Description

You are standing, facing a step or a stair, with the leg to be worked on placed forward on the step. You will step up onto the step using the forward leg to lift your body weight, then bring the opposite leg onto the step. Then you return to the ground in reverse, stepping down with the working leg after the opposite leg. In case of severe pain, you can step down with the working leg first followed by the opposite leg.
