What Exercises Can You do With the Calf Raise Block? 

Standing calf raise

Enhance your calf muscles with this classic exercise. Position yourself with a barbell or Smith machine, bar across your shoulders, and the balls of your feet firmly on the calf raise platform, heels overhanging. Alternatively, perform the exercise holding dumbbells by your sides. Raise your heels, flexing your calves and extending your ankles as high as possible, keeping your knees steady. Slowly lower back and repeat for effective muscle engagement.

Seated calf raise

Ideal for targeted muscle building, sit with a barbell across your lower thighs or dumbbells resting on each thigh. Place your feet on the platform, similar to the standing position, and press up onto your toes, fully engaging your calf muscles. Lower back slowly and repeat the movement.

Donkey calf raise

For this exercise, lean forward with weight on your lower back for added resistance. Position your feet on the calf raise platform and perform the movement similar to a standing calf raise, emphasising a full stretch and contraction in the calf muscles.

    I’ve been on the hunt for a well built calf raise bar. I previously had a homemade version that worked well but didn’t look sleek, polished, and solidly made. This fit the bill perfectly. I looked at a couple other brands, both out of the UK, but the price and super fast shipping really set this one apart. It works just as expected and is fit and finished to the nines. Thanks!
