Exercise notes

  • HOW: Position yourself close to a wall in front of you and place your hands on the wall. Proceed to take a step back with one foot where you can still keep your heel on the ground. Then let your knee bend on the foot you took a step back with and slowly lean forward.

 

  • FEEL: You should feel a stretch towards the bottom of your calf and above your heel. This will feel like a deeper stretch compared to a traditional calf stretch.

 

  • COMPENSATION: Be sure to look down and make sure your foot is facing forward. Do not let your foot turn outwards or let your heel come up
