  Back Hook Spin

  Posted by SusieQ on September 8, 2009 at 3:58 am

  Hi There,

  So I’m a total beginner, and was doing a back hook spin. It was looking really good and I got it, but my calf muscle from the leg that hooks hurts like crazy. Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong?

  Thanks

  Might you be trying to squeeze the pole between your hamstring and your calf? That might be why your calf is sore. Try to relax that knee-hold just a little bit and see if that’s better. And of course, just like Roxy said, stretch!
