The leg press calf raise builds strong, defined calf muscles using the leg press machine. It gives you better ankle stability and more powerful push-off for running and jumping.
1. Sit in the leg press machine and place the balls of your feet on the bottom edge of the footplate 2. Keep your legs straight and let your heels drop down as far as possible to stretch your calves 3. Push through the balls of your feet to raise your heels up as high as you can 4. Squeeze your calf muscles hard at the top of the leg press calf raise movement 5. Lower your heels back down slowly to the starting position and repeat for your target reps
• Keep your legs straight throughout the entire leg press calf raise movement • Push through the balls of your feet, not your toes • Control the weight on the way down - don't let it drop fast • Get the full range of motion by going as high and low as possible
• Bending your knees during the leg press calf raise which takes work away from your calves • Using too much weight and not getting full range of motion • Bouncing at the bottom instead of controlling the leg press calf raise movement
