2. Towel Calf Stretch
This stretch for the outside of the calf is performed seated and only requires a regular bath towel to do properly, according to OrthoInfo.
How to do it: Sit on the floor, keep your body upright, and hold the ends of a towel in each hand. Bend your left leg, placing the left foot on the floor. Then extend your right leg, placing your right ankle on the floor.
Place the middle of the towel over the top of your right foot while turning it in slightly to emphasize the outside of the calf. Gently pull on the towel to move your right foot back until there is a feeling that the right, outside calf is being stretched.
Stay in the stretched position for 15 to 30 seconds and then repeat the stretch for the other foot. If performing multiple sets, take up to a one-minute rest before moving on to the opposite calf.
