How to perform

  1. 1

    Place your right heel on a step with your knee extended and lean forward to grab your right toe with your right hand. Your left knee should be slightly bent and your back should be straight.

  2. 2

    Support your weight on your left leg and place your left hand on your left thigh.

  3. 3

    Pull your right toes toward your knee until you feel a stretch in your calf.

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.
