Single-Leg Standing Heel Raises and Dorsiflexion With Weight

Description

Stand on one leg with a weight in your hand or with a weighted backpack. Place the front of the foot on a support such as a weight disc or similar equipment. Keep your knee straight throughout the exercise. Slowly rise onto the ball of your foot. Then, lower your heel as much as possible, without bending the knee, to utilize the full range of motion of the exercise. Then rise again to repeat the movement. Make sure to maintain a controlled pace.
