  • Sit on a low bench or chair with your feet flat on the floor.
  • Extend the non-working leg slightly forward so only the working leg remains planted.
  • Position your foot directly under or slightly behind your knee.
  • Sit upright with your chest tall and core gently engaged.
  • Lean slightly forward from your hips so your nose moves over your toes.
  • Push firmly through the heel of the working leg to stand up.
  • Keep the non-working leg lifted and your hips level as you rise.
  • Ensure your knee tracks in line with your second toe and does not collapse inward.
  • Slowly lower yourself back down to the bench with control.
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
