How to perform

  1. 1

    Sit up straight on an exercise mat.

  2. 2

    Bend one knee and put that foot on the floor to stabilize the torso.

  3. 3

    Straighten your other leg and flex your ankle.

  4. 4

    Using a band, towel, or your hand if you can reach, pull the toes toward you. Hold for 10 to 20 seconds, then switch sides.

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.
