Knee mobility exercise - Heel slides

The athlete lies on their back on a hard surface. Wearing socks to ensure the foot slides, the heel is slowly moved up towards the buttocks, as far as is comfortable. After a minute or so, further movement may be possible. A towel or strap wrapped around the ankle can be used to help in the very early stages.
