For the primary research on soleus pushups : www.cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S2589-0042(22)01141-5 the experiment featured continuous soleus pushups for up to over 4 hours. The muscles don't fatigue given they're slow twitch muscles and the contractions are repetitive and not explosive or powerful. Various times were featured with greater impact over longer periods of time. If you're sitting simply lift the heels.

Wow that is a very cool tip 🤩 would be interested to know what is the optimal number and speed of raising the heels. You did mention ‘sprint’ and ‘4 minutes’ but am very interested to know what was the clinically proven optimal timing 🙏🏻
@eagrinstead1 Жыл бұрын
Thank you. I learned about this but thought, because I saw it being done in lab, it had to have specific parameters or be more complicated to know the muscle was being triggered optimally in order to get the benefit. I'm glad it really is as straight forward as you demonstrated. Thank you.

This is good ! My 89 year old father lives with me and I just had him do that sitting exercise for his feet/ankles. He does walk 3 miles a day off and on my treadmill. But the heel raises really does help the ankles moving. Thank you so much for this ! 👍🏻🤗🏃🏼♀️

I've been doing both standing and sitting heel raises as well as seated toe raises for the last year but only do about 20 reps. I think you have to do many more than 20 to get the effect you describe. I've read where you may be doing hundreds. I still think it is a good thing to do. While sitting doing KZbin watching or reading it would be an easy way to increase my exercise. I normally exercise 6 days weekly for 30-60 min. each depending on the day - I try to do periodized work tied to archery training with cardio, flexibility, strength etc. Ramping up the archery after healing from a shoulder injury.

You do need to repeat it throughout the day to repeat the results the study found. However, it is a BIG eyeopener that 1% of your muscle has THIS much potential impact... and doing something is worth it

I can't be the only old gal that has one weaker side of her body. The surgeon nicked my cerebellum, accidentally; and no, they hid that fact! So for others that have weakness on one side of their bodies can you give ideas as to how to equalize strength in arms? TIA, just part of all that makes life challenging. LOL
