Stretching Aide
I tore my Achilles on cobblestones in 2015, and I didn't feel like I was walking normally again until 2018. That, combined with knee problems all my life, makes stretching my leg tendons a priority.This block has the advantage of being small, relatively light, and covered in fabric. The fabric helps the block stay stable on carpeted or rug-covered floors, and helps stocking-covered feet stay in place while stretching. The fabric also attracts pet hair and detritus, but there are clothes brushes and tape to solve that.With a sixty-degree angle, you get a good stretch whether sitting or standing - but you need a door frame or other support to use this while standing. Very helpful if just a floor stretch doesn't give you enough flexibility.

got the stretch I need
Having an angry achilles tendon, I was hoping the “Ultimate Calf Stretching Solution by SEWD” would stretch the calf and help resolve this issue.There are no suggested exercises or documentation for this item. So it is off to your favorite “web doctor” unless you have already been to physical therapy and know what to do.I am able to use the steep side, stand up and get the stretch I need.

Lightweight but angle is just too much
I was using a slant board at the physical therapy office before I had spine surgery. I used the slant board to do wall push ups while stretching my hamstrings and calves.This product looked promising as being lightweight and easy to use at home in my home exercises.This item is lightweight and very sturdy. It is very dense foam that does not have any give at all.The 2 sides have different angles. Both angles are just too much for my purposes. I am able to do the wall push ups but my calves are just stretched too much. This would be good for calf stretches while sitting. My shoes also slip off of this. It is not sticky or tacky at all to prevent sliding. The bottom also does not have any non-slip properties so it slips on my carpet and tile.I feel the price is very high for a piece of foam.This does not work for my purposes. I will use it for a foot rest while at my computer.

Perfect for tight calves
i'm always looking for easy tools to improve my home gym and this fits the bill. I love that it is so lightweight; my other slant board at home is very heavy so it stays in one spot and I don't move it. I feel like I can set this up anywhere and move it easily when I need to. Right now I'm using it in my office and it doesn't take up much space but allows me to keep my ankles and calves stretched and mobile all the time. it's black so it fades into the background. The stretch you can achieve is excellent and multiple foot positions can be achieved to make it even more functional. It's a little pricey but overall a very good fitness device.

Great For Stretching The Calves
This calf stretching solution is great for stretching calf muscles. Using it before working out helps relieve tension in the calves, which will further benefit the hamstrings. For me, stretching out the calves helps release tension in the legs, allowing better flexibility and motion.The item looks like a footrest, but instead of being soft, it feels like very hard, dense foam. It is soft to the touch but will not dent inward when weight is put on it.The foot stretcher has two different sides, one side with a steeper angle than the other side. Depending on how intense I want to stretch out my calves, I'll use the lower inclined one for the beginning and then switch over to the steeper side.The foot stretcher is 16 inches long, 9 inches wide, and 6 inches high, providing plenty of space to put both my feet.Overall, the foot stretcher works very well. As for the price, the current price is way too high, but with the applied coupon, it cuts the price in half, making it more fair.

Solid solution for stretching calf and working ankles
Very solid solution for stretching calf. The foam is firm and doesn't deform. It feels high quality. As noted by another reviewer, it doesn't have an anti-slip bottom. This could be an issue if using it on hard-wood. I use it on carpet/foam mat. Normally, I have it placed against a wall or putting pressure directly on the item. It is a good alternative to my larger, bulkier metal and wood slant boards. The advantage they they have is the ability to specify a specific angle for the stretch. Overall, I would recommend this as an alternative to other devices if the price makes sense.

Nice Calf Stretcher
I ordered this calf stretcher, as I recently had ACL surgery. I’ve been using a wooden calf stretcher at physical therapy and I wanted one for at home. I came across this one and wanted to give it a try and I’m glad that I did! It’s lightweight and easy to use. It’s a foam-like material and easy to move, as needed. It really helps to stretch out my tight calves, which is exactly what I wanted and needed when I’m at home. I’d recommend for anyone needing a good, at-home calf stretch.

Firm and provides a good stretch, can slide across floor
Firm, lightweight foam that does not deform. Provides a good stretch for calves and Achilles. I like to use this as a part of my recovery routine after exercising to help stretch my legs and keep my calves and feet from cramping. The only thing I am not happy with is that this can slide across the floor when using it. I try to make sure I am always keeping one foot on the floor while using so that I am can maintain my balance if it does slide.
