Foam Roll Single Leg Calves gif

Coach's Tips

This exercise targets one calf at a time to relieve tightness. It helps your calves recover and boosts flexibility.

Sit on the floor with one leg extended and the foam roller under your calf. Bend the other knee for support.

1. Lift your hips slightly to shift your weight to your calves

2. Roll slowly from behind your ankle to below your knee

3. To increase intensity, place your other foot on top of your leg

4. Pause and hold pressure if you find a tight spot

5. Massage for 20-30 seconds, then switch legs

Breathe naturally as you roll, and exhale to relax your muscles when the pressure is intense.

Don’t put direct pressure on your knee joints or bones. Adjust the intensity and avoid overloading. Stop right away if you feel sudden pain.
