Single-Leg Bent-Knee Calf Raise promote overall lower leg strength and especially works the stabilization muscles that support the ankle.

Step 1
Stand on the balls of one foot with your knee slightly bent. Take a chair for support if needed.
Step 2
Pointing your toes forward, bend your calves to lift your body as high as you can. Pause, then lower yourself to return to the starting position.

Single-Leg Bent-Knee Calf Raise targets Calves as seen below.

Contract your calves in the peak extension of the movement.
Drop your heel as low as you can at the bottom of the movement for maximum stretch.
