I know of several people who have been recommended by their GP when they broke a leg to exercise the other for the same reason. You won't win any bodybuilding competitions, but every little helps.
The mind-muscle connection is suprising, i've seen a study in which a group of people were either told to push their little finger against a sensor thing, or think about doing it. The people who thought about doing it had up to 40% of the muscle gains that the people who did the actual task.

Sounds really cool. One problem though: my other leg has a lacerated achilles and my doctor said I shouldn't strain it too much as he had to sutcher a piece of the achilles back together and he doesent want it to rip or snap. I really dont know if that's right as I was on heavy meds but I think that's about right. Oh, I also think about running alot, shit, I dream about running almost every night.
