Correct Form

1. Sit on the machine with the balls of your feet on the platform, heels hanging off the edge. 2. Adjust the knee pads so they rest securely on your thighs. 3. Push through the balls of your feet to raise your heels as high as possible. 4. Hold briefly at the top, then slowly lower your heels back to the starting position.

Common Mistake

Avoid using momentum; perform the movement slowly and with control.

Pro Tips

1. Focus on achieving a full range of motion. 2. Ensure your feet are secure on the platform to prevent slipping.
