Exercises.
If there was any other way of getting pretty feet ready for these additional inches, I would of foiund it by now but there isn’t and so, exercise it must be. Check out these quick and simple-ish exercises to make heel life easier.
Stick to them because they do work and if you have leg weights, all the better.
1. Single Leg Squat
Stand in the position to squat but with your leg outstretched forward.
2. Alphabet Feet aka Ankle Rotation.
This is a fun and easy one, sit back raise your feet and spell out the letters of the alphabet with your feet. Repeat 3 times.
3. Calf Raises
Stand with your heels touching and feet facing outwards at a 45 degree angle. Now raise on your toes, hold for 2 seconds and gently lower your heels to the ground. Repeat 15 times for 3 sets.
4. High Heel Lifts
Stand 10 inches away from a wall with your feet slightly apart.
Place your hands on the wall for balance.
Tighten your tummy muscles.
Slowly lift your heels as high as you can, squeeze calves & then lower the ground.

Basic with Life
The first time I put heels on after lockdown I was in pain before I had even left the house. Thankfully it’s a lot better now but I still moan about them.
