[@JessicaDudas]

Do you have Tight Calves? If so, try these stretches out and let me know how they go! 😊

[@TheBarkanMethodofHotYoga]

Wow...great stuff!! Love your tips! Can't wait for more!!

[@JessicaDudas]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful 😊

[@VickyZhaoBEEAMP]

Yes I do have tight calves and they drive me crazy because I can't seem to stretch them out properly. This came at the perfect timing. Subscribed!

[@JessicaDudas]

Oh glad to hear these could help! ☺️

[@jaimetan]

Foam rolling my calves are ALWAYS so painful!! (But so satisfying)... I like standing halfway on a step too, with the heel sticking out and pressing down into it to stretch the calf (but I don’t raise onto the balls of feet, I’ll try that next!)

[@JessicaDudas]

Yes it feels so good right!! Raise i love doing the stair stretch too, I have found over the years adding more eccentric movements after stretches helps with long term adaptations to get the flexibility to stay and not just jump back!

[@CoachShayain]

OMG!!!! This was amazing! I will be trying all of these stretches. Thanks for sharing!

[@JessicaDudas]

My husband just got a foam roller that vibrates, I will use that on my calves tonight!!

[@JessicaDudas]

Oh wonderful! I love using the vibrating foam rollers too, even better for the release! 😊

[@OswaldDigestiveClinic]

Nice video Jessica! I definitely need to create a better routine for stretching, since the yoga studios in my area are still on limitations due to covid.

[@JessicaDudas]

Thank you! Yes try adding these to your routine, its much more challenging now with our usual activities being reduced.

[@YesToTech]

Absolutely adored this! Totally needed these calf stretches! I feel so much better already! :)

[@JessicaDudas]

Thank you Marina! Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@Hila_at_Home]

I always struggled with calf tightness after a workout so will be trying these stretches out next time. Thanks for sharing (plus good to know the proper name of the muscle) :-).

[@JessicaDudas]

Glad I could help! Yes definitely try these out after your next workout! 😊

[@TheOmega3Zone]

Find the standing calf stretch very helpful after a long run. There was some really useful exercises you shared. Thanks. Great video.

[@JessicaDudas]

Thank you so much! Yes give these a try! I’m a runner too and love doing these after 😊

[@TheOmega3Zone]

@@JessicaDudas, You're welcome. That's good to know.

[@KatieVolant]

I do yes!! This is so helpful! I never thought to put both my calves on my foam roller at the same time!! Thank you Jessica!! As always really helpful :D

[@JessicaDudas]

Thank you Katie! 🥰. Glad you found this video helpful and yes try it out on the foam roller i find for me its the only way to get more of a release!

[@marcelanavarro2734]

[@MTBradley]

[@JessicaDudas]

I’m with ya! Haha. Can never get enough of it 😊

[@DrLaraZib]

YES! I get tight calves - loved this, am definitely going to use these stretches - love the downward dog one :-)

[@nillou]

Thank you for making this video!❤ Are foam rollers a must, or can I possibly do sth else instead?

[@NekoRyuukiChan]

The lesson on musculature was interesting, and showing and explaining the two variations of the wall-stretch was helpful. I haven’t found the seated calf stretch to ever accomplish anything, and this time was no different. I would have appreciated more insight into foam rolling, since I find that it helps to rotate my legs on the foam until I find a particularly tender area to roll out (for my calves, it is often most tight on the outside of my calves, rather than straight back). Perhaps this is because I’m carrying extra weight, and that’s where I can more effectively roll, but I don’t really know. I also find that sometimes doing a sort of shallow squat will help stretch my calves out more than the wall stretch does.

[@veronicaandrei4536]

I don't have a foam roller, is there a substitute I could use for it?🤔
