The large muscle under the knees is the gastrocnemius, and a large muscle on both side and lower calf is called the soleus muscles. These two are connected to heel via Achilles tendons. Calf pain can be caused in several ways. Sometimes the pain is not severe enough to require the appointment of a doctor (usually this happens in the soleus muscle), but the discomfort does affect your performance. Stretching the calf muscles might decrease muscle tension.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Exercises that load the soleus directly<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The soleus muscle is the main plantar flexor of the ankle. It originates from the proximal fibula and the soleal line of the tibia. It connects to the gastrocnemius and calcaneal tendons. When it is stretched, the muscle stores energy, which it releases when it is contracted. The soleus also helps with balance and stability while standing on one foot. It is a slow-twitch muscle, but it has a high endurance capacity and is able to endure a sustained workload.<\/p>\n<p>Although the soleus is weaker than the gastrocnemius, it still plays a major role in plantar flexion. It helps the gastrocnemius, another important leg muscle, by providing stability during plantar flexion. This muscle is vital to the stability of the ankle, and a weak soleus will affect the muscles further up the body. To strengthen the soleus, perform exercises that involve bending the knees to 80 degrees.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Soleus Stretch - Ask Doctor Jo\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RCjNN6JfSmE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The seated calf raise is one of the most effective soleus exercises. This simple exercise can be done at home or at the office. The key is to perform this exercise with a sturdy book under your feet. While your heels should be on the book, you should lift them up and lower them down again. Repeat this exercise for at least 25 times. The repetitions can be increased by adding a weighted dumbbell on your thighs.<\/p>\n<p>When performing exercises, warm-up and cool-down are equally important. You should warm up for at least five to ten minutes before starting a workout. Walking and biking are excellent warm-up options. After the workout, you should stretch your calf muscles. You may also want to try an exercise that uses a wall. This is called a wall stretch and requires the use of the core while bending the front knee.<\/p>\n<p>Muscle strains occur when the muscle fibers are damaged during an activity. Soleus strains usually have a gradual onset of pain. The cause is not completely understood, but it is believed that the muscle fibers in the soleus have a limited sensory innervation, which can lead to injury.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Active dynamic stretches for soleus<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Active dynamic stretches for soleus are an important part of lower limb strength training. Moreover, they are also an effective way to increase ankle flexibility. These exercises improve the range of motion of the ankle and reduce lower leg cramping. This will help the athletes perform better in sports and will also decrease injuries.<\/p>\n<p>A study of active dynamic stretches for soleus found that it improved performance during curved and straight running. Compared to the controls, additional soleus muscle stretching improved performance during curved running and a straight sprinting task. Researchers believe that this difference is related to the knee joint position. In a straight running step, the knee joint is fully extended while in a curved running step, the knee joint is flexed.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most effective active dynamic stretches for soleus is a variation of the monk walk. This movement targets the soleus and Achilles tendon. This movement is more effective than freezing, which creates a static soleus stretch. The key is to perform a monk walk dorsiflexion, which is pressing the back heel back until you feel the calf flex.<\/p>\n<p>Active dynamic stretches for soleus involve a variety of movements, including ankle flexions associated with walking. The triceps surae is also involved in these movements, and its output to the spinal cord becomes more pronounced during galloping. These dynamic stretches are beneficial for the soleus tendon and can be practiced at home to increase flexibility and strength.<\/p>\n<p>The soleus muscle is the largest calf muscle in the body. It inserts through the Achilles tendon on the heel and stretches when the lower leg is bent at the knee. The soleus helps pump blood into the lower leg. However, an overly tight or weak soleus can restrict blood flow to the foot and ankle. The muscle also lacks the sprinting power of the outer calf, consisting of slow-twitch fibers.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Effects of soleus stretching on ankle flexibility<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Soleus stretching is an effective method for improving ankle flexibility. It has been shown to increase the range of motion (RoM) of the ankle. It also improves functional performance and dynamic balance. A randomized controlled study of 14 male soccer players was conducted to examine the effects of soleus stretching on ankle flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>Ankle flexibility is a key part of a person&#8217;s athletic performance. Proper stretching of the soleus can reduce cramps in the lower leg and increase ankle range of motion. This increase in flexibility is associated with increased sport performance and decreased risk of injury. This study demonstrates the benefits of soleus stretching for reducing injury and improving sports performance.<\/p>\n<p>Results showed that soleus stretching improved ankle flexibility in both groups. However, soleus muscle flexibility decreased more in players with higher BMI. However, in the multivariable analysis, age and BMI were not significant predictors of change in flexibility. The presence of anterior blockage or dorsal tightness was not associated with the change in soleus muscle flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers used a foot-position template to standardize the testing positions. The time and position of the stretching was also recorded. The standardized foot position helped to measure the ankle flexibility in both groups. During testing, ankle dorsiflexion was measured using a two-way analysis of variance, evaluating the effect of stretching time and position on ankle flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>The soleus muscle helps maintain an upright posture and helps walk or run without straining the ankle joint. It also assists in preventing the foot from falling forward when the foot is elevated. The soleus muscle is located in the same area as the gastrocnemius muscle, which tends to shorten in the case of elevated heels.<\/p>\n<p>The results of the study show that dynamic stretching has significant benefits for straight and curved running. In addition, the soleus muscle stretched a curved running step with a greater degree than a straight sprint. This difference may be related to the difference in knee joint position. In a straight sprint, the knee joint is in a fully extended position, while in a curved running step, it is in a more flexed position.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Knee position-specific stretches for soleus<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Soleus stretches are a key component of a comprehensive lower leg stretching regimen. They improve range of motion and reduce cramping in the lower leg. This can contribute to improved performance and reduced risk of injury. Many people who participate in sports such as soccer also benefit from the added flexibility and strength of their soleus.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to assisting with rapid ankle plantarflexion, the soleus strengthens the Achilles tendon. This tendon is the largest muscle in the body and is capable of supporting up to 10 times your own weight. Knee position-specific stretches for soleus help strengthen this tendon to support the body&#8217;s weight during running and other activities. They are also helpful for reducing trigger points, which are caused by the binding of collagen between the layers of muscle.<\/p>\n<p>Besides kneeling on one leg, seated positions are also useful to stretch the soleus. In this position, you should bend your right knee to a lower level and then lift the toes up toward the head. You should hold this position for 20 to 30 seconds and repeat three times.<\/p>\n<p>The soleus is located in the posterior compartment of the leg, just below the gastrocnemius muscle. The muscle originates from the head of the fibula and the posterior border of the tibia. The fibers of the soleus tendon attach to the calcaneus bone. Knee position-specific stretches for soleus will help relieve pain in the calf and prevent injury.<\/p>\n<p>Knee position-specific stretches for soleuses are an essential part of the rehabilitation process for any athlete recovering from a soleus injury. They will increase the strength and endurance of the soleus muscle. These exercises should be performed for 10 to 20 repetitions, but should be discontinued if the pain increases. The entire rehab process can take up to eight weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>Build heat to protect muscles<\/h2>\n<p>A muscle stretched without proper warming can be traumatizing. For the safety of your joints warm your muscles by doing small movements. Sit or lay down in a comfortable place, with the legs extended. You need to move your toes a few times. Do circles by turning your ankles clockwise. Start your hydration session with a 5 minute walk. Walk outside. Maybe march on the spot.<\/p>\n<h2>Try facing the dog down<\/h2>\n<p>Down-facing dog prolongs the soleus and genitals and increases muscle strength and flexibility for the hamstring. Start with your hands under your shoulders and your knee below the hipbones. Keep the toes underneath and lift the hip up and forward. Work on making triangle shapes for yourself. Keep your heels close. Try evenly distributing sway on your thigh bones and allow your knee to lift and move. Put your head and neck together and look at your belly button. To protect from shoulder strain, put the shoulders together. Continue letting it go for 3 or 5 seconds.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.surferseo.art\/afb8c63c-557a-4936-a0a7-f02be675fe32.jpeg\" alt=\"Downward Dog - Downward Facing Dog Yoga Pose - YouTube\" \/><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Downward Dog - Downward Facing Dog Yoga Pose\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/j97SSGsnCAQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>How to stretch the Soleus?<\/h2>\n<p>Make sure to get some sensation on your calf when stretching.
