Gastrocnemius Stretch

• Take a big step backwards with the leg you wish to stretch. Keep the knee straight.
• You may want to place your hands flat against a wall for support.
• Make sure the foot of the back leg is pointing directly forward as opposed to turned outwards.
• Press the heel towards the floor and hold. If this stretch is too intense, move the back leg a little closer to the front leg.
