Stretching, Compression Socks Can Help Tight Calf Muscles

July 29, 2012 By Complete Runner

how to loosen tight calf muscles

If you are a runner, you will experience tight calf muscles sometime in your lifetime.

When you run or work out you can experience mico-tears in your calves, sometimes to the extreme point when it is difficult to run or finish your workout.  This will cause your muscles to spasm and block off the blood flow in your calves, causing them to tighten and cramp up.

Not fun.

So, how do you loosen up tight calves?  There is a hint in the title of this article.

Check out this month’s Ask the Expert column on I Run Flint to learn more about How to Loosen Up Tight Calves.
