Hi everyone,

i get cramps in my calfs and toes when pointing toes down in the stretching series - is there a recommendation on what to do about it? Any additional stretches?

Thank you, Jochen

There's nothing to worry about with foot cramps, and it generally doesn't take long for the foot muscles to adapt so that the foot no longer cramps.

Coach Sommer

As Cole mentioned this is nothing to be overly concerned about.  The cramps are simply a sign of a relatively weak arch and will pass as your foot continues to strengthen and develop more mobility.

Yours in Fitness,

Already getting better - didn´t expect it to get better that fast! Thank you!
