    Heel Stretch issues

    I have been working for the longest time to achieve my left heel stretch. The problem is if I lay on the floor, I can pull it no problem, but when I do it standing, I can't. Why may this be?

    Please help tore the pad on my heel and I have a comp. coming up!

    Sometimes I get them when I am in the pool a long time--from your feet touching the rough bottom of the pool and all the chlorine. You may try some really big band-aids on the heel of your foot. That may add some cushion. Good luck and I will sned you pain tolerance fairies your way!!!

    Beam-Does it matter what leg you do the heel stretch on?

    Coaches Vaulting heel drive...

    Ask any gymnast or coach 'when does heel drive start on vault?' and the majority would say from the springboard to the vault table. In other words, once the feet contact the springboard the heels are driven upwards over the center of mass to facilitate rotation. I would challenge this answer in...
