Seated Toe Tap Exercise

Описание: A leg & ankle strengthening exercise called Toe Taps can help with movement & range of motion.

This exercise is ideal for seniors & the elderly, especially those with balance issues, because it focuses on timing & muscle coordination.

Physical Therapist, Dr. Michael White, demonstrates how to perform a modified version of the exercise while seated on a chair. Follow these steps to get started:

Step 1:
Sit up straight with your feet flat on the ground.

Step 2:
Bend your toes toward the ceiling and back to the floor.

Step 3:
To increase the difficulty of this exercise, sit on the edge of your seat with your legs straight. Keep your heels on the ground as you bend your toes upward and then back.

Step 4:
Perform 8 to 10 repetitions to strengthen your calves, ankles & the muscles running alongside your shins.
