REAR HEEL RAISE

BOTH HEEL RAISE

Maintaining the squatted lunge position, smoothly lift either one or both heels off the floor, focusing on taking your body directly upwards to maximize the benefits for you calf muscles.

This exercise can be performed with weights to increase the difficulty, however if using weights, aim to keep them close to your center of gravity - (close to your body) dumbbells with straight arms.
