Cable Standing Calf Raise

Stand on the edge of the platform with the balls of your feet securely positioned and heels hanging off, holding onto the cable machine handles for balance.

Keep your body upright with a slight bend in your knees to protect the joints throughout the movement.

Press through the balls of your feet and raise your heels as high as possible to contract your calves.

Pause briefly at the top of the movement while squeezing your calf muscles tightly.

Slowly lower your heels back down past the platform level to feel a deep stretch in your calves before starting the next rep.
