A Calf Stretcher is a device that isolates the calf muscles for full flexion.
Your lower leg is notoriously hard to target without specific isolation-type exercises – calves resist heavy exercise, as they get everyday use. Yet, the lower leg is an essential area for running, walking, cycling and many other activities. With the Azuni Calf Stretcher, you can rock your way to a firmer lower leg, increase your flexibility and help to prevent injury
Area of Body it Works: Calf muscles, ankles, and Achilles tendons.
Why: Stretching not only increases muscle flexibility, strength and balance but it also helps to prevent future injuries — the problem is that calf muscles are difficult to isolate without the aid of a wall or similar structure to lean against. The Calf Stretcher helps to eliminate this problem and is great for those of us who extensively use our legs for activities such as running.
How: Put one foot on the calf stretcher and slowly rock your heel back as far as you can (but not so far that it hurts) so your toe is pointing up toward your face. Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds. For added support, stand by a wall or something to support yourself while doing the stretches.
