Yoga For Calves

Enjoy this 23-minute Yoga for Calves coming to you from the new YWA digs! Stretch, flex, and increase your range of motion with this sweet and satisfying calf focused session. Throughout this practice I will guide you through a variety of functional movements that will help you to release muscle stiffness in the legs and improve your blood circulation.
Did you know that calves are also known as the “second heart” of the body? The muscles of the calf are POWERFUL in aiding healthy body function! That is because they aid in the flow of blood, in an effort against gravity, from the lower body back to the heart.
Add this practice to your repertoire to improve circulation, enhance mobility, prevent muscle cramps and risk of injury, or if you participate in activities involving a lot of lower body exercise (i.e. running, hiking, soccer, etc.)!
Let me know how it goes for you in the comment section below!

I have had cramps in my right calf recently and earlier today I thought about "wonder if Adriene has a video for that?" I SWEAR this woman can read my mind!

[@jenncrane7258]

I started this practice in tears and feeling very heavy. I actually wasn’t sure if I should start while crying. But I did and it helped me feel not as alone when Adriene came on the screen. I ended it feeling a lot lighter than when I started. That’s why I love yoga. Thank you Adriene!

[@adedow1333]

I'm sorry today is rough, Jenn. You're doing great. ❤ Well done, indeed.

[@Abdysch]

This too shall pass, dear! Sending you a lot of hugs. Hope you feel much better now

Love your new yoga space! After three years of daily YWA I took four months off, and boy, am I feeling it. It’s great to be back. Thanks Adriene x

[@alyssasings21]

I love how even when it’s a “focused” body part practice it still encompasses full body awareness and has full body impact! It’s all connected baby! Thank you Adriene always!!

[@janetlambert2653]

I started my Yoga Journey with Adriene when I turned 50 yrs, now 54 and a half. It was a late start but hey never too old to try something new. I practice daily morning to begin my day with a full body stretch of 15 mins and evening 20-30 mins for the whole body and feet and have not missed a practice. The practices just keep getting better and seem so easy now that I have been practicing for 4 years. I find my wrists hurt but i know when to stop and rotate to take the pressure off. This is going to me my daily practice for the next week. Thank you Adriene for this beautiful practice as my calves need much love daily. Much Love from Australia.

[@christinarave]

Well said! ☺️ You know what they say, 'its never too late' and we continue to learn every single day. I started when I was 51 and I'm almost 58 now. I have incorporated yoga into every single day. I actually cannot imagine a day without yoga. All thanks to the truly wonderful and sublime Adriene. The benefits of yoga cannot be underestimated. Have a beautiful day 💞🤗💞

[@janetlambert2653]

@@christinarave So good to hear that you are still doing Yoga at 58. Well done! I agree the benefits of Yoga by far are better than anything else I have ever done when it comes to exercise. Have an awesome day!🙂

[@christinarave]

@@janetlambert2653 Thank you very much for your lovely reply. Yoga really is the best. It's helped me in so many ways. Keep going on your journey, it really is quite a special thing. Sending you warmest wishes ☺️

[@HeartfulFluency]

Oh wow, the calves are known as the second heart?! I didn't know that. But it makes total sense. Similar to how they say in kundalini yoga that the arms are an extension of the heart. Thank you for shining your beautiful light so brightly, dear Adriene. 💛✨

[@thefed74]

I've never caught a YWA video as it has gone live before… I'm so excited to join everyone!

❤❤❤❤❤

[@fluffyross2297]

Great practice Adriene. 👍 I did struggle quite a lot today, it's hot here in the UK, and my Fibromyalgia is acting up this morning. (It really doesn't like the temperature changes.) So I had to pause the video quite a few times, to breathe, and switch my fan on so, I had air to breathe. But all in all I really enjoyed this practice. It's funny I'm sure at times you can read my mind, because I went to London last week, and did lots of walking. My calves, and other parts of my leg, have been complaining ever since, and today you bring this practice to me. It's so funny when that happens. Thank you so much Adriene, and Benji. You are awesome. See you tomorrow. Namaste. 🙏🧡

[@sophiecote2899]

I've been dealing with plantar fasciitis for a decade now and have a new flare up since May. I've been doing this video almost every day since it came out and it has helped my recovery tremendously! Thank you Adriene!

[@litmint9790]

While I miss A commenting here, I can appreciate the joy and relief that comes from taking it easy with the whole social media sitch. 🌅

[@lucybayle1082]

I sprained my ankle pretty bad while climbing a few weeks ago and am slowly getting back to yoga. In just a few weeks of not using it, the calf muscles in my right leg got sooo weak and stiff. This was perfect and so helpful, thank you🩷

[@scootertart]

As always- its delightful to see a new practice from Adriene uploaded on KZbin - much love and namaste to everyone today ;)

[@JlSned]

Love this practice! It was designed with the calves in mind but I find it to be fantastic for stretching out my back as well. I deal with chronic back pain and never know how the day will greet me. This one hits many of the hot buttons. Thank you for these types of sessions!

[@wanderwildes]

Congrats on the new digs and another great practice! It was indeed sweet and satisfying (and sneaky with the planks)! Loved it.

[@nicolelemire3713]

☀️💗☀️ Namaste & so thankful for Adriene Benji & team!

[@Amy-hx9tf]

What an amazing full-body practice that also stretches the calves/hamstrings/ankles! Really enjoyed this one. Many thanks.

Gracias Gracias Gracias. Namaste 🙏 ❤❤

[@emmaw944]

My calves have been really heavy felling today. Adrien always seems to know what i need. I do her yoga everyday sometimes its a ten min bedtime one but she is a constant in my life❤ and i love this community

[@fluffyross2297]

It is an honour to practice alongside you, and sweet Benji. Thank you so much Adriene, your yoga practices help me so much, and are one of my favourite parts of the day. I love your new practice space, and how chilled Benji was by all those big pillows. 😊 I'm loving your June 2024 calendar, I can't wait for tomorrows yoga practice, see you there. Namaste. 🙏🧡

[@marwaeldeeb6894]

Coming on Adrienne's channel with exhausted legs, and found this prize! It was awesome! Thank you Adrienne.

[@CeciliaKautzman]

DELIGHT ✨ | July 29, 2024 | I showed up on my mat again, and right now that's enough! I appreciate the stretches in this practice! 🙏

[@pathertzbach7966]

I just had a massage. I mentioned to the therapist that I am experiencing a plantar fasciitis flare. She noted that my calves are tight and worked her magic. She encouraged me to work on stretching my calves, so I looked to see if Adriene had one for calves and found this gem. Instant addition to my fav list. THANK YOU, ADRIENE!

[@kgdskb]

Thank you wholeheartedly, Adriene and Benji~ 🥰💖

[@deniseyezbick5055]

Love this one!! Feeling so good now. The wild thing was hard, I couldn’t do it as long as you did. However, then I realised that only a couple of months ago I wouldn’t be able to do it at all! I’m getting stronger! Love it. Thank you!!

Best way to start the workweek!thanks Adriene and crew!

[@rosiemae1094]

Just what I needed -- I've been having a lot of tension in my calves due to standing on my feet for several hours each day at work. I've also been trying to get back into a more consistent workout regimen because I always feel so much better after moving my body with intention. This was great for my calves, but also my arms -- wild thing had me shaking like a leaf! So good to get this session in before I go to work today. Thank you, Adriene!

[@judymccallum2545]

Thank you Adriene! Good to see you in 2024! And a new practice is always welcome.

[@silviavazquezbelon]

[@MichaelStallard-qf3rl]

Thank you Adriene for all your help and inspiration. 🤗

[@marisgoldenhour6212]

Get To Know, June 4, 2024. Just when I thought I was building strength I am quickly humbled with extensive use of the guns in tabletop and plank variations. Arms were tested today that's for sure. My first light attempt at wild thing. Never even bothered contemplating it last year while dabbling in the toe dip back into yoga. But today I gave it a go. It was a better start than I expected. That one is a turtle race for me. But happy with the beginnings of something I considered difficult. Namaste 💙

[@motherpanic]

This was exactly what my body needed today. What great timing.

[@chelseachipping95]

Adriene - all I can say is that you must be a mindreader! Each new video that comes out always targets something I’m feeling a need for in the moment. On top of that, it’s so nice returning to older videos too because they’re so extensive. You have helped in the improvement of my daily life immensely. Thank you so much!!

The synchronicity I have with you and Be Ji is pure SERENDIPITY...just two days ago @ now age 55 ...WHAT 😅...cannot wrap my head around it....was lovingly looking at my calves, rubbing them and thinking 🤔 how they have always been a firm , shapely, strong body part , no matter how far I have wondered off the movement path. Said to hubby ...." I wonder when Adriene will give us a practice for calves....mine have lost muscle tone as I age ?" Boom 💥 I get your email today. Your Spirit ☄️ listens intently and never fails us. ❤ Thank you Adriene. So adore you and Benji 🐾 Buddy

Coming in with a second comment!! I work as a cabin crew and my constantly tired legs and calves went from "crying out loud couch." to "Oh dearie, this is the best Yoga mat time I could ever ask for." Adrienne, you're a blessing to human race! May you be awarded back with every good feeling you put in our lives.
