Pro Tip

Controlled Movements: When performing the exercise, make sure to raise your heel as high as you can, then lower it back down slowly and controlled. Avoid bouncing or using momentum to lift your heel, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the exercise and potentially lead to injury. Foot Placement: Keep your supporting foot flat on the ground and make sure your weight is evenly distributed. Avoid rolling your foot inward or outward, as this can lead to ankle strain or injury. Regular Breathing: It might seem trivial, but maintaining regular breathing throughout the exercise is crucial. Inhale
