Aching calf muscles!
« on: June 13, 2008, 01:13:49 PM »
Is there an excercise to aid really stiff and sore calf muscles?

Last weds session really took it out of me, still hurting now on friday afternoon!  A really great session though, thoroughly enjoyed it.

It will soon be friday evening so will have numbed the pain a bit with liquid refreshments...........

Repeated massaging (especially "vibro"  :oops:) is the only think that works  for me - any calf targeted exercises or stretches just seem to hurt more initially and eventually subside to the previous levels of agony.....

the best thing for you to do is rest and stretch.One stretch you could do is do a lunge forward facing a wall, both feet facing the wall with your hands also on the wall,look forward try not to drop you're (Tsk tsk SP) head to look at the floor. :D

The more you sweat in training the less you bleed in battle,a fool says I can't, a wise man says I'll try.
