How to perform it
Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your hands on your hips. Shift your weight onto your left leg and lift your right foot off the ground, bending your knee. Slowly curl your right heel towards your glutes, squeezing your hamstring. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your right foot back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch legs.
