Calf size

2016/7/22 10:13:34


Question
Hi there,I am currently starting to jog and I find that my muscles are pretty tight(and my calves are pretty big-sized compared to my upper body,inproportional) after jogging even after a day's rest.What kind of stretching exercises can I do to relieve it?

Also,I would like to ask if there is any right technique to jog so that my calves will not increase or decrease in size?

Will stretching of my calves before and after jogging extensively help reduce it?

Thanks

Answer
dear Angeline
To strech your calfs you want to face the wall and place your feet about 18 to 24 inches away then lean forward and place your hands on the wall and then slightly relax your knees and then you should feel a strech in the calfs.Just keep making little ajustments to get a better strech.

Their is no way to jog to reduce your calf size unless  their is fat tissue which needs to go.Running will actually define your calfs for the good.

The very best to you
