My wife was undergoing physical therapy for her achilles tendon. The device I drew up is very similar to the one used as a stretching aid by the therapists for her achilles. She was undergoing physical therapy, but in light of the CORVID-19 pandemic, the therapy was deemed unnecessary. She described what she wanted and showed me a picture. I was able to mimic the photo, and drew this more for medical purposes than anything else. You have to print it dense enough to easily carry your weight. Make sure you have stable things to grasp as a balance aid. Great for runners, easily helps you maintain max stretch with minimal effort. It's designed to be used with shoes (despite picture)
