Yoga For Calves
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.ย. 2024
- Enjoy this 23-minute Yoga for Calves coming to you from the new YWA digs! Stretch, flex, and increase your range of motion with this sweet and satisfying calf focused session. Throughout this practice I will guide you through a variety of functional movements that will help you to release muscle stiffness in the legs and improve your blood circulation.
Did you know that calves are also known as the “second heart” of the body? The muscles of the calf are POWERFUL in aiding healthy body function! That is because they aid in the flow of blood, in an effort against gravity, from the lower body back to the heart.
Add this practice to your repertoire to improve circulation, enhance mobility, prevent muscle cramps and risk of injury, or if you participate in activities involving a lot of lower body exercise (i.e. running, hiking, soccer, etc.)!
Let me know how it goes for you in the comment section below!

I started my Yoga journey with your videos 8 years ago Adriene. Now I'm starting a Yoga teacher training course. You are a great teacher and I want to thank you for being an inspiration.
congratulations!!!! good luck with your TTC! Namaste
❤❤❤❤❤
I have had cramps in my right calf recently and earlier today I thought about "wonder if Adriene has a video for that?" I SWEAR this woman can read my mind!
❤❤❤❤❤
I started this practice in tears and feeling very heavy. I actually wasn’t sure if I should start while crying. But I did and it helped me feel not as alone when Adriene came on the screen. I ended it feeling a lot lighter than when I started. That’s why I love yoga. Thank you Adriene!
I'm sorry today is rough, Jenn. You're doing great. ❤ Well done, indeed.
This too shall pass, dear! Sending you a lot of hugs. Hope you feel much better now
Dear Jenn everyone is born alone & dead alone. The true friend of everyone is God. If u feel alone then increase u r will power with real meditation. & spend a enjoyable life.
❤❤❤❤
Be kind to yourself, Jenn. Sending you a hug from afar. ❤
I started my Yoga Journey with Adriene when I turned 50 yrs, now 54 and a half. It was a late start but hey never too old to try something new. I practice daily morning to begin my day with a full body stretch of 15 mins and evening 20-30 mins for the whole body and feet and have not missed a practice. The practices just keep getting better and seem so easy now that I have been practicing for 4 years. I find my wrists hurt but i know when to stop and rotate to take the pressure off. This is going to me my daily practice for the next week. Thank you Adriene for this beautiful practice as my calves need much love daily. Much Love from Australia.
Well said! ☺️ You know what they say, 'its never too late' and we continue to learn every single day. I started when I was 51 and I'm almost 58 now. I have incorporated yoga into every single day. I actually cannot imagine a day without yoga. All thanks to the truly wonderful and sublime Adriene. The benefits of yoga cannot be underestimated. Have a beautiful day 💞🤗💞
@@christinarave So good to hear that you are still doing Yoga at 58. Well done! I agree the benefits of Yoga by far are better than anything else I have ever done when it comes to exercise. Have an awesome day!🙂
@@janetlambert2653 Thank you very much for your lovely reply. Yoga really is the best. It's helped me in so many ways. Keep going on your journey, it really is quite a special thing. Sending you warmest wishes ☺️
Jane u can maintain u r youngness & good health forever with meditation daily
@@amanpreet3408 Good to know that you can maintain youthfulness and good health with meditation daily. Thank you for the tip! Have a beautiful day.
I love how even when it’s a “focused” body part practice it still encompasses full body awareness and has full body impact! It’s all connected baby! Thank you Adriene always!!
I've been dealing with plantar fasciitis for a decade now and have a new flare up since May. I've been doing this video almost every day since it came out and it has helped my recovery tremendously! Thank you Adriene!
I just had a massage. I mentioned to the therapist that I am experiencing a plantar fasciitis flare. She noted that my calves are tight and worked her magic. She encouraged me to work on stretching my calves, so I looked to see if Adriene had one for calves and found this gem. Instant addition to my fav list. THANK YOU, ADRIENE!
Wow she’s doing yoga for baby cows now!
😂
But it's not yoga for baby cows😂 it's yoga for your calf muscles
Superb dad joke lol 😄
AHAHAHAH STOP
😂😂😂😂
I've never caught a YWA video as it has gone live before… I'm so excited to join everyone!
❤❤❤❤❤
Oh wow, the calves are known as the second heart?! I didn't know that. But it makes total sense. Similar to how they say in kundalini yoga that the arms are an extension of the heart. Thank you for shining your beautiful light so brightly, dear Adriene. 💛✨
As always- its delightful to see a new practice from Adriene uploaded on TH-cam - much love and namaste to everyone today ;)
My calves have been really heavy felling today. Adrien always seems to know what i need. I do her yoga everyday sometimes its a ten min bedtime one but she is a constant in my life❤ and i love this community
Thank you for taking some time here, with Adriene,Benji and Me
Waking up the body
Namaste 🙏🏼

While I miss A commenting here, I can appreciate the joy and relief that comes from taking it easy with the whole social media sitch. 🌅
Love your new yoga space!
After three years of daily YWA I took four months off, and boy, am I feeling it. It’s great to be back. Thanks Adriene x
Just what I needed -- I've been having a lot of tension in my calves due to standing on my feet for several hours each day at work. I've also been trying to get back into a more consistent workout regimen because I always feel so much better after moving my body with intention. This was great for my calves, but also my arms -- wild thing had me shaking like a leaf! So good to get this session in before I go to work today. Thank you, Adriene!
Love this practice! It was designed with the calves in mind but I find it to be fantastic for stretching out my back as well. I deal with chronic back pain and never know how the day will greet me. This one hits many of the hot buttons. Thank you for these types of sessions!
Adriene - all I can say is that you must be a mindreader! Each new video that comes out always targets something I’m feeling a need for in the moment. On top of that, it’s so nice returning to older videos too because they’re so extensive. You have helped in the improvement of my daily life immensely. Thank you so much!!
❤❤❤❤
Get To Know, June 4, 2024. Just when I thought I was building strength I am quickly humbled with extensive use of the guns in tabletop and plank variations. Arms were tested today that's for sure. My first light attempt at wild thing. Never even bothered contemplating it last year while dabbling in the toe dip back into yoga. But today I gave it a go. It was a better start than I expected. That one is a turtle race for me. But happy with the beginnings of something I considered difficult. Namaste 💙
Whenever i do a run on the treadmill, a home workout, or a long walk in uncomfortable shoes, my calves are so tight and sore the next day - this practice will be one to return to time and time again! 🧡
Same here, especially after long walks 💜🙏🏾
Definitely a go to after running. 👍
☀️💗☀️
Namaste & so thankful for Adriene Benji & team!
What an amazing full-body practice that also stretches the calves/hamstrings/ankles! Really enjoyed this one. Many thanks.
I injured my tendon this week and yoga for the feet really helped, but my calves still hurt so I was looking for yoga for calves and Adriene just uploaded this. The magic of Adriene and yoga ❤❤❤ Thank you for being the best yoga teacher.
Gracias Gracias Gracias. Namaste 🙏 ❤❤
Adriene always seems to give me what I need when I need it. My calves and my soul thank you.
Love this one!! Feeling so good now. The wild thing was hard, I couldn’t do it as long as you did. However, then I realised that only a couple of months ago I wouldn’t be able to do it at all! I’m getting stronger! Love it. Thank you!!
It is an honour to practice alongside you, and sweet Benji. Thank you so much Adriene, your yoga practices help me so much, and are one of my favourite parts of the day. I love your new practice space, and how chilled Benji was by all those big pillows. 😊 I'm loving your June 2024 calendar, I can't wait for tomorrows yoga practice, see you there. Namaste. 🙏🧡
Thank you Adriene. You have made a huge difference in my life. Your videos help light to shine through the cracks. You are a part of my healing journey and I want to extend my love and gratitude. You are helping so many of us in so many ways. I am truly thankful.
Thank you for all you have done for me Adrienne. You have helped me in so many ways - mentally, physically, spiritually. Doing yoga with you and the community is something I truly treasure. Thank you so much for this gift. May so many blessings come your way dear friend 🙏
I did this practice in the airport hotel in Delhi, en route to Nepal for a family visit. This was the perfect practice after a 15 hour flight and a decent hotel sleep. Definitely recommend this after air travel. Thanks always!
I haven't missed a day of yoga all year and I have never felt so good and strong in my life. Thank you so much!
Get to know day 4! Love the new room! Very proud of everyone here!
Thank you, Adriene and YWA community🤎🤎🤎
DELIGHT ✨ | July 29, 2024 | I showed up on my mat again, and right now that's enough! I appreciate the stretches in this practice! 🙏
This was exactly what my body needed today. What great timing.
I sprained my ankle pretty bad while climbing a few weeks ago and am slowly getting back to yoga. In just a few weeks of not using it, the calf muscles in my right leg got sooo weak and stiff. This was perfect and so helpful, thank you🩷
Thank you Adriene! Good to see you in 2024! And a new practice is always welcome.
The synchronicity I have with you and Be Ji is pure SERENDIPITY...just two days ago @ now age 55 ...WHAT 😅...cannot wrap my head around it....was lovingly looking at my calves, rubbing them and thinking 🤔 how they have always been a firm , shapely, strong body part , no matter how far I have wondered off the movement path. Said to hubby ...." I wonder when Adriene will give us a practice for calves....mine have lost muscle tone as I age ?" Boom 💥 I get your email today. Your Spirit ☄️ listens intently and never fails us. ❤ Thank you Adriene. So adore you and Benji 🐾 Buddy
Blessed Beloved Beauties! I completed, "Get to Know" Day - 3 on Day - 4 which is my Solar Return! I am so grateful for another year around the sun.🎉 There was a major energy shift after this session. I feel amazing! How does everyone else feel? Best wishes! 🦋❤️🦋
Congrats on the new digs and another great practice! It was indeed sweet and satisfying (and sneaky with the planks)! Loved it.
Thank you 🙏
Wonderful, joyful, relaxing. Thank you Adriene, thank you Yoga with Adriene community. Namaste 🙏🏽
So wonderful! Thank you Adriene & Benji! ❤💖✨
Thank you Adriene for all your help and inspiration. 🤗
Thank you for this video. I have never commented before, but I hadn't realized how much stress and tension my calves have been carrying, probably for years and years, until I tried this practice. I look forward to doing it again!
so thrilled to see this when i woke this mornin', as my calves have been really needing some yoga here on my dairy farm! I AM KIDDING, i don't have any cattle but i am grateful for my loose calves after this praccy!
Coming on Adrienne's channel with exhausted legs, and found this prize! It was awesome! Thank you Adrienne.
I never clicked so quick on a video. I really need this one👌🏾
I'm a runner who has a very calf-dominant running form. My calves are almost always sore or pulsing after a long run or hike, and do sometimes start having spasms when I overexert them. I can already tell this practice is going to be amazing and in my regular rotation.
'It's a great opportunity to let go of anything you've been hanging on to that just may not be providing anything of good use' [16:58 - 17:11] - That's the lesson that we all ought to take away from this practice. Also, a lovely and joyful one. The muscles of the calf are stretched up and are ready for the rest of the day.
Great practice Adriene. 👍 I did struggle quite a lot today, it's hot here in the UK, and my Fibromyalgia is acting up this morning. (It really doesn't like the temperature changes.) So I had to pause the video quite a few times, to breathe, and switch my fan on so, I had air to breathe. But all in all I really enjoyed this practice. It's funny I'm sure at times you can read my mind, because I went to London last week, and did lots of walking. My calves, and other parts of my leg, have been complaining ever since, and today you bring this practice to me. It's so funny when that happens. Thank you so much Adriene, and Benji. You are awesome. See you tomorrow. Namaste. 🙏🧡
Some awesome stretches to get length in those calf muscles, especially good to do after a long walk or a run.
GET TO KNOW🤝 - June 2024
I get to know my internal and bodily wants and needs through my yoga practice.
Loving the new YWA digs😍! What a beautiful space to practice: the outside looks just as zen and relaxing as the inside🤍🌿. Wondering where it’s filmed? Anyways, focusing on the calves today was a fun and new concept: they’ve never received so much love and attention before today! Considering this month’s theme I really took the time today to get to know my physical body and what it asks of me, to feel and respond to every shape and to fully embody ME. It’s so important to be in tune with your body and listen to it, as its in constant communication with us whether we’re hungry, sad, scared, in pain, it’s always asking for a suitable, loving, caring response. Namaste my friends🙏✨💓🤗 xx
You will be missed original YWA space!! Thank you for the memories
Since I've gotten into movement recently, a new passion that has started with watching your videos and fuelled by having started running, I've noticed what feel like new dimensions to my breath? Like when I run, i can hear deeper harmonics of more space that has been unlocked, down through spine. I definitely attribute this to yoga; I do feel as though I sit up a little taller every time I start a session with you, from previous work. Does anyone else relate to this concept of more space to breathe unlocked in the body?
I’ve been experiencing calf cramps while swimming this summer and it just dawned on me that I saw this yoga session you posted a while ago and finally did it this morning. Hopefully it’ll help and it was really a wonderful well rounded session. Thank you so much for sharing your talents.
I went away from Yoga with Adriene for a bit as I had to do no feet yoga for a while. Coming back to your channel reminds me of how good I feel when I practice with you. I love how you make it about body and mind - my soul is happy, thank you 🙂
I have never watched one of these videos so new. Woke up and my calves were killing me so I started this and realized it was published two hours ago!
Adriene & Benji always manage to cheer me up, even on the really dark days 🙏🏼 great practice and ❤the new digs
This calf session is amazing for relaxing and releasing tension in my legs and lower back.
Get To Know, day 4🎉thank you, Adriene, for this practice, it took a little while to get into, but so glad I've done it now and started my day in the best way.💖🧘🏼♀️🙏🏻
Loveeeed this before bed time I wanna be more consistent it's been extremely hard latelyyy❤❤❤
As always a wonderful session with our dear Adrienne 💕. God bless you and have a nice day!🙏
Such a great practice Adriene. Thank you. Your daily practice is amazing and I am reaping the benefits.
To God be the glory 😤 👏 I'm so grateful 🙏 for this practice. 🙏 Thanks very much Adriene you're my favorite morning cup of TEA 🍵. You know what we're carving for. Blessings to Adriene and my yoga family from my home 🏡 🙏 to yours. Love ❤️ always. Namaste 🙏
Ended this practice feeling so joyful. I've been doing 2 days of yoga as part of cross training for a half marathon so it was great to find this on the Delight schedule for today! :-)
Love this! Also - what's up with Benji's foot? (Am a vet so couldn't help notice the little bandage on his right front paw) 🐾👀
Loved doing this to work out a bunch of the knots in my muscles. And my back loved the stretches at rhe beginning as well.
Thank you, once again!!!
What a great blessing you are to all of us. 🤍
Thank You Adriene! Namaste 🙏 See you tomorrow 🥰
Coming in with a second comment!! I work as a cabin crew and my constantly tired legs and calves went from "crying out loud couch." to "Oh dearie, this is the best Yoga mat time I could ever ask for."
Adrienne, you're a blessing to human race! May you be awarded back with every good feeling you put in our lives.
/Thiswas fabulous for my neck and upper back as well as the calves. Another great total body experience. Thank you for your generous guidance Adrien
Thank you Adriene for this great video today! I’ve been doing daily yoga as my New Year Resolution and can feel the difference with my body. I am classical musician, so I spend lots of time practicing and performing and my body needs that extra stretch sometimes. I am also more conscious about my body posture while playing. Maybe you could create a yoga class for classical musicians? Thank you!
Great practice to stretch and strengthen. First really challenging practice I’ve done in terms of it being okay to be in plank for a while, downward dog and do wild thing, after shoulder surgery last August. Namaste xo
Best way to start the workweek!thanks Adriene and crew!
My better half and I are travelling. Walked over 34.000 steps. This was an absolutely godsend. Thank you🥰💝💗👯
It's nice to watch your sessions again, you brought a lot of joy to me during the pandemic, and somehow, the fast pace of the new normal took this space out of me. But here we go again ♥
Great practice Adriene. Congratulations on your new studio. It's nice and bright and peaceful.
You always seem to know what I need in the moment. I have been dancing a lot on raves lately (sober, I don't drink alcohol) and one rave I was at last weekend was at the top of a mountain, so had to walk up there in addition to all the dancing. My calves have been sore the past few days. I am currently on my 5th day of a water fast and this routine was perfect right now. I feel great!
Forgot to say; thank you! 🙏 💜
Pls post a 30 day free yoga camp for focus and concentration😊
This was HARD for me as someone who does your lighter practices, but i still stuck it out even if i had to take breaks
Highly appreciate this video! Although I wish you had a video with a focus on very tight calves! Not all of these poses are available to me 😕
This one hit all the right spots as I’m recovering from my very first ultra (50k). Thank you!!!
Perfect timing for you! 👍
My day 26 of Delight ❤ Needed to stretch my legs today!
I’m hoping this will help my plantar fasciitis. You are a life saver.
Yeyyyyy!
Caught the tail end of this premier as I finished my 1st run this year.
Thank you, Adriene, Benji, and team.
Hello everybody!
My body is grateful for sharing this practice with you. This felt amazing
Just got back from my marathon and this is blissful
This was the first time I've done yoga in years! Thank you, your energy is so inspiring. That view too though! 💚
Love your new yoga space--especially the windows!
16:41Yes!! So excited! My Calves desperately need toning, they'll definitely love this...Many thanks Adriene💖🌷💖🌷💖🌷🙏🏾.
After:: I thoroughly enjoyed this new live practice....my new favourite. My calves thanks you so much Adriene🌺🌷... they feel so well stretched❤❤❤❤.Get to know Day03:06:24✅🌟😃.. How amazing to be here practicing with 1744 people + world wide 🌍 and counting. Enjoy yogi buddies. This is a lovely calves stretch session...even activates the centre core muscles, just wonderful...Namaste🌺💖🧘🏾♀️💜💜🙏🏾
I starten my Yoga Journey since 6 Years with Adriene ❤ and i Need this Daily Yoga practice so much vor my Body and vor my Brain. It is so good to feel my Body getting stronger. Thank you so much Adriene. ❤
She makes me feel home in my body
Lots of love ✨🫶
So lovely. Felt like a strengthening practice! Wild thing is certainly something wild, little shakey but fun ❤ I'm June 2024
I wish you would continue with foundations of yoga since I think there are still poses you didn't include. Help beginners to slowly ease into all the asanas and find the ground from which to build. You gave such great advice and variations in the series. Thanx, you are so my kind of teacher.
Thanks for the love peace and yoga🙏🫶✌️🧘♀️
Wow this was hard!! Really nice practice, it made me sweat 😅. Love the new space, it looks so close to nature and calming! 😍 Thank you so much for a wonderful practice today Adriene! Sending love to everyone in this community ❤❤❤
I am just now getting back into Yoga to work on my fitness and wellbeing overall. The first video I found was from Adriene and oh my gosh I just love her. She knows her stuff and is a pleasure to watch, she makes me laugh and I love her overall vibe. I found a true gem on TH-cam and now I don’t watch anybody else :)
Thanks Adriene and Benji. This was the Yoga practice I needed today! 🙏
Another beautiful practice, thank you! I've never felt so good in downward dog or forward fold. Daily yoga is already working its magic!
First video in your new space, yeiiiii!!! Me emociona hacer esta práctica mañana, GRACIAS!!
