Dumbbell Standing One Leg Calf Raise

Expert Advice

Maintain a slight bend in the knee of your standing leg to prevent locking out and to keep tension on the calf muscle.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand upright holding a dumbbell in one hand and use the other hand for balance.
  2. Lift one foot off the ground and balance on the ball of your other foot.
  3. Raise your heel as high as possible, focusing on contracting your calf muscle.
  4. Slowly lower your heel back to the starting position.
  5. Complete the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other leg.
