Description

Adjust the backrest so that your knees extend slightly beyond the seat, remaining in the air. Position the ankle cushion just above your ankles and make sure your knees are well supported by the cushion provided for this purpose. Then bend your knees to pull your heels down by pressing against the cushion. Once down, remove one leg and slowly return to the starting position using only the leg you are working on, controlling the movement. Keep your back straight without arching your lower back throughout the exercise.
