One-Leg Calf Raise
- 1 - Begin by standing with your feet hip-width apart and your back straight. Place your hands on your hips for balance.
- 2 - Shift your weight onto one leg while keeping the other foot slightly off the ground. You can either keep the non-working foot behind you or tuck it behind your calf for balance.
- 3 - Slowly lift your heel off the ground on the working leg. Keep your toes on the ground and use the muscles in your calf to raise your heel as high as comfortably possible.
- 4 - Once you’ve raised your heel as high as you can, pause briefly at the top of the movement to squeeze your calf muscles.
- 5 - Gently lower your heel back down toward the ground, but don’t let it touch the floor.
- 6 - Perform the desired number of repetitions on one leg before switching to the other leg. Aim for 10-15 repetitions per leg, or adjust based on your fitness level.
