Calf and Leg Strength

This video helps give you ideas on how to build your strength in calves, legs, glutes and feet. You can do them outside, at home, on the yoga mat, using a chair. You can do it barefoot or with shoes.

You can do sections of these activities or you can this as a complete workout.

Key tips:

• Roll back your shoulders and stand nice and tall. This will help engage the right muscles plus help posture muscles.

• You can also add a mini band to these exercises or do without ( like demonstrated).

• Try 2 x rounds of 15 reps. Add more or less reps or rounds to make it easier or harder.

• Try to go slow and controlled, keep breathing and focus on which muscles are working to ensure they are activated and engaged.

• For a challenge with balance, try to only hold one finger on the chair, pole or wall.
