Calf Raises

Calves Other

Description

Calf raises on a stepper involve performing the traditional calf raise exercise on a raised platform, such as a stepper or box. Individuals stand on the edge of the stepper with the balls of their feet, then lift their heels as high as possible by pushing through the toes, targeting the calf muscles. This variation increases the range of motion of the exercise, providing a deeper stretch and contraction of the calves, which helps to strengthen and tone the muscles more effectively.

How To

01 Step onto the platform, balls of feet planted
02 Brace your core, keep your chest tall
03 Drive through your toes, rise as high as you can
04 Pause and squeeze at the top
05 Lower under control for a deep stretch
