  • Good video, but one question:

    how will a cable provide more consistent resistance than a band? When setup properly, there is nothing more consistent than band resistance...right?

  • A band is of variable resistance. The further your stretch a band the greater the tension.

  • Thank you for the information. Great video!

  • very nice explanation of the exercise, thanks a lot !!

  • listen with ur eyes closed

  • Hello,

    I am 22 y.o. female and I have VM atrophy on my right thigh. The doctor said: "It happens for unknown reasons. It will go away by itself." But I am very concerned - the muscle (VM) seemed to disappear completely - there is just a shallow spot on my thigh, where the muscle supposed to be. It doesn't affect my walking. Yet. Do you think these exercises will help?

  • Is is even better to do this only standing on the bad leg to train balance too? Or is it necessery to keep the knee going straight forward by helping out with the good leg?

  • Very informative video.

    Metriks' FCE software allows the healthcare professional to objectively quantify and report on a person's functional abilities.

  • sick calfs

  • I've never heard vastus medialis abbreviated...and why would it be abbreviated VMO? just wondering

  • @xHIRx VMO= vastus medialis oblique.

  • @xHIRx Vastus Medialis Oblique

  • I had an ACL reconstruction surgery 8 months ago and strenghting this musle has been extremely hard. Is this a safe exercise for me?

  • Hello and thank you for the infomation. I am four months post op for a knee cap dislocation I had mpfl reconstruction and I am doing great. I just wanted to ask what more can I do to train this muscle

  • had to operate my patellae cuz my vastus medialis was too weak, this causes a disbalance in ur patellae axis!

    so train this muscle as good as u can to get a straight movement of ur kneecap.

  • Really helpful and well explained. Thanks guys, I'll be using this one for sure.

  • great video have used it to help rehabilitate my knee thanks heaps

  • Excellent! Very much appreciate the solid explanation!

  • Adin - Would this exercise tend to help a chronic quadricep tendonitis problem (pain at the top of the knee cap) or would this exacerbate the problem? Thanks!
