The Knee Glide - What You Should Know

The Knee Glide: A Simple Tool for Knee Recovery

The Bob and Brad Knee Glide is a lightweight, easy-to-use tool designed to help improve knee mobility and strength after surgery or when dealing with arthritis and stiffness. Whether you're recovering from a knee or hip replacement or simply trying to keep your joints moving, the Knee Glide provides a smooth, controlled way to exercise.

Start Your Recovery in Bed

After knee surgery, restoring movement is important. The Knee Glide can be used right from bed. Place your foot on the glide and use the included strap to gently pull your leg toward you, helping bend the knee without relying entirely on your leg muscles.

Progress to Seated Exercises

As mobility improves, the Knee Glide can be used while sitting. Simply slide your foot back and forth to work on knee range of motion. If your surgical leg needs help, use your opposite leg to assist the movement.

The built-in kickstand can also raise the board to create an incline. This adds resistance to challenge the quadriceps while reducing stress on tight or uncomfortable ankles.

Strengthen Your Hamstrings

Turn the Knee Glide around to change the direction of resistance and target your hamstrings. For an additional challenge, you can add a light cuff weight as your strength improves.

Lightweight and Versatile

Weighing less than three pounds, the Knee Glide is easy to move from the bed to a chair or wherever you prefer to exercise. Its simple design makes it a convenient tool for gradually rebuilding knee mobility, strength, and confidence with movement during recovery.
