This exercise both stretches and strengthens your calf muscles. It requires a calf block or other short support. To increase resistance, hold a dumbbell on the same side as the leg you’re exercising.

1. Position the toes of your right foot on a calf block or other short support, with your heel and arches hanging off.
2. If you wish, place your hand on a support for balance.
3. Lift your left leg slightly by bending your knee.
4. Raise your right heel by extending your ankle as far as possible.
5. Lower your heel and repeat.
6. Perform the same motion with your left leg.
