How to perform it
Adjust the seat of the leverage machine so that your shoulders are aligned with the lever pad. Place your toes on the lever pad, with your heels hanging off the edge. Grasp the handles or side supports for stability. Push the lever pad down by extending your ankles, contracting your calf muscles. Pause for a moment at the bottom of the movement. Slowly return to the starting position by allowing your heels to rise back up. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
