The Hack One Leg Calf Raise is an exercise that targets the calf muscles and helps to improve ankle strength and stability.
How to perform
To perform the Hack One Leg Calf Raise, follow these steps:1. Stand on a raised platform (such as a step or sturdy weight plate) with the balls of your feet on the edge of the platform and your heels hanging off.
2. Hold onto a support for balance if needed.
3. Shift your weight onto one foot and lift the other foot off the platform, bending at the knee so that your leg is raised in the air.
4. Slowly lower your heel towards the ground, feeling a stretch in your calf muscle.
5. Push through the ball of your foot to lift your body back up onto your toes, raising your heel as high as possible.
6. Pause at the top of the movement, then slowly lower your heel back down towards the ground.
7. Perform the desired number of repetitions on one leg before switching to the other leg.
8. Aim to complete 2-3 sets of 10-15 repetitions on each leg.
Remember to keep your core engaged and maintain good posture throughout the exercise. Focus on controlling the movement and squeezing your calf muscles at the top of the motion for maximum benefits.
