg Press
Mild leg press exercises can go a long way towards helping an injury of the patellar tendon to recover; usually, this exercise serves much of the same purpose as the leg-lift exercises described earlier on in this article except with the assistance of an exercise machine. It’s pretty obvious that this exercise can be adapted to suit your needs – if you don’t have access to an exercise machine that can help you to do leg press exercises, just adapt the exercises and stick to the leg lifts that are described earlier.
If you do have access to a leg press, moderate use can go a very long way when recovering from a patellar tendon injury or trying to strengthen the muscles in general. What’s excellent about the use of a leg press is the fact that it can be adapted to fit several weights as your tendons start to strengthen.
