Did you try these exercises? Which one was your favorite? For me #3 and #4 are my go-to's! I hope they help you feel better! 🙏🏼 Also if your pain is a little lower in the Achilles tendon be sure to check out this video for exercises specific to that area: th-cam.com/video/kAzwyy1Ygyo/w-d-xo.html
Just came out with an all-new QUICK version of these exercises! The "3-minute fix" is available to you now at this link: th-cam.com/video/Hmf2xnHC58k/w-d-xo.html Hope it helps!
I exercise everyday, and I always seem to have tight calves. To the point of almost cramping. These stretches are exactly what I was looking for. Almost immediate relief. Now I just have to put them into my daily stretching plan. Thank you
Exactly what I have been looking for. Went straight into stretch exercises and explained on the way through it. No messingabout . THIS IS THE GUY!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Dude thank you so much my left calf was hurting so bad I could barely walk. I've tried the seated calf stretch (i used a strong stretch band), and it helped a lot.
Good stuff and straight to the point! I'm a relatively active guy but have just started adding running to my workout routine. Overcoming calf pain (especially lower half) is a bigger issue than cardio at the moment. Thinking regular stretching might be the missing ingredient!
I’m on summer vacation and did exactly what I swore I wouldn’t-going to the gym knowing how easily sore I get. I’ve been rather consistent working out but after trying some new exercises in my routine, my calves are screaming. I’ve tried using my (Track) coaches advice but the pain was sore to the gentlest touch and the stretch’s weren’t helping. After playing and following this video, I feel like I have brand new calves and can move around the house without a limp! Vacation saved!! Awesome work, immediately subscribed!
Thank you so much sir! It's 3AM in the morning doing this, it's cause discomfort and I can't sleep bcz of pain and started to search and ended up here! Thank you again!
Runners Calf Stretch worked wonders on my sore calves. I had done stretches on my yoga mat and it helped one of my sore calf muscles but not the other. This stretch was done on both my legs and they feel great now 😊😊😊
OMG! Runners calf stretch actaully worked for me!!! This is the second video of yours that has helped me. You are literally a life saver! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! 😭😭😭 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I went to the physio with this problem . They only gave me 1 exercise and I was out of pocket $70! And the pain keeps returning !These stretches are way more thorough and helpful . Thank you SO much for providing these ! The difference I feel is immediate ! I’ve taken up slow jogging with mid foot landing . As a result I have incurred this niggling and painful injury . I’m going to give these a red hot go for the next week and feel confident I can ease myself back into it . 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks Doc! The 2nd stretch with the belt was exactly what I needed. I amped up my intensity for my 5k training and it hurt the next 2 easy runs to the point I could barely stride. I felt instant relief stretching out the calves! Going to rest for atleast one day but it makes me feel a lot better. Thought I was gonna have to shut it down for a while.
Thank you! I was recently in a scooter accident in traffic, took a chunk out of one knee, scraped the other knee and twisted my ankle. There were so many deep bruises but what I was noticing was as I was trying to get back to walking, other muscles were compensating for others because I wasn't walking perfectly straight. I started to get cramps and tightness in the left leg that was most damaged. These will help so much now that I'm almost back to full strength. I appreciate how straightforward this was
I just want to thank you so much I had the worst pain in back of my cat I looked at your video it went right away the first exercise I only had a ball small ball for my granddaughter and I kept rolling it and back up my cat and then I did the one on the wall and all both of them help my I'm back of my leg feels so much better I just want to thank you so much
@@toneandtighten Yes, they have helped a lot, and I will keep doing them. I was doing some aerobics at home (5K walk/jog program) and I later had trouble with my calf, some hamstring and knee issue. I've subscribed to your site. Thanks again!
I love that you don’t mess about chatting too long. Would a percussion massager work instead of the foam roller? I just can’t hold myself in the tripod position.
@toneandtighten I thank the Lord for leading me to your videos. I was experiencing pain and cramping. Did these stretches and they worked wonders. Thank you!!!
Great stretch series. Planning on doing all of them after every workouts. Does it matter what kind of foam roller you use? I have one with elevated parts all over, would that still work or should I get one like yours?
I had a tight calf since Saturday (it's Monday) so I googled loosen tight calf and your video popped up, I followed along and just like that, it's gone Thank you sooooo much
Subbed! I had a posterior tibialis injury earlier this year that seems to be worsened by the fact that I have tight calves, too. These exercises are a lot like what they prescribed me at physical therapy, so I can see now that it's all connected and we should really be stretching daily and losing weight for a whole health approach. All this weight I have gained is putting more tension on the joints along with not stretching, making everything tight. Tendons were bound to pop/tear. Great video, and easy to follow-along👍
It’s really helpful, I did runners calf stretch, I was feeling pain about for whole day and just a minute stretch it loosen my tightness in my calf. Thank you so much for sharing this.
THANK YOUUUUU!!!! Some of these I was already doing, & it felt good, but I either wasn't doing it right or I was just worried it wasn't a good things to do.
I’m 58 now, I’ve been in Martial Arts instructor for 20 years until 2012. And recently have been standing in my occupation, I have been stretching and doing everything that I knew from the past and what I’ve been learning and still, I have extreme pain in my left heel, which I believe to be plant fasciitis. They say it may take months, and I am working out every day, but I feel I’m losing the battle and it’s demoralizing.
Thanks so so much , I could nt bare this calf muscles tightness pain........Its a great relief for me as well as many people that you share these exercises free , Its a good deed , you may receive the merits indeed 🌷🌷🌷🥰
I like how he said maybe you’ve tried a new activity and that tight calves could lead to other areas being affected specifically the Achilles and plantar fasciitis 🤓. All what I’m going through. Thanks pickleball!
Dr. Jared, perfect timing for this vid. My calf injury is going on 2 1/2 months. I wasn't doing anything strenuous prior, and I can't flex it, very little swelling. I've seen my Dr but she said it's too early to diagnose the problem. I just woke up with this pain in my knee one morning in June and I was limping. Now my other knee hurts. I can hardly stand for more than 10 minutes, and I have my 1st physical therapy session Tuesday. Baker Cyst, muscle pull idk. Any ideas?
Sorry to hear about your pain, Eric. And impossible to diagnose over TH-cam comments... could be any number of things. You're on the right track with pursuing local help where your PT can run you through tests and evaluations to determine your most-appropriate plan of care. Sorry I can't be of more help, but you're doing the right things for it. Good luck!
WOW that soleus stretch really took the pain right out of my calves. explains why i wasn’t getting the cramp out with my regular stair stretch, cuz the problem was much further down
Hey Dr Jared I love watching your videos they help so much. I was wondering if you can do a video on spondylothesis? Also, a lot of videos talk about doing bridges to help but is there an alternative if it irritates the lower back? Please and thank you
Thank you so much, Josue Muro! I've actually got a video on spondylolisthesis right here: th-cam.com/video/Fv3lKPAy53c/w-d-xo.html I hope these ideas help you, and thanks for commenting!
Ha I have both Achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis. I wish informational stuff is out there because I'm 36 and no doctor no nobody has ever spoken about this until the internet became popular and by that nobody looked it up unless a problem
Duuuude, my calves were so tight today that I couldn’t stand up straight. Thanks for that runners stretch, I can finally stand 😅. But that roller was a great warmup of the stretches.
Has anyone added that also doing an isometric (pressing into ball of foot) in some of these positions will mobilize old lactic acid, stress chemicals stored in the fascia? Release of the fascia is probably what you need, if basic muscle stretches do not seem to be effective. Esp. Over time, like weeks or months. Still looking for the perfect video about this, but this video is close!
Just found your channel, you're my new best friend! I don't know how my calf muscles are so tight, goodness knows it's not activity level haha (whole other item to tackle) but, plantar fasciitis it so off the chart walking is unbearable. Between this and the plantar fasciitis video, I can expand stretches to heal it , you are awesome!!!! Thank you so very much!
cant wait to do this everyday for me after work also do you have wrist exercises as i twisted my wrist love your channel sooooooooooooooo much love your exercises sooooooooooooooooo much
Great vid! I would just caution anyone currently dealing with plantar fasciitis etc. to go easy with these stretches or try a more passive stretch to begin with.
Agreed. If already at plantar fasciitis mode, fir a day or two. use nubby rollers on soles of feet several times a day, and on calves a little, to help mobilize a little, before jumping right to these.
Also, everyone may wsnt to consider supplements for potassium, as well. Most athletes know sbout magnesium and sodium, but that really needs to be 3 way balance with potassium. Liquid supplements are best in my opinion for potassium. Pink Himalayan or celtic grey for salt, and magnesium chloride (lotion , mag oil topical ) for ease and comfort. Warm Epsom salt soak can help, with all the stretches, as well.
Hey doctor i really love your videos, i am suffering from disc bulge L5 and S1 and sciatica pain. i keep on having triggers in piriformos muscle, kindly help me i am so worried
I’ve had a painful 2+ months of plantar fasciitis and absolute no calf pain. I thought I’d watched all the You Tube vids on the topic, but I decided to try your foam roller stretch (1:00), and boy that was another level of pain that I didn’t even know existed. That one workout took my PF pain from a 7 to a 2 in one day!!! Needless to say I’m going to keep that up! Thank you so much!
When I got PF I got it so bad in both feet I could barely walk I tried everything.......so much stretching ect ect.....my calves felt like rocks.....3 years later.....I can actually feel the individual muscles again, but they still tight.....I even use a calf stretch slant board......it almost feels like my tendons ect shortened.
Hopefully this helps me out. Recently broke my leg and haven't been able to feel the calf stretch very much in physical therapy and the alternative is my therapist stretching the calf for me which is painful enough to make me cry.
Hello Dr., How many times a day should I do this stretches? I played soccer for the first time after 12 years of not playing and my calf got real tight… I felt the real effects the day after the game
Did you try these exercises? Which one was your favorite? For me #3 and #4 are my go-to's! I hope they help you feel better! 🙏🏼 Also if your pain is a little lower in the Achilles tendon be sure to check out this video for exercises specific to that area: th-cam.com/video/kAzwyy1Ygyo/w-d-xo.html
How long does it take before your tight calves start to loosen up a little

@rudysennhenn yeah I get the same but I think its cus I have just recovered from a pulled calf
I think this is exactly what I need. I screamed when I stacked my right leg on my left at 2:26, but my legs feel better. Thank you!!

Dude thank you so much my left calf was hurting so bad I could barely walk. I've tried the seated calf stretch (i used a strong stretch band), and it helped a lot.
Good stuff and straight to the point! I'm a relatively active guy but have just started adding running to my workout routine. Overcoming calf pain (especially lower half) is a bigger issue than cardio at the moment. Thinking regular stretching might be the missing ingredient!
Definitely worth a try!
keep us updated pls
Runnning is horrible for your knees and joints. Elliptical is much better for the same effect

Happy to help!

Many thanks for the exercises, helped me to relieve pain I had for a few days now, and quite quickly! Good stuff :)

Great stretch series. Planning on doing all of them after every workouts. Does it matter what kind of foam roller you use? I have one with elevated parts all over, would that still work or should I get one like yours?
Will do these exercises daily now. So true tightness comes as triples 😅

Thanks a lot! Just what I need after getting painful calves from hiking. Wonder if you can make a video on correct movements during hiking?

Just went skiing for the first time in years, and ohoho my calves need this
Duuuude, my calves were so tight today that I couldn’t stand up straight. Thanks for that runners stretch, I can finally stand 😅. But that roller was a great warmup of the stretches.

Thank you so much for all your videos 👌can you pls do one video especially for upper arm pain
Man this helped me alot. Never had this pain before. I think it was from dancing lol
Perfect video. Thought I hurt my knee, but actually, it's the back of the knee down. (From doing taekwondo sparring )
Great vid!
I would just caution anyone currently dealing with plantar fasciitis etc. to go easy with these stretches or try a more passive stretch to begin with.
Agreed. If already at plantar fasciitis mode, fir a day or two. use nubby rollers on soles of feet several times a day, and on calves a little, to help mobilize a little, before jumping right to these.
I have a tight calf muscle from when my left ankle swelled up and exercise 3 helped tons it fells a lot better now, thanks.
Wonderful! You are very welcome!
Also, everyone may wsnt to consider supplements for potassium, as well. Most athletes know sbout magnesium and sodium, but that really needs to be 3 way balance with potassium. Liquid supplements are best in my opinion for potassium. Pink Himalayan or celtic grey for salt, and magnesium chloride (lotion , mag oil topical ) for ease and comfort. Warm Epsom salt soak can help, with all the stretches, as well.
Hey doctor i really love your videos, i am suffering from disc bulge L5 and S1 and sciatica pain. i keep on having triggers in piriformos muscle, kindly help me i am so worried
I’ve had a painful 2+ months of plantar fasciitis and absolute no calf pain. I thought I’d watched all the You Tube vids on the topic, but I decided to try your foam roller stretch (1:00), and boy that was another level of pain that I didn’t even know existed. That one workout took my PF pain from a 7 to a 2 in one day!!! Needless to say I’m going to keep that up! Thank you so much!
You are welcome! So glad you are already feeling a bit better!
Thank you so much for sharing I have sever pain in my muscles
You are so welcome! I hope you find these stretches effective.
When I got PF I got it so bad in both feet I could barely walk
I tried everything.......so much stretching ect ect.....my calves felt like rocks.....3 years later.....I can actually feel the individual muscles again, but they still tight.....I even use a calf stretch slant board......it almost feels like my tendons ect shortened.
Thank you sir. You're awesome.
You are very welcome!

Thank you for this 😁😁
No problem 😊
Hello Dr., How many times a day should I do this stretches? I played soccer for the first time after 12 years of not playing and my calf got real tight… I felt the real effects the day after the game
Thank you!
I had an acl surgery and the seated calf stretch was the best 💯
Helped me a lot
Really helpful, thank you.
This is so helpful I was feeling so much pain til I started watching this one and another one. (I have to run 20 miles for soccer)
Glad it helped!
VERY NICE STRETCHES!
Thank you so much, Γιώργος Κουτσιούλης! I hope these things help you, and thanks for commenting!
its actually amazing, that non of this worked at all (for me) and last two stretches make it actually worse.
Any advice for foam rolling the calves when you don't have great upper body strength? I'm having trouble supporting my body on just my hands.
jumpstyled a little too hard now i need to follow a stretch routine
I hope you enjoy this one and find it effective!
@@toneandtighten it actually worked really well :D its not hurting everytime i walk now, yupiee!
Waited months to get into the podiatrist for mortons neuroma and he literally just told me to stretch. So I'm trying to fix the tight calf issue. Ugh.
Thanks PT 🔥🔥
You bet!
amazing video! sir does this exercises work for ‘chronic compartment syndrome’
