Instructions
Preparation
- Sit on bench or stool. Place foot under padded lever with
heel on pedal and other foot off to side.
Execution
- Lift forefoot upward as far as possible. Return by extending
foot until toes are pointed downward. Repeat.
Comments
- Avoid using other muscles to push pedal down with heel as
lever is lifted. Insure full range of motion is practiced. In
starting lower position, scoot back on bench just slightly until
full planter
flexion is felt. Establish range
of motion criteria for highest position.
