calvesIf you are a beginner and aiming for calves like Roger Federer or Cristiano Ronaldo, then the Ankle Circles should be a delight for you. Though the exercise looks simple, it's potent enough to shape those flabby calves into some well chiseled lower-limbs.

How to do it:

Step 1: Position yourself standing with a well-supported sturdy object like a squat rack.

Step 2: Now, lift your right leg (just 2 inches above the ground would suffice) and make an imaginary circle with the big toe leading. One circle stands for one repetition. Do it slowly and keep your breathing as normal as possible.

Step 3: Once done with the right leg, repeat the exercise with the left one.

Regular exercising can tone your calves to an extent you can scarcely imagine.
