Standing heel raise

The exercise is self-explanatory. It is among the basic exercises for calf muscles which can
also be used as a warmup before more extensive resistance training. It may also help
improve balance in older adults or those recovering from injury.
Step 1 – To do the exercise, just raise your heels and thus stand on your toes.
Step 2 – It is good to hold something like a chair or use a wall as support.
Additionally, ensure that the body remains straight with ankles, knees, pelvis, and
head in a straight line during the exercise.

• Repeat 10-12 times
