Instructions
Anterior Tibialis-SMR
Begin seated on the ground with your legs bent and your feet on the floor.
Using a Muscle Roller or a rolling pin, apply pressure to the muscles on the outside of your shins. Work from just below the knee to above the ankle, pausing at points of tension for 10-30 seconds. Repeat on the other leg.
Peroneals Stretch
In a seated position, loop a belt, rope, or band around one foot. This will be your starting position.
With the leg extended and the heel off of the ground, pull on the belt so that the foot is inverted, with the inside of the foot being pulled towards you. Hold for 10-20 seconds, and then switch sides.
Verdict
Both exercises target the calves. Anterior Tibialis-SMR is a intermediate exercise using other, while Peroneals Stretch is intermediate and uses other.
