The things runners actually ask us
Everything below is about this board specifically — what it's for, how to use it, and what to do if it isn't right for you.
A step edge leaves your heel hanging in mid-air and your ankle at whatever angle the concrete happens to be. The board holds the whole foot flat at a set angle, so the stretch lands where you want it and you can repeat it exactly.
Lift the platform and move the support to one of the four positions. It takes a couple of seconds, no tools.
Start at 30° and hold it comfortably before going further. If you're shaking or clenching your toes to stay on, the angle is too steep for now.
It's solid wood with a platform wide enough for both feet, and it doesn't flex or tip under full weight. One person at a time.
After a run rather than before — a static calf stretch on cold muscles does less than it does on warm ones. A couple of minutes a few times a week is plenty.
