Toes In Seated Calf Raise Exercise Video

Exercise Instructions:

Setup for the toes in seated calf raise by loading up the machine with the weight you want to use. Sit on the machine with the padding on top of your thighs and the balls of your feet on the edge of the foot pad. Twist your ankles so that your toes are pointing in at each other (as shown in the video). Push up with your calves to take the weight off rack and slowly let your heels drop as far as possible. This is the starting position for the exercise. Slowly raise your heels up a high as possible. Pause and squeeze the calf muscles, then slowly lower back down as far as possible. Repeat for desired reps.

Tips & Advice:

When pointing your toes in the goal is to place more emphasis on the outer side of your calves. This theory is still debated amongst lifters. Always use a longest range of motion by letting the heels drop as far as possible and pushing your heels up as high as possible. To add intensity pause and hold for a count of 2-3 at the top of the movement (heels up).
