Eccentric calf raises (or ‘heel raises’) are still currently the most effective exercise to start strengthening the achilles tendon and calf for a tendonitis, tendinopathy, calf muscle tears or post-operative achilles tendon repair.

I have a had archilles rupture almost 5,5 weeks ago. How can I train my calf properly and which excercises can I do in the meanwhile? Is spinning on a Bike with low resistance a good excercise?

I have a lump on my Achilles from a previous injury. How can I get rid of it or will it ever go away. I’ve tried massage techniques and it has gotten smaller.

D G says:

Hi. I was poisoned by the antibiotic Levaquin which wasted my calf muscles and ankle tendons. I am 10 months out and am walking. My Achilles is still tight, but I would like to rebuild the atrophied calf muscles. When I make a muscle with my calves, about one-third of the calf is just hanging loose. What can I do to start rebuilding the calf without injuring the Achilles. I am afraid of rupture, as these antibiotics(fluoroquinolones) can cause a rupture months after taking them. Thanks.
