How to do it

  1. Step under the shoulder pads and place the balls of your feet on the edge of the platform, heels hanging off.
  2. Stand tall with your knees straight but not locked and your core braced.
  3. Lower your heels slowly until you feel a deep stretch in your calves.
  4. Rise as high as you can onto the balls of your feet, pause briefly, and avoid bouncing at the bottom.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
