Recovery Drills stretch #7 is which stretch?

• A. Single Leg Over
• B. Groin Stretch
• C. Calf Stretch
• D. Hamstring Stretch

Answer: (C)

Identify which muscle group the seventh stretch in Recovery Drills targets. Stretch number seven is focused on lengthening the calf muscles—the gastrocnemius and, when you adjust knee bend, the soleus along the back of the lower leg. A common way to do it is a heel-down stance against a wall: keep the back leg straight (or slightly bend the knee to hit the soleus) and lean forward so the back heel stays on the ground, feeling a stretch in the lower leg. This clearly distinguishes it from the other options, which target different areas: a Single Leg Over focuses on hip and hamstring/inner-thigh mechanics, a Groin Stretch targets the adductors, and a Hamstring Stretch targets the hamstrings themselves. Since the seventh stretch is the calf stretch, that makes it the correct choice.
