About the Calf Stretch
Calf Stretches are a simple stretch that can help reduce injuries and decrease the likelihood of calf muscle tightness that may be implicated in ankle sprains and other conditions that affect feet and ankles.
Benefits
Calf Stretches can help reduce tension through the calves and improve ankle mobility and flexibility.
