Eccentric Calf Strengthening With Bent Knees

Description

Stand close to a wall. Place your two hands on the wall to stabilize your balance. Bend your knees. Start by transferring your body weight to your uninjured leg, then lift yourself onto the ball of your foot on the same leg. Then, shift your weight to the leg you wish to strengthen, maintaining the constant knee flexion angle. Slowly lower back onto the whole foot. Repeat this exercise several times, ensuring controlled and smooth movement throughout.
