Rolling the calf complex is perfect for some self care after a run but you don’t have to just roll up and down!

Try rotating your foot side to side starting from your Achilles, then into soleus and then into the calf. If you hit a tight spot, hold it on there for a few seconds and the pain should ease. 🤌

Next try flexing and extending your foot with the roller in each position too.👌

Then you can finish rolling up and down a few times.👍

For all the people that are as stiff as me.
This is what I do before most sessions.
1) knight to hamstring, just make sure you tuck your hips under at the start 👌 I do 10 passes each leg.
2) the pigeon, no scared cat (back rounding) have a nice straight back 👍 hold for two minutes each side.
3) adductor stretch, basic but hold this one for five minutes, has been working a treat for me 🤌

THE ACHILLES TENDON 🦶

The strength and flexibility of the Achilles’ tendon is important for everyday activities such as walking, running and jumping. Tightness or soreness in the Achilles is incredibly common among people who exercise regularly, play sport, people who wear poorly fitting shoes or those who wear high heels for prolonged periods of time. All of these can cause stiffness in the muscles of the calf, which in turn places pressure on the Achilles’ tendon.

If you are suffering with Achilles pain and think it may be due to tightness in the calf, get in touch! An Achilles’ tendon with flexibility is the
best way to prevent injury, particularly in sports where the tendon is constantly overloaded 👌🏼
