How to perform

  1. 1

    Lie on your back with one leg extended above you, with the hip at ninety degrees. Keep the other leg flat on the floor.

  2. 2

    Loop a belt, band, or rope over the ball of your foot. This will be your starting position.

  3. 3

    Pull on the belt to create tension in the calves and hamstrings. Hold this stretch for 10-30 seconds, and repeat with the other leg.

Important tips

  • Drive through your whole foot, not just your toes.

  • Keep your knees tracking over your toes.

  • An honest range of motion beats a heavier load.
