The leg consists of triceps, a group of three muscles located at the back of the leg. The gastrocnemius muscle is located behind and above the calf. This muscle group consists of two parts, an inner head or an inner head, and an outer or lateral head. These muscles are located in the other triceps gastrocnemius muscle called soleus muscle. In order to strengthen the upper medial calf muscle, the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle, you have to stretch your ankles, toes outward, heels inward.
