Single-Leg Slantboard Calf Raise with Isometric Pause
Perform a single-leg calf raise on a slantboard with the opposite knee driven high. Lower into deep dorsiflexion for an isometric stretch, then press up through full range to peak plantarflexion. Key points: - Lower under control into deep dorsiflexion to get an isometric hold at the bottom - Drive all the way up through the ball of the foot into full extension - Hold the non-working knee driven up at hip level for balance Common mistakes: Bouncing out of the bottom without controlling the ankle range of motion.
