DeFrancosGym.com - Exercise Index: Low Box Heel Touches

Use a 6-12" box for this exercise. Because you're balancing completely on one leg, more proprioception, balance and stabilization is required (so activation is greater)! Make sure your "off" leg remains completely straight and the "off" ankle remains dorsi-flexed the entire time...just SLIGHTLY touch your heel to the ground. (This ensures that the leg that's on the box is doing ALL the work.)
FYI, this exercise is MUCH harder than it looks (when done correctly).

Joe, what's the reasoning behind having the descending foot dorsiflexed?
