Standing Calf Raise

Grow your calves with full range of motion. AI ensures you aren't bouncing and are hitting peak contraction.

Instructions

• Stand with toes on a raised surface (step/plate).
• Lower heels down for a deep stretch.
• Press up onto balls of feet as high as possible.
• Squeeze calves at the top.
• Lower slowly.

Common Mistakes

• Bouncing out of the bottom
• Not lowering heels enough (short ROM)
• Bending knees (turns into soleus work)
• Rolling ankles out

Benefits

• Calf Size
• Ankle Stability
• Explosiveness
