- Begin by standing on a raised surface (such as a step or box) with the balls of your feet on the edge of the surface and your heels hanging off. Hold a barbell across your upper back and shoulders, using an overhand grip.
- Keeping your core engaged and your back straight, push through the balls of your feet to raise your heels up as high as you can.
- Lower your heels back down to the starting position, allowing your calves to stretch.
