Скачать или смотреть The Patient Report: Quadriceps Atrophy after Rhabdo

In September 2023, A 47 year old man presented with significant right quadriceps atrophy after experiencing rhabdomyolysis from a compression injury in July 2023. He had been in rehab for 4+ weeks prior to our meeting but was still experiencing significant knee pain, functional weakness with stairs and right quad atrophy.

When asked about his exercises in rehab he mentioned lunges, squats and bridging. These are fabulous strength exercises when the system is ready, but for a patient dealing with such significant quad atrophy this was simply too much on the system and he was loading his knee joint.

Watch the progression we used to resolve his knee pain and develop his quadriceps muscle. It's not strength-based movements at first. Enjoy!
