A calf raise is an exercise for the calf muscle where someone raises their heel off the ground, to stretch the calf, and lowers it again.
Not just the FFA, but you can be in 4-H too (well, either or, not both) to raise a show calf.
Gastrocnemius
The bones that are used during a calf raise is the fibula and tibia. It is more of a muscular movement than a movement of the bones.

Every muscle in the back of the calf (with the exception of the popliteus) helps to raise you up on your tip toes.
The Gastrocnemius (calf muscle) is the primary mover. The Synergist (or assistor) muscle is the Soleus.
calf raises (aka) toe raises are when you stand on the base of your foot and simply raise up as high as you can. Calf raises are good for increasing vertical, muscle strength and speed. some other ways to do calf raises are to stand onto a raised platform such as a step and simply raise up and hold for 3 to 5 seconds.
