Lower leg strength balance

Nate K · 11-16-2006, 02:28 PM

What can I do for lower leg strength besides calf work. I'm not posative if this is true but I think the calf work causes an imbalance in the leg and contributes to leg problems.

C'mon P you know, like Popeye's forearms but with the calfs.

I don't know, I was thinking in terms of calf vs. tibialis anterior and surrounding near by tissue around there. Where shin splints occur.

Not that mine are that big or out of porportion but I have always trained them.

so, if you want more balance, work your anterior tibiallis.
