2. Try Calf Raises
Stand on your toes, hold for a second, then lower back down. Do 20 reps a few times a day.
3. Elevate Your Legs
At the end of the day, lie down and prop your legs up. It helps reverse blood flow and gives your veins a break.
4. Stay Hydrated
Water keeps your blood flowing more smoothly, supporting vein health.
5. Compression Socks (If Needed)
Great for travel or if you’re on your feet all day. They gently squeeze your legs to improve circulation.
Your heart can’t do everything alone. Your legs—especially your calves—are powerful partners in your health. By keeping them active, you’re not just moving more—you’re helping your whole body function better.
So the next time you’re walking, stretching, or dancing, just remember: you’re exercising your second heart too. ❤️🦵
