Calf Raise, Standing

Starting Position

• your feet are close to each other
• the balls of the feet are turned outwards a tiny bit
• hold your back straight
• you can hold your hands at your hips

Correct Execution

• lift your heels as high as you can
• avoid swinging the hip
• hold the position for a moment
• the tiptoes do not move
• go back to the starting position slowly and repeat several times

tips for the workout

1. put a plank under the balls of your feet to increase the range of the motion
   • by doing that, you can increase the difficulty a bit, this makes the calf workout even more effective
2. you can also hold weights in your hands or put on a filled backpack to increase the resistance for the feet
