Toe Press

Toe Press: Begin by sitting in a leg press machine, keeping your back pressed firmly into the padded seat. Place your toes on the footplate at a comfortable distance apart. Straighten your legs, unlock the carriage release bars located on the sides of the machine and allow your heels to drop as far below your toes as possible. Keeping your knees stable, slowly press your toes as high up as you can. Contract your calves, and then slowly reverse direction, returning to the start position.
