Calves
How to do it
Execution:
- 1Stand with feet hip-width apart (with the balls of your feet on a platform if available).
- 2Lift your heels to rise onto the balls of your feet, squeezing the calves at the top.
- 3Lower slowly, seeking full stretch at the bottom.
Tip: pause 1 second at the top and 1 at the bottom — time under tension is the key for calves.
