I really thought this was clickbait at first, but was desperate to fix my calf strain and turns out you guys are the real deal. Great advice and info. Very helpful. Subscribed!
Emil Ishak bob and Brad are all that! I go to them before going to a doc. They have the heart of a teacher and open to share their knowledge. Unheard of!
Except that in another one of their calf pain videos they warn you not to stretch, especially if you suspect a torn muscle.
The disclaimer here is that your particular situation needs to be assessed by a professional before starting any treatment.
That makes me so hopeful thanks for the feedback
They did mention that this stretching is to be done AFTER the pain has gone away. In the other video they also say to stop stretching (or walking fast, or whatever you are doing that causes the pain) wait a day or two and try again.
My calf strain hurts so bad love these guys ❤
I just want you guys to know how grateful I am for you guys. I am 22yr old female and I have had an upper calf tear for 1 1/2 years (from Sept 2021-June 2023). I felt pain every single day and tried EVERYTHING to take the pain away and try to heal it! I tried icing it every single day for almost a year, gaining several ice burns because I over iced, and was desperate to do whatever I could to heal. Then finally I went to a doctor where I found out it was a calf tear, and I was given about 20 exercises to do every single day that I believe re-aggravated my calf over and over again. The doctor also prescribed me to take ibuprofen for pain and inflammation, but never told me how many to take or how often to take it. I didn’t want to gain a dependency on ibuprofen, so I just dealt with the pain. Never told how often to ice or what that was even for. Then about 6 months ago, I discovered a calf sleeve designed to keep the muscle warm. I noticed that when my muscle was warm, I didn’t feel any pain. Since I had little to no pain, I thought it was actually healing, so I was wearing the calf sleeve almost 24/7. Then a family member made the suggestion that I should at least take it off when I’m sleeping because that much compression wouldn’t allow it to heal. And that was true because it had hurt worse than it ever has because blood flow was so restricted. Then I went back to icing, but instead used an ice bucket and thought I was seeing tons of improvement. Then I almost gave up and just thought this was hopeless and that I’d have a torn calf forever. I’m a spiritual person and decided I’d ask God for help, so I asked Him to guide me to anyone or anything that could help me heal, and I got an impression to look up my injury on TH-cam to see what others have done to heal their own calf injuries. After a few of those videos and gaining lots of knowledge, I came across these guys and it was like all the pieces came together! I had lots of the right ideas, but not the correct execution. And they also gave me other ideas I haven’t tried before! So thank you so much, you’ve made my fitness dreams possible again!!!❤🎉😊
I too am having upper calf pain below the knee area for just under a year and a half. I've always thought it was my knee but realize it's the calf muscle. I too tried EVERYTHING. Became very depressed wondering why I didn't heal. What did you try here? When I try to massage the sore area it seems to get sorer. I have a sleeve by incrediwesr but it's very hard for me to get it off. Bending is an easy way to strain it. I imagine it must be a lot of scar tissue after all this time. My movement is very limited and am strained because of the constant tightness and pain. So did you practice the exercises here and use the massager? Exercises every day or every other day? I'd love to hear your success story. Thanks
Did you ever get healed? Sad to hear you've been bothered so long
3 days later I feel like I'm at 50%! Thank you.
I just tried this on a sore calf that always gets very sore after long runs and it released the tension in about 2 minutes. It went from hard to walk to like nothing ever happened. Thanks you two!
👍👍👍
Thanks , 4 Weeks from Torn calf to running 5k Daily again, had the repeat tear twice but massaging like crazy and always moving and stretching as much as possible fixed it.,
You don't understand how much your videos have helped me and probably millions more. This is legit physio session. You have saved me hundreds of dollars through your informational videos. Experience , knowledgeable, credible and free. Keep doing what you guys do! Definitely most famous physiotherapist on the internet. 😤💯❗
The 29 people who thumbed down dont have calves to stretch
Best PT page on TH-cam. 🙏🏽👍🏽
Thanks so much men. I got this exact problem and the massaging has paid dividends to get me back running. God bless ye both
What a great video! Thanks to you two, I’m feeling better already! Had to be helped out of the gym today by a pal of mine. I’m thinking it’s a heat cramp, but it could be a tear. Only time will tell.
These fellas have changed my life!!! For the better, just to be clear!! Subscribed!
I just had this injury happen and was looking for ways to heal and get back out there. Out of everything I found online this made the most sense and is working!!! I am glad I found your video! Thank you!
Great one! Got great help here from the guys and fun to watch. Calf strain is scary when you first get it and don’t know what to do about it. Thanks!
Both of you are Inspiration to many people
thanks so much....YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!! I am training hard for a marathon and fell on the stairs....the calf was healing slowly until I watched your videos!!!!!!!!!! I really appreciate your sharing of your very informed knowledge.:)
Hallo Sirs , I am from India. I am big fan of your work and your sense of humour. I was suffering from lower back pain. Your videos helped me to heal my problem.I wish that you grow by leap and bound. Thanks
Thanks for posting this. The cross fiber message has been a big help!
I’m a runner and did a grade 2 calf strain a day ago and this video is so helpful. Thank you so much. Subscribing now!
Thanks so much for this video. I’m in lockdown with no access to doctor or physio. Your video has helped me to rehab myself 💙💙💙
Hey guys, I wanted to say thank you for the video, it was very helpful. I recently strained my calf muscle during a run, and it has been years since I had to visit the physical therapist for almost the same injury. I could not remember the process I went through years ago, so I watched your video it was a very good refresher of what I need to do to help the healing process.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your videos - they have been incredibly helpful
i seriously doubt that you haven't heard this before, but you guys are the best physical therapists on the internet, thanks, guys.
,you people are doing great job very helpful thank you God bless you
Assalamu Alaykum or Namaste???
I'd have to say, you guys are awesome. Watching your videos couple get over a pinched nerve in my shoulder, tendonitis, and now it's praying in my calf muscle.
Eh? What?
Thank you very much guys for sharing these tips , really appreaciate ...
Thank u guys for knowledge u share with us.
Awesome dudes. A tone of knowledge that they share with us. Very helpful.
You guys are the best! Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for sharing
I got re-rupture of left calf muscle after a 4 weeks of rest and second football match, not the first. After I saw this video and starting a massage, as you recommended, it immediately got 50% better even more! Wow, guys thanks for this highly educational and funny video!!!!
I just wanted to say thank you both for the sciatica videos you've made. They have helped me so much. I was able to get my pain out of my leg and isolated to my gluteal region. I had a hard time walking since I had so much nerve pain in my leg but it is finally after 3 weeks of consistent exercises getting better. I have recently started strength training also with weights and I'm hoping with these measures that I ca prevent future flares. The pain was horrible. Again thanks so much!
Which exercises did you do?
@@user-px2xu6qr9h I had to research the video as it’s been so long. Watch the one titled “the three common cures for sciatica.” The one where they lay on their stomach and push up the top half of your body, that helped my sciatica SO much.
Thanks for these videos you guys the best
I love you guys.. had so many muscle, nerve, and disc injuries, and y’all are amazing. Thanks
Thank you so much! I either sprained or tore my calf yesterday and couldn’t put any weight on my leg or flex my foot. After following your instructions I am back to walking almost normal today!
You are welcome Elizabeth :) Great news!
Justo curious, did it take a year to get back to that?
Did it take a year to get better? Or 1 day?
@@2_572 just tore mine and went to the hospital and it’s been 4 days and I’m taking steps now but still not fully back. I think within a week or 2 I’ll be back to walking
@@JaggGFX oh wow😣get well soon, and speedy recovery to you. Did they tell you to drink alot of water?
You guys are a gem…..thanks
That was a great video. Informative with a sense of humor based in knowledge and friendship. Reminded me of Click and Clack, the car-talk guys on NPR. I’ll look for more of your videos. Thanks!
Thank you!!!! Great stuff!
You guys are awesome! Thanks :)
Thanks guys
LOVE your videos. This is great. I just started getting this. I don't know why.
You guys saved my day!
Great advice that really worked!
Back to the tennis court very soon, but not too soon!
Thanks guys😂 Y’all really are the best that’s what’s funny!
I’ve been using your methods for a few months and things are definitely looking up. Especially the massage. That seems to be the most important step outside of strengthening
Your welcome my nigga
@@hairynipps2599 😂😂😂
Awesome. Thanks!!
Wow. Did the massage & the stretching & calf pain is gone! Need to keep working on the stretching & strengthening
This guys are awesome they really helped me
Injured mine in Muay Thai sparring and I was dreading the recovery times I was seeing if about 6-8 weeks. I’ve watched several of your videos and followed along closely and I’m seeing pretty fast recovery on this. Thanks for the info.
Hello fellow practioner. I just tore my calf muscle today kicking in practice. The doctor told me it will take about four weeks to heal. How was your experience using these exercises? How long did it take you to recover?
@@drummerdanny1269 it was about that for me to be at like 90%. Haven’t had issues since but I make sure I get there a but early and do some stretching (to include calf raises) .
@@1stGenRex I see. I will start doing calf raises this week. Thanks for the reply. Take care.
@@drummerdanny1269 the biggest part that helped was massage after about a week. It will suuuck but it’ll help break up stiffness in the area.
@@1stGenRex I will do that by the end of the week. I will let the area rest for a few days.
Torn mine on Monday.. still back and blue with the bruising...I'll be keeping all this in mind for next week when it's less painful.
Great advice.. Thank you.
You’re very welcome. Happy to help !
You can also use a small ball (such as a tennis ball) to massage rather than fingers. ;-)
Freeze a lacrosse ball as well
Thanks guys great video I tore my calf muscle this Thursday so will try this
Great Vid great advice and Great Fun Guys As Usual 😃
God bless you guys
My pain is at the top where you said it doesn't happen as much. The anatomy is called THE MEDIAL HEAD GASTROCNEMIUS. the tendon at the top of the inner calf muscle. Behind and below the knee. But like you said.. it did get better and then reinjured.
saaame it hurts soo bad, not ur regular sore muscle at all i should have NEVER did those Standing calf raise for so loong and running in the same day! like what was i thinking??
SlimeBy Sharah shift to fore foot running technique it helps a lot
@@rajgrg9773 okay ill check it out thnx!
Did you guys recover ?
Right, how'd it go? On day 5, desperate to get back to running, but not sure how to treat.
You guys are good thank you so much😋
What do you think of the Graston technique for calf strains/pulls?
This past December I tore both calf muscles at the same time. It was so painful and I couldn’t walk for two days. Literally. Walking was impossible for two days and for the next 3-4 days I could only walk on my tippy toes. Wish I would’ve come across this video then!! This time my injury isn’t as bad, but still doesn’t feel very good. Massaging for just a few minutes already has the muscles feeling better!
I go out country dancing every weekend. No health insurance and I MUST heal!! Thank you for this great video. One thing I add is tumeric mixed with Colgate white toothpaste for the muscle rub. Works like icy hot. Gonna tape tonight and see how much I can dance tonight. Very grateful!!
Thank you. This helped me. Rubberband calves and cable hamstrings are such a pain for trying to sprint. Boom and it blows out. Been this way since I was a teenager. And man - the cross-grain massage and foam roller - kill!! But they work. Much better.
Great video. There are some good tips here. Gave me a little hope. Especially massage it I was icing ,heating it and resting Thank you
Thank you.
yes this was hopeful
1min in and i already love bob and brad uncle.
Today is day 1 on my torn right calf inner muscle. I was playing basketball and it felt like someone threw a baseball at my calf muscle and I felt it pop. Today was mostly ice and ibuprofen.
EXACTLY how mine felt just today, like someone threw something at it , thats crazy
Thanks!
Thank you! Sending positive vibes your way.
Bob
please talk about The Thoracic Multifidi Trigger Points
this is so important for those who can't find solution even on internet!
Huh… this might be exactly what I needed. I’ve got a calf that gets a recurring charley horse so badly that im limping after and it feels sore for weeks after. I think I strained it the first time and this explains the cycle. Thanks! The cross fiber rub definitely found some sore spots that feel warm and vaguely numb now so I think we’re onto something!
Looking forward to trying your methods. I have to say, my CAT got very interested when that Booster was turned on!
Thanks
This is exactly what I have. Thank you very much. Saved me a million bucks by not going to see a PT. 😁
I have a calf sprain it sucks mine is higher up where most people don’t get them but it’s been two weeks finally getting better and maybe a week or so I’ll be back to easy road work build it back up !!
Just tore my calf muscle today and found your video. So very helpful! Thank you!
Might have done it too.. Did you have to go to the doctor?
didn't work for me tho
I can’t walk normally can you? I have to walk slow and with a limp can’t do a full stride
@@nextlevelbjj3083 how do you feel now? After 2 weeks?
@@nextlevelbjj3083 are you better? If so how long did it take to heal be able to walk normal
The massager was a little pricy for me. I instead took a ball peen hammer, wrapped it in a towel and used it to get deep up in the muscle. Just gripped it by the head and worked it back and forth and in and out across the muscle. Felt really good too. great video btw!
Thank u
🤣You two guys are funny but you’re very helpful for all of us that are in need yes y’all have help me to and I got to try out these new ones that you’re showing God bless you oh and I love the massage machine just got a find out where to get one
Yay thanks!!!
Foam rollers are wonderful, highly recommend those that vibrate. I have one and use it every single day for pain in my legs and hips.
U gais r very cool n fascinating n right at the point it’s always pleasure to watch u two for benefit of my calf muscles recommend me a machine instead of Excersise thanks n keep it up the tempo.
Oh yea I got it, text book right in the middle of the calf.
Soooo painful.
I have used your videos for lower back pain and now this. One thing that really helps in the short term for me is slathering the sore area in Veterinary Absorbine. I figure if it is good enough for a horse of course of course it is good enough for me. Just be very careful to clean your hands afterword becsaue you will not like it if you touch someplace sensitive with this stuff. And I just ordered the massager.
The Bobbest the Bradiest!!!
No dvt for me. This is it! Thanks guys
My daughter who is an experienced & highly qualified physio in the UK advised me that use of Mechanical Massagers can cause Deep Vein Thrombosis & should not be used. The best way to avoid scar tissue is to gently load ANY strained/pulled muscle until discomfort is felt. Also, unless in severe pain neither to apply ice nor to take ibuprofen as the inflammation is part of the healing process. Finally, having recovered it is important to daily keep up the loading of the muscle that was pulled to minimise a repeat injury.
Thx u!!!!!!
I am 37 years old. Two days a go, I heard/felt a popping sound in my left leg, specifically in the back of my left knee pit, as I was walking to the train station from work. I had some immediate discomfort but actually no pain. My body immediately adjusted and began to shift it's weight to my right leg. So I have been hobbling around for the last two days to and from work. I find that when climbing and descending stairs my range of motion is still normal but my regular walk has changed into a slight limp on the left side. I think it might be plantaris tendon rupture. There are not many videos anywhere about this kind of a tear but the one video I found on youtube did say that it is a vestigial muscle and that eventually it will go away and my normal walking gait will return. Since you are both Physical therapists can you verify this and also will your 20 minute massage work in the same way?
you guys are great - thank you M
I used my finger knuckles and that helped a lot
Where are these fellows from in the US? They’re fantastic! The “Calves” and the “Calve-Nots”! Lol!
Based on the background, there’s both Vikings and Packers merch, I’d say Minnesota! (We’ve got a huge split between packer and Viking fans haha) could be Wisconsin too, close to the MN border!
im gonna really crank it up here...lol priceless.....these guys are great
How many days after massaging a minor calf strain can you get back to low impact sports like golf,bowling,etc?
I'm def gonna try this it's Tuesday and it's been hard to walk since Friday evening as we did calf/ankle workouts in my pilates class. I use to have super tight calf muscles due (and a previous Planter fasciitis) trying to strengthen ans I couldn't walk or straighten my legs. Stretching didn't help luckily my mom had a hand held massager - so painful but it's slightly getting better. And def ibuprofen Monday helped me get through the day but didn't last haha. Guess I'll havw to keep massaging
Ty
This looks great! I don't have the buddah straps, where do I get them, and how soon can I safely play tennis? I can't get into Dr. for a week or so and I heard loud pop when I injured calf but am able to walk with limp and no bruising.
You decided that famous😆😆nice video
You said not often but calf pain is on the top pain. Then please let me know what caused the problem and what should I do to stop the pain and heal it and make it strong. Thank you
So interesting because when I studied Cyriaxis Cross frictional massage in chiropractic school in the extremity orthopedic class we were told that Cyriax initially recommending eight minutes for each session. Some of his so-called disciples said well that’s hard for a person to do that so just do three minutes per session. Now you mention 20 minutes per session. I took the class in about 1987. I suppose you would need a crew of tag team of therapist to comply with that. Smile😆
How about a video for acl tears??
great job allah be with you :-)
Hi
I strained my calf a week ago today AND I'm still swelling Is that normal. Also I started yo walk today about 800 hundred to 900 STEPS a day. Am I doing the right thing by walking so soon. Really like yours vídeo Is very informative, thank you

Very helpful. My partner is more willing to listen to you, for sure, than to me!
