Abstract

A lightweight exercise device designed to facilitate blood flow that targets the soleus muscle located in the calf. The device allows the user to perform a heel lift against variable resistance while sitting. This is accomplished by combining a foot platform, resistance band, and a strap which loops around the thigh.
