Large Step Forward With Heel Strike

Description

Stand near a wall with one hand for balance support, feet together. Quickly bring the working leg far in front of you and place only the heel on the floor. Then push strongly through that heel to return to the starting position. The movement should be dynamic, with a large step forward, in order to work the hamstrings in a lengthened position.
