Instructions
1. Stand upright with your feet hip-width apart.
2. Step forward with one foot and press through the ball of that foot, raising your heel off the ground to perform a calf raise.
3. As you accentuate the peak contraction in your calf muscles, maintain your balance and control.
4. Lower your raised heel back to the ground as you step forward with the opposite foot.
5. Again, press through the ball of the foot, lifting the heel off the ground to perform a calf raise on the other leg.
6. Continue to alternate between each leg as you 'walk' forward, focusing on the contraction of the calf muscles with each step.
7. Keep the movement smooth and controlled, with a slight pause at the top of each calf raise to maximize muscle activation.
8. Perform the desired number of repetitions or for a set distance.
Safety Tips: Move in a controlled manner to prevent loss of balance. Ensure you have sufficient space to walk forward without obstacles. If necessary, perform the exercise near a wall or rail for extra support.
