Comments for Range Of Motion for Rep for Exercise
Amount of Range of Motion


If, for example, you could trace a "map" of the range of motion, is it typical for people to do home exercises using motions that go right to the edge of their range of motion? Or is it enough to go to about 1/2 or 75% of the total range of motion?

Answer from www.stroke-rehab.com: You would want to go through your full available range of motion (don't lock or hyperextend joints though) for most exercises. There are specialized exercises where you may only work on certain points of your range of motion such as working on terminal knee extension, but in general for most exercises, you would try and use your full range.
