Pro Tip

Correct Form: It's important to maintain the correct form when stretching your calves to avoid injury. Stand straight and tall, lean into a wall with your hands flat against it, and extend one foot behind you, keeping the heel down and the leg straight. You should feel the stretch in your calf, not in your back or shoulders. Gradual Stretch: Avoid bouncing or forcing the stretch. This is a common mistake that could lead to injury. Instead, gently lean into the stretch and hold for 15-30 seconds. You should feel a pulling sensation, but it shouldn't be painful. Consistency: For the best results, stretch your calves regularly. Try to incorporate it into your daily routine
