Technik-Tipps
Make sure to use a full range of motion during this exercise. This means lowering your heels as far as comfortable to get a good stretch in the calves, and then raising them as high as possible to engage and work the muscles fully. Avoid the common mistake of doing short, quick movements without fully extending or retracting the calf muscles.
Avoid bouncing or using momentum to lift the weight. The movement should be slow and controlled, focusing on the muscle contraction and not on the weights being lifted. This not only enhances the effectiveness of the exercise but also reduces the risk of injury.
