Stretching
10 minutes of each training session
Stand with your arms resting against a wall and your working leg stretched out behind you so that you feel a stretch in your calf muscle. Slowly bend the knee of your working leg so that you feel an increasing stretch in your calf muscle. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise on the other leg.
Stand on your left leg. If necessary, use your left hand to support yourself against the wall. Bend your right knee and wrap your right hand around the big toe side of your forefoot, so that the ankle is stretched and turned slightly outwards, bringing your heel towards your buttock and creating a gradual stretch along the inside of your shin. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds. Repeat the exercise, alternating between your right and left legs.
Coordination
5 minutes of each training session
Stand on one leg on the floor. Look forwards and keep your knee slightly bent. Initially, support your hand against the wall. Later, make the exercise more difficult by closing your eyes.
