Exercise Description

The knee tuck to heel raise exercise builds core strength while working your calves. It's a compound move that hits multiple muscles in one smooth motion.

How To

1. Stand tall with feet hip-width apart and arms at your sides 2. Lift one knee up toward your chest while keeping your core tight 3. Lower that leg back down and immediately rise up onto your toes for a heel raise 4. Hold the heel raise briefly, then lower back to starting position 5. Complete all reps on one side before switching to perform knee tuck to heel raise on the other leg

Form Tips

• Keep your core engaged throughout the entire knee tuck to heel raise movement • Don't rush - control both the knee lift and heel raise portions • Balance on one foot during the knee tuck to heel raise to build stability • Keep your lifted knee pointing straight ahead, not out to the side

Common Mistakes

• Leaning too far forward during the knee tuck to heel raise instead of staying upright • Not lifting the knee high enough or rushing through the heel raise portion • Using momentum instead of controlled muscle engagement in your knee tuck to heel raise
