In either one I would use something that assisted the movement, and very gently.
You may use the leg lift sling, or possibly towel or strap around the foot to very gently apply pressure or assitance while your leg warmed up. Just be careful not to force it. Take your time. And best of luck.

I am nearly 13 weeks now. I remember a time when I thought I would never be able to pull my knee up. I struggled with all the exercises for one reason or another. However if you persevere doing each exercise as well as you are able you will start to see an improvement. Try to do them twice daily but do not push yourself too hard. Aim to bend a fraction more each day, but be prepared to ease down if it is too painful. Listen to your body. It does get better.
