This was a great course, thank you Nikki. I have a question about last two exercises. [Trapeze: Side lying(for Bow Leg & Tibial Bowing)] : I don't understand why this exercise strengthen the lateral leg and hip. Because the spring tension challenges the adductors(medial leg). [Trapeze: Side lying adductor lift (for Knock Knee)] : I think this challenges the lateral leg and hip for the same reason. |

Dear Tomohiro Thank you for your message. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the course. In answer to your question: Trapeze side lying bow leg and tibial bowing - yes this is correct it will do, but it will also help to balance out the 2 pillows of the leg - the lateral and medial side to help correct the leg alignment Trapeze side lying for knock knee - in knock knees, the medial side of the leg is over stretched, which means I need to strengthen the medial side of the leg to help balance out the lateral and medial sides. I hope this helps. Nikki |
