Q: What is a calf pull?
A: A pulled calf muscle, or a calf muscle strain, occurs when the muscles in your calf — the soleus and gastrocnemius — get overstretched. The calf muscles are in your lower leg behind your shin bone and extend from the base of your thigh down to your heel. They help you flex and bend your foot, ankle and knee.
Q: What is a calf Jack?
A: “A calf jack is the best tool for holding the calf at the point it is in the birth process. I use it to hold (and not lose ground). A calf jack can be detrimental if you just continue to crank,” Miesner says. He adds that research shows a calf jack can exert 2,000 lbs. of pull, while two men typically exert about 400 lbs.
