Re: Building Leg Muscle

[Guest guest]

Hi

Ask your PT if you can borrow a standing frame. That is what my son uses and it is strengthening his legs.

I was just wondering if anyone had any good exercises to build up legs muscles? Thaddeus see PT every 2 weeks or so but i was wondering if anyone had anything that worked for them. Im a bit consurned because he wont support any of his weight on his legs. ( PT doesnt expect him to walk for another year or so) None of his doctors are worried about it but just wanted to know if you had some sugestions so we can get him moving, or atleast standing.ThanksMom to Thaddeus 1 year

Ya I got you email thanks. I think that might work when he is a bit bigger. Rightn now if you stand him up he will just bend his knees and sqat. So I'm thinking I'll just have to put him in the jolly jumper more. I saw there is a matt you can get for under the jumper and it plays music while they jump so maybe that will get him motivated. I'm not reall sure what to do Sent from my iPhone
