Use the imperative form to give an order, to give a warning or advice, and
(if you use "please") to make a request.

To make the imperative, use the infinitive of the verb without 'to':
"Come here"
Bend your leg

To make a negative imperative, put "do not" or "don't" before the verb:
"Don't lift you leg"
"Do not push your feet"
