Seated Calf Raise

Aim

To develop the lower and outer areas of the calf muscles.

1) Sit in an upright position with the knees placed at 90 degrees. Position balls of feet on step or any ledge(heels should be off of step). Knees should be directly over the ankles (knees bent at 90°). Place bar on top of thighs just behind your knees.
2) Start position: raise heels up by pushing off the balls of feet.
3) Lower heels to below level of step.
4) raise weight by pushing off balls of feet so that heels are above level of step.
5) Remember to sit upright with back and head straight in a neutral position.
