Circuit 1, Exercise 1: 3 Heel Raises, 3 Toe Raises

  • Stand tall with your feet parallel and core engaged.
  • Slowly raise your heels until you're on your tiptoes, then slowly lower back down to the ground. You should feel this in your calves. Repeat three times total.
  • Next, lift your toes up toward the ceiling (or sky if you're outside) with your heels remaining on the floor. Repeat three times total.
  • This is one rep. Continue doing three heel raises and three toe raises for 30 seconds.

Tip: for the heel raise, if you feel your ankles coming apart, try pressing toward your big toes and the balls of your feet to keep your ankles steady.
