Split 4!

The most underrated muscle for runners! It’s the soleus, part of the calf muscle. 🦵 The soleus is active throughout the gait cycle so focusing on it (bent knee plantar flexion exercise) is also important for runners. Strengthening this muscle has been shown to improve running economy and help prevent injury. Here’s 3 exercises you can do from home: 1️⃣ Forward Step Down: Keep one leg straight and bend at the knee until your foot is flat form the ledge. This is also great for the knee joint! 2️⃣ Soleus / Calf Raise: Use a book or block (ideally), bend at the knee and add load using a dumbbell or kettlebell. Lift from the heel and return. 3️⃣ Bent knee calf raise: A great exercise to add load without equipment. Use a chair for support if required. ✅Try doing 10-20 reps on each and add these into your weekly routine. @underarmour @uarunning Wearing the Velociti Flow AD / ambassador #fitness #runningtips #runnersofinstagram #running #runners #fitness #fitnesstips 02/09/2024
