Seated Calf Raise Machine

Instructions

  1. 800 seated calf raise1
    Sit with your knees under the pads, and your toes and the balls of your feet on the step so your heels are unsupported. Your knees should be bent 90 degrees with your toes facing forward. Lower your heels as far as possible until you feel a stretch in your calves.
  2. Seated Calf Raise Machine
    Push up onto the balls of your feet, raising your heels above your toes or until you reach maximum extension. Repeat through the full range of motion

Trainer’s Tips

  • The weight should be heavy, but your heels need to raise well above the foot platform at the apex of each rep. Performing fewer reps with heavy weight is not an excuse for crap form. You still need to be achieving a full range of motion.
