  • Tight calves can cause major issues through the body and most of us have chronically tight calves. This pandiculation can really help restore natural length to your calves. It's easy to do and you can do it anywhere you have a wall for support. Give it a try and lemme know what you think!

    This is very well-timed as I experienced a lot of calf tightness during a run yesterday on icy roads: fear of slipping added tension to my gait and I had to stop toward the end and stretch to prevent cramping. I'm eager to try these exercises out!

      Seems to have worked judging by yesterday's pain-free 11 mile run! @@DoctorBen Also I wore compression sleeves on my calves which at the very least gives a psychological boost (and keeps your legs warm). I'm going to incorporate these exercises in my regular strengthening/stretching routine.

      Glad the exercises helped and there nothing wrong with a psychological boost! Happy running!

      You don’t want to be trying to maintain maximum tension. You want to be slowly and consciously releasing tension. Think about relaxing not tensing.
