Standing Hamstring and Calf Stretch

Legs · Other

How to do it

Being by looping a belt, band, or rope around one foot. While standing, place that foot forward. Bend your back leg, while keeping the front one straight. Now raise the toes of your front foot off of the ground and lean forward. Using the belt, pull on the top of the foot to increase the stretch in the 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.
