Loop a resistance band around your ankle and fix the other end to something solid near the floor (for example a table leg). Lie on your front. Bend your knee against the band, bringing your heel toward your buttock, then return slowly with control.
If an exercise hurts more than you expect, stop and contact your clinician.
