Tight calves/calf cramps anyone?
✅
I used to get tight calves often as a goalie – which is not fun to deal with when pucks are flying at your head!
🏒
Because of where they are, calf issues can lead to knee, ankle and foot problems as well.
Here is a great strategy for helping you to deal with tight calves and getting rid of any knots you may have.
Enjoy! 😈

P.S. To avoid my name becoming a new curse word, please:
1️⃣ apply light pressure in the beginning (i.e. just your leg)
2️⃣ start with a foam roller first (not a lacrosse ball)
3️⃣ avoid this strategy if your calf cramp is accompanied by redness or swelling (this could be a sign of something more serious – talk to your MD)
