Training your calves as a strength athlete: A use case for why it can have a huge carryover to stability and control | Ep 34

from The Tommy Brideson Show

Imagine if told you that training your claves would help you squat and deadlift more. Well in todays episode I want to delve into how and why this can be the case. Your first response is likely how would that even be possible, I get it but hear me out. The calves play a large role in stability, power generation and creating stability at the knee and ankle. Your feet are the only contact point with the ground. Surely we need to put some thought into our lower leg if we are looking at long term development? Hosted on Acast.
