Begin toe raises on the floor in a standing position with your feet about shoulder width apart.

Using a chair for balance if needed, lift both heels off the floor so that you’re standing on your toes and the balls of your feet. Gradually lower your heels to the floor. Then lift your toes off the floor and shift your weight back so that you rock onto your heels.

Keep your knees slightly bent as you perform this exercise. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
