6. Mountain Climbers:

How to do:

• Start in a push up position and make sure your abs are tight and contracted.
• Start running your legs in and out. Repeat as fast as you can for one minute.
• Mountain climbers are an all-over leg strengthener, and the explosive jumping movement strengthens your calves.

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
• Start by doing a regular squat, then engage your core and jump up explosively.
• When you land, lower your body back into the squat position to complete one rep. Land as quietly as possible, which requires control.
• Do two to three sets of 10 reps.

8. Jump Rope:

How to do:

• Jumping rope is a great calf exercise, plus it is a great fat burner, cheap, and can be performed just about anywhere.
• No rope? Just jump up and down on the balls of your feet for 30 seconds. Rest and repeat for 3 sets.
• Return to the starting position and repeat for required repetitions.
