Toe-elevated Calf Raises

This workout for men to build stronger legs wraps up with calf raises. Elevating your toes during calf raises maximizes the range of motion, enhancing time under tension for your calf muscles. This increased engagement is a potent strategy for promoting hypertrophy, boosting muscle size, and strengthening calf muscles effectively.

Stand on the balls of your feet on a raised surface, ensuring your heels hang off. Rise onto your toes as high as possible, contracting your calf muscles at the top, then lower your heels below the level of your toes. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, focusing on controlled movements and peak contractions at the top.
