wow its very helpful post because nowadays everyone's having pain
Thanks! I have a lot more coming to help with all areas of the body.
Great post! Do you think these stretches would work without a ball? My calves are so tight and thick that I can barely wear boots :( I don't know if that would fix it but it's worth a try!
A little but you can use a tennis ball or another type of ball to do the exercises as well. The ball really helps pressure point release. Otherwise, there are better calf exercises w/o a ball. Straight leg calf stretch, downward dog pose, soleus muscle stretch, stretching off a step. Also, Foam rollers REALLY help @sunravelme
Thank you! That's a very through answer and I look forward to some nice loose calves!
