How to do smith toe raise
- Adjust the smith machine bar to a height that allows you to comfortably stand with your feet flat on the ground.
- Position yourself under the bar with your shoulders directly below it and your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Place the balls of your feet on a raised platform or weight plates, with your heels hanging off the edge.
- Grasp the bar with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Engage your core and keep your back straight throughout the exercise.
- Slowly raise your heels as high as possible, lifting your body weight onto the balls of your feet.
- Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your heels back down to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
