When i point my toes to the ground which muscle contracts?

When you point your toes to the ground, the primary muscle that contracts is the gastrocnemius, which is part of the calf muscles. The soleus muscle, located underneath the gastrocnemius, also plays a significant role in this movement. Together, these muscles facilitate plantarflexion of the ankle, allowing your toes to point downward.
