The calf roll with a foam roller helps warm-up and reduce muscle soreness and tightness in the calf muscle.
Instructions
Sit on the ground with your legs extended in front of you and your hands on the ground behind you. Rest one calf muscle on top of the foam roller.
Raise your hips so that your weight is resting on your hands and the foam roller. Then, slowly begin to roll forward and backward so that your calf rolls up and down the roller.
Trainer’s Tips
Avoid moving too fast during the exercise. Perform the movement in a slow and controlled manner.
Avoid holding your breath particularly in tender areas.
