Place the balls of your feet on the edge of a step or platform, with your heels hanging off. Hold onto the bar for support. Raise your heels as high as possible, lifting your body up onto your toes. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your heels back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
