Pt. is 40 year female/male post-surgical repair of R Achilles tendon during a basketball game. PROM limitations include DF 0/firm; PF 30/firm; inversion/eversion WNL. Pt. is 50% accurate in proprioception around R ankle. All ankle motions are 2/5. The patient is just entering controlled motion-the best exercise/activity to start to work on kinesthesia of the ankle is:
