Does running make your calves tight no matter how much you stretch or what else you do? Here's why you get sore, tight calves after running and how to solve it for good.

Even the best stretches for calves don’t address why your calves hurt from running. In fact, once you start feeling tight calves while running, all the classic tight calves running stretches do is maybe give you some temporary calf pain relief.

You’re still not addressing the root cause, though, which is why stretching doesn’t really fix calves tight from running.

The question you should be asking is how to prevent your calves from tightening while running.

In this video I’ll show you the two main running form mistakes that cause calf pain while running and calf pain after running. I’ll also help you understand how your calf muscles work so you can identify the exact source of your calf pain or even calf strain and finally learn how to fix calf pain from running for good.

No calf stretch will stop calf pain in any lasting way. Changing your running form in key ways is what finally gets to the source of the problem.
