Donkey Calf Raises

Calves · Machine

How to do it

Bent forward with your torso supported and the balls of your feet on a step, hips flexed. That angle stretches the calf from the top and gives a different range from standing raises. Full range up and down. You feel a deeper stretch than usual.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
