Calf Raise – feet rotated inwards
Calf Raise – feet rotated inwards shifts emphasis slightly toward the inner calf while challenging foot alignment. Treat the angle as subtle—too much rotation often turns it into a compensation drill instead of strength work.
Instructions
Stand upright with feet hip-width apart and toes slightly rotated inward. Keep the knees straight but relaxed. Rise onto the balls of the feet by pushing evenly through the big toes. Pause briefly at the top, then lower the heels slowly and under control back to the ground.
Avoid Common Mistakes
• rotating the feet too aggressively
• rolling the ankles inward instead of staying stable
• bouncing at the bottom
• bending the knees excessively
Variations
• with bodyweight
• with added load
• with pause at the top
• single-leg
• slow controlled lowering
