Get your legs totally calf-inated with this muscle-building exercise.
- You
- Your kid
- The stroller
Strap your kid safely into his stroller.
Stand on the edge of a curb or on the flat ground with your feet about shoulder-width apart, knees bent, abdominals tight and shoulder blades pulled back and down.
With hands lightly resting on the stroller handle, rise up onto your toes squeezing your calves.
Keep knees slightly bent as you return to your start position.
Soon, you'll start to notice some nice definition in your calves … which might mean you'll need to find an excuse to put on some heels to show them off.
- Do two sets of 15, three times per week.
- After two weeks, increase to two sets of 20.
- Increase by five every two weeks.
