Step 8Calf Stretch
For this stretch I am going to cover two different techniques. They both work equally, however one is useful if there is nothing to brace yourself against.
Suppose you do have something to brace against; with you palms against the support, put one leg forward, and the other back. The leg that is further from the wall will be the one being stretched. You should feel a pull in your calf. Hold and then switch legs.
This next technique is similar to a push-up. This stretch is done when there is nothing to brace against. Get into to push-up position, and then simply rest one leg on the other. Hold and switch legs.
