Strength: Heel Raises

  • Standing straight with both feet on the ground, raise up slowly onto the tips of your feet, pause, then return slowly until you're standing flat footed again.
  • Repeat 20 times; 3-5 times per day.
  • If this becomes too easy, you can perform on one foot.
Remember: Use caution and consult your physician, physical therapist, or athletic trainer if you're unsure about your exercises.  Do not push into sharp or stabbing pain.
