- Start by standing on a step with both feet.
- Shift your weight to the leg that will remain on the step.
- Slowly bend at the hip and knee of your stance leg, controlling the movement as you lower your other leg toward the ground.
- Gently tap your heel on the floor without putting any weight through it.
- Push through the heel of your stance leg and straighten at the hip and knee to return to the starting position.
- Ensure your knee stays aligned with your second toe and avoid letting it collapse inward.
- Keep your hips level throughout the movement to maintain balance.
- Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
