Barbell Floor Calf Raise
Expert Advice
Perform the exercise with slow, controlled movements to maximize muscle tension and avoid bouncing at the bottom.
How-to-do Steps
- Sit on the floor with your legs extended and a barbell placed over your lower thighs, near your knees.
- Place your feet on a raised surface so that your heels can move freely.
- Push through the balls of your feet to raise your heels as high as possible, contracting your calf muscles.
- Slowly lower your heels back below the level of the raised surface to stretch your calves.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
