Conseils techniques
Throughout the exercise, maintain a straight body posture. Avoid leaning forward or backward, as this can strain your back and reduce the focus on your calves.
Perform the exercise with slow and controlled movements. Rapid or jerky movements can lead to injury and won't effectively target your calf muscles. Focus on the muscle contraction and extension during the raise and lower.
Ensure you are using a full range of motion. Lower your heels below the level of the step to stretch your calf muscles, then raise your body by pushing up onto the balls of your feet as high as you can. Avoid partial reps as they won't fully engage your calf muscles.
