Description: Stand on one leg on a trampoline, keeping your body upright. Try to maintain your balance by controlling the movements of your foot and ankle. Switch legs after 30 seconds.

Tips: Keep your gaze fixed in front of you to better stabilize your posture. Slightly contract the muscles of your foot and ankle to improve control. Do not rush; perform the movements slowly and precisely.
