Seated Calf Raise

Seated Calf Raise: Begin by sitting in a seated calf machine and place the leg pads of the machine tightly across your thighs. Place the balls of your feet on the footplate and allow your heels to drop as far below your toes as possible. Slowly rise up as high as you can onto your toes until your calves are fully flexed. Contract your calves and then slowly reverse direction, returning to the start position.
