Rock Squat with Calf Raise
Instructions
Starting Position
Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your core engaged.
Keep your chest tall and shoulders back.
Squat Movement
Initiate the movement by pushing your hips back as if sitting down into an invisible chair.
Lower yourself until your thighs are parallel to the floor or lower, keeping your weight in your heels and your knees tracking over your toes.
Calf Raise
Once at the bottom of your squat, maintain the squat position.
Simultaneously press through the balls of both feet to lift your heels off the ground as high as possible, engaging your calves.
Lower your heels back to the floor while continuing to hold the bottom of your squat.
Completion
Drive through your heels to return to the starting standing position.
