Lower Body Bed Exercises For Strength and Mobility (Beginner Level)

LOWER BODY BED EXERCISES FOR SENIORS

Join me (Mike – Physiotherapist) for Part 2 of this Bed Exercise Series, where we work the lower body.

These gentle exercises are ideal for anyone spending extended time in bed—whether it’s due to illness, injury, stroke recovery, surgery, or limited mobility.

In this session, we’ll work on improving strength and mobility in the lower body, and finish with deep breathing to support relaxation and circulation.

Not only will these exercises help strengthen and improve the mobility of the areas, they will also be helpful if you’re having difficulty moving in bed, or getting from a lying to seated position. You can progress these exercises by adding in weights or a resistance band..
