"The Calf Curve™ is the best calf raise block out there for full range of motion calf exercises."


True, calf blocks aren't complicated... DIYing takes a few bucks and about an hour (if that). But, some designs offer a better experience and more calf activation than others.

After trying 2x4s, 45 lb plates, square-style blocks, wedges & ramps, they all had issues; mostly limited range of motion and foot slippage during the stretch. We decided to DIY our own block using 2 pieces of wood, a 4" PVC pipe, and grip tape. The round design felt a lot better... until the PVC cracked during a heavy set. So we drew up what is now our Calf Curve™, tested and refined the prototype, drove a GMC AT4 truck across it to confirm it won't fail, filed the design patent, and are now proud to release it!

Key points:

✅ The 4.5" height will allow your calves to stretch into deep deficit for full range of motion calf raises.
✅ The 3.8" diameter curved design supports your foot arches while your calves are in a deficit stretch.
✅ The grip wrapped around it will keep your feet in their starting position throughout your sets.
✅ The curve also lets your toes 'angle downward' at the top of each rep for peak calf flexion.
✅ 24" in length to support various foot stances in your calf programming.
✅ Has cutouts for easy pick up.

Specs:

🔥 Amazing design with black matte powder coating (if we do say so ourselves)
✅ 12 lbs of 3/16" plate steel
✅ Small storage footprint (24"L x 7"W x 4.5"H)
✅ 2000+ lbs capacity (see truck photo)
✅ Patent pending design
🤠 Made top-to-bottom in Texas, USA

Our apologies in advance when your previous calf block collects dust after you experience the difference. 🤭

** If your floor is wood or vinyl, etc, we highly recommend acquiring anti-slip foot pads before using the Calf Curve™. Please contact us for product recommendations.

The Perfect Calf Accessory. Period.

This accessory perfects what all other calf blocks get wrong, and that's maximum contact with your feet. Rectangular calf blocks force you to be on just the corner in the most crucial part of the movement, which is that deep stretch. The Calf Curve provides enough surface area through the entire range of the exercise. This allows you to get that deep stretch, AND power through the movement without fear of slipping, or having to readjust midway through your set. Don't be afraid to purchase this. I saw that they were out of stock so I emailed them to see when they were going to have more ready and they got back to me right away with a date. All fitness enthusiast need to know about this!

So appreciate your feedback, Alex. I couldn't have explained it better. Considering all foot sizes out there, we had to design a Goldilox-diameter to achieve exactly that, the most contact possible. Too little causes discomfort under heavy loads, too much causes slippage. One thing we've been trying lately (due to the sticking power of the curve) is pausing during plantarflexion (toes pointed downward at the top of the rep). Even with straight leg raises, it lights the soleus on fire, and still no slippage under 495 lbs. Highly recommended! Thanks again 💪

Calf Torture in a good way

I first saw the Calf Curve on the Hybrid Resistance channel. Since I'm always looking for better ways to stretch and work my calves I ordered one.
Shipping was fast, and the packaging was excellent.
It's has a super aggressive non slip covering. Which is good as you can get some very low angles with it. A less aggressive covering would let you sip, no chance of that with the Calf Curve. You are on as stable a platform as you could want.
During the exercise-Fast or slow- there is no shifting of the Calf Curve or slippage with your feet.
At first use, the Curve feels strange. But once you get used to it, you find a range of motion like nothing else.
Seriously, if you want to work on your calfs, this is the tool.

Amazing review, Jimi, really appreciate you taking the time! Also, you won't slip at the top of the rep either, the grip and curve allows extreme plantarflexion (pointing the toes down) pausing, which fires the soleus even during straight leg calf raises. If you haven't tried this already we highly recommend it. Thanks again!

Best of the best

Sturdy and very confortable to use. You don´t have to reposition your feet. There is no feeling you are loosing grip. Very good also for calf stretches to treat foot issues derived of tight calves. Use it with thin barefoot shoes to work on your foot muscles and fascia. Step on it barefoot to have a really good arch massage. Fantastic!

Best Calf training platform by far

The angle and shape allow for a focus on the calf muscle rather than causing the feet muscles to be potentially fatigued much faster than on a flat platform, as well as the movement somehow just feels like it activates the calf better and more consistent throughout the movement.

Solid build and comfortable. Its pricey but has a unique design compared to whats on the market.

Thanks, Joseph! I hear you on price. If it was made overseas, the price would definitely be lower to reach more market. But we're sticking with US manufacturing. Appreciate your support!

Excellent purchase

Excellent purchase even from Europe away. Shape of the block is truly ideal for calf engagement. Thing to keep in mind is that best to combine with u-cups/smith machine or belt squat. With barbell or dbs in hand can be really unstable with heavy loads. As I don't have a power rack I do also unilateral work, loading with dip belt and bands and with one hand lean against the wall. Even so calfs are on fire!

Awesome, Pasi, thank you for your feedback! Really appreciate your support 🔥🔥

Very comfortable barefoot and works calves well

I got this, because I work out barefoot due to squats and deadlifts. I wanted something curved as straight corners were not comfortable. This was perfect! Good price, rigid and easy to store.

Thanks for your feedback, Mark! Glad you found the Curve. If you ever need to clean dry skin off the grip tape, belt sander cleaning blocks or grip tape erasers for skateboards work great.
