Exercise Ball On The Wall Calf Raise Video Guide

1. Set up for the exercise ball on the wall calf raise by getting an exercise ball and set of dumbbells and placing them next to an open space of wall.
2. Grasp the dumbbells in each hand and pick up the ball and hold it to the wall at chest height.
3. With your arms hanging down at your sides, lean into the ball against the wall.
4. Step back until your calves are outstretched when touching the floor.
5. Take the weight off your heels. This is the starting position.
