The Barbell Seated Calf Raise is a strength movement that targets your calves. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Barbell Seated Calf Raise
- Sit on a bench with the balls of your feet on an elevated surface and the barbell resting across your lower thighs.
- Lower your heels as far as your range of motion allows for a full stretch.
- Press up onto the balls of your feet and pause at peak contraction.
- Move through the full range slowly — avoid bouncing at the bottom.
