How to do it

Steps :

1.) Start by setting up an incline bench in front of you while you position the balls of your feet in other a step or block behind the bench.

2.) Slowly bend forward so that your forearms are rested upon the bench and extend one of your legs behind you or curled around the other foot.

3.) Slowly let one of your heels drop towards the floor as this will be your starting position.

4.) Then raise your heel slowly up off of the floor as high as possible, squeezing your calf and hold for a count.

5.) Return back to the starting position.

6.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
