Start off without resistance (weights), gradually add resistance if tolerated.
Raise the body part for 3 seconds, then lower it for 3 seconds.
Stretch before you start your strengthening program.

Safety for StrengtheningSafety for Strengthening
Avoid "locking" the joints in your arms and legs in a tightly straightened position.
None of the exercises you do should cause pain. The range within which you move your arms and legs should never hurt.

Flexibility ExerciseFlexibility Exercise
Stretch before/after you do your regularly scheduled strength and endurance exercises.
If you can't do endurance or strength exercises for some reason, and stretching exercises are the only kind you are able to do, do them at least 3 times a week, for at least 20 minutes each session.

Flexibility Exercises
Do each stretching exercise 3 to 5 times at each session
Slowly stretch into the desired position, as far as possible without pain, and hold the stretch for 10 to 30 seconds, while counting out loud. Relax, then repeat, trying to stretch farther.
A safe stretch is gentle and relaxing. If the stretch hurts: STOP
