   Our user asked: "what is the purpose of the 'big pinch'? (sqeeze)"

Ask a PT Response: "Are you referring to a quad set where you tighten your thigh muscle (quad muscle)? The primary purpose of a quad set is to help with strengthening/maintaining quad strength. It also can assist with helping achieve further knee extension if lacking."
