Standing Gastrocnemius Calf Stretch

Calves · Other

How to do it

Place your right heel on a step with your knee extended and lean forward to grab your right toe with your right hand. Your left knee should be slightly bent and your back should be straight. Support your weight on your left leg and place your left hand on your left thigh. Pull your right toes toward your knee until you feel a stretch in your calf.

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.
