WHY DO MY CALF MUSCLES GET TIGHT?
Tight calf muscles are a common condition that many people experience at some point in their lives. Your calf muscles are located at the back of the lower leg and control foot and ankle movement.
Many things can cause tightness in the calf muscles, such as lack of stretching, wearing high heels, standing or sitting for long periods, or overuse (common in runners “ramping up” their distance or weight lifters after a heavy “leg day”).
WHY SHOULD I TREAT MY TIGHT CALVES?
By itself, tight calves can cause pain, limited range of motion, and muscle fatigue, which can be frustrating and affect daily activities.
However, if left untreated this tightness and pain in your calves can eventually lead to Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, and other problems that are common in the foot and lower leg. Your best course of action is to treat it early on to avoid any future complications.
BEST EXERCISES FOR TIGHT CALF MUSCLES
If you have tight calves, don’t despair! Exercise can be an effective way to alleviate tightness and pain in the calf muscles. And that’s exactly what I want to help you with in this video!
This is a simple, effective routine that is only 3 minutes long to help alleviate tightness, pain, and discomfort in your calf muscles.
We’ll teach you the right way to massage/mobilize your calves to break up any knots/adhesions/lactate build up in the muscles and then show you two simple stretches you can do anywhere to decrease tension and improve motion.
IMPORTANT POINT!
Each “calf” is actually composed of two muscles - the “gastrocnemius” and the “soleus”. The gastrocnemius is more superficial and sits on top of the deeper soleus. In order to fully rehab your tight calves BOTH muscles should be addressed… which is exactly what I wanted to share with you in this video!

Thank you ❤, this brought instant relief to my days of pain
POV: you are here after ur first leg day 💀
from Taekwondo training here 🥹
I did elavated calf raises so its pain and tightness deep in the upper middle of my calf 0_0
This helped with my foot pain. Running so much.. my calves got tight. Effected my walk.. and gave me foot pain.
THANK YOU!!!
I am a 4.5 year stroke warrior with spasticity in my right calf. I have been stretching daily with knee straight and bent for quite some time. Today I started with my percussion massage gun with the Y attachment head, started with knee straight stretches and then added the “heel position changes”. The I did a repeat with my knee bent. *Serious game changer*!! I then walked with less spasticity, more control, better balance, and for a longer time/further distance!🎉
You are so welcome!
I have pain in my lateral calf. So I’m assuming the massage part of your routine will help. I also have IT band pain on the same leg. I tore my medial meniscus quite badly. That probably plays a role in this dysfunction. Too old for meniscus surgery.
POV your here from tracks training 😭😭
How is that so accurate 😭😭
I am
Rahhhh how
yes
does it work lol
damn this really helped i woke up with my calfs having horrible pain like limping and i had a game today
Uss bro its 6 am i woke up to drink water and fell down on first step😂
I can't thank you enough!
I injured my calf at the treadmill. I was running but I started too quickly (my bad), felt a little bit uncomfortable, pushed it through and finished my run, a while later the pain was in every step I did.
Pain isn't always gain in the gym. I could do the lifting but running or cardio in general was a no no!
Did your streching routine (I did the foam roller at the gym this morning) just now and I felt a million times better!!
THANK YOU!!!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much, i'm sffering calf pain for almost a month, this video really helps me, i only watched it yesterday,strictly follow the massage and stretch, feel better now🤗
Wonderful news!
Sweet relief. The variations on the wall stretch really helped almost immediately.
Great to hear!
I overused my calves today after a really really long time and even twisted my ankle, it was bad when I was awake already but the moment I feel asleep both calves got tightened and it was excruciating and I live by myself, don't know what I'd have done without you, Thankyou so much for the help, really appreciate it.
Im here because of Jump roping (1000 reps) and this works thanks alot!
Here from a phyically demanding job and couldnt get my tennis ball to stay where i wanted! Using your technique was so much better. Thank you!! I can sleep easier now
Great to hear!
Both beginning examples assume the ability to hold one's weight, it would be helpful to have options for anyone who cannot do that
do the next 2 exercises
Great video! I use these stretches to help with my heal pain- they really work!
Awesome! So glad they help!
Since we don’t have a foam roller and I can’t find any type of ball in our home, I thought of using my old solid hydroflask as an alternative roller 😅 this video really helped!
I used a pool noodle wrapped in a towel as a foam roller and it worked pretty well
omg i love this because i read this i used a candle!! it worked great!
Dude, I get a little overwhelmed with information overload on technology
Anyway, I’m a little older and I found you and I just stick with you.
You seem to be extremely knowledgeable and make things easy and accessible for me
Thank you so much and God bless you 🙏😮
Awesome, thank you! I appreciate you and your support!
I'll try it. I'm a marathoner/half-marathoner and for the first time in my life, I quit a race this past Saturday. I've been having calf pain and tightness since December: urgent care, ER, and orthopedist have been little help. I'm about to quit running altogether.
Update: well, this succeeded where everything else failed. 🎉
The tennis ball is really efficient in every self massage way thanks!!!
Amazing - thankyou so much - im not sure if ive done this stretch in years - but 100% relief
You're so welcome! Happy to hear it helped!
After 1st day of leg in gym
No bro i from my last leg day 😢
soleus muscle pain and tightness ugh...from biking! Using cold compress now for relief but need to exercise it back. Good video! Will try after seeing Dr and PT. Thanks
You got this! I hope it helps!
This is awesome. I was in so much pain now I feel so much better
I am so happy to hear that!
this is great but i can barely stand from the calf extensions i did. i'll try to find a roller and the stretches in a few days when i can mange. thanks
Thank you so much, these are helpful exercises.
Is there a relaxing routine to make sleep better or early morning walking easier?
Will it heal by itself?
Without this routine?
The last one is money! Thank you!
Thankyou 1st time pain at taekwondo
Thanks in a heap🎉
My husband suffers for extreme calf pain. We have a foam roller but he would not be able to do that because of his bad shoulders. Would the mobilization exercise be effective if someone were to roll the ball or foam roller on his legs? Thank you for your time. Love all your videos.
I feel better just watching you do it. Ha
Omgosh I already feel better. Wow. Thanks
You are so welcome!
them dunks go hard 🔥🔥🔥 thanks for the tips, i jumped a ton the other day
You know it!
Thanks for this amazing video again! Is there any chance you would create a full body stretching routine that covers everything thats tight? I work with a lot of your videos dedicated to one part buut i think it would be usefull to have like a 10-30 minute full body stretch routine.
Here are a couple you can try! czcams.com/video/KsYUVCZzheQ/video.html and czcams.com/video/TWtaSxV_2IQ/video.html

Only thing I would say that is incorrect in this video, as someone who has been to physical therapy and runs an elite training schedule. Do not keep stretching if you are in “excruciating pain”. Stop, schedule a PT appointment, ice the affected area, and rest.
Hi tone and tighten, i had fever last night and when i woke up i had calf pain. Can you tell me the reason for this please and will these exercises work with this issue?
What do you recommend doing if it feels like youre one wrong move away from a cramp in your calf?
Good question...that's my fear. One wrong move and another calf cramp like it's waiting. Ugh!!
Truly useful video .. thank you for sharing 👍👌
My pleasure, Usha Sundararajan! I hope they help you! Thanks for commenting.

Can tight calves cause front knee pain?
Quite an effective exercise
Thanks
You're welcome!
What if it’s both calves that are tight for the foam roller
Is there such a thing as overdoing or with the foam roller. The pain got worse overnight after foam rolling the night before. I really dig into the tender spots with a roller and fingers.
I have been looking on the internet for the same. After i stretch sore musles the day after im in excrusiating pain and cand walk
The second stretch you showed does nothing but hurt my ankle, I think it's not very beneficial for more flexible people
Thanks this helped me lot ❤ love from canada
You are so welcome!
So helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much.
Hi Jared, my left calf is a little hard on the outside especially but my ache or pain is on the upper calf [the tender soft spot] just behind the knee especially when I flex my foot toes up. I only do the stretch on the wall which is painful on the tender soft spot behind the knee and not the calf.
Hi tone am so greafull for ur help
Could be magnesium deficiency.
Would like to see a video on shin splints and how to stretch and strengthen
Got you covered, Arnie! If you search "Tone and Tighten Shin Splints" here on CZcams the video should come right up for you. Hope it helps!
THANKYOU 😭😭
Thank you sir
You are so welcome!
Good ones, thanks!
Very helpful... keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Is there any alternative way to do the first two? I'm extremely out of shape (working hard on fixing this), and my wrists and arms are very, very weak and can barely support my body weight.
My lip to my toes tingle all the while I’m standing. Very annoying! I’m going to try this bc my calves feel to tight.
Does this help with recurring calf cramps?
very nice video!
Thank you!
Thanks really helpful
No problem!
just right on time ✨
I hope they help you, Nobody! Thanks for commenting.
