In this part of the NEMEX (Neuromuscular Exercise) program, we focus on sit-to-stand exercises and step-ups—two essential lower body strengthening movements. These exercises are commonly used to improve leg strength, control, and functional mobility, especially for individuals with hip and knee conditions.
There are multiple progressions available to tailor the challenge to your current ability, making it suitable for beginners through to advanced rehab stages.
Recommended dosage:
- Sets: 2–3
- Repetitions: 15–20
These exercises form a core part of the NEMEX strength component and can help improve your ability to move safely and confidently in daily life.
