Takahashi Shoten Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Shimizu Yoshinari) released “Longevity: Calves” (Author: Utashima Daisuke) at bookstores and online stores nationwide on Thursday, October 23, 2025. “Feeling tired easily,” “My legs swell easily,” “Waking up in the middle of the night with leg cramps”—the key to resolving these problems may lie in your calves. Many seemingly unrelated ailments, such as cramps, sensitivity to cold, swelling, high blood pressure, and fractures caused by falls, all have a common root cause: weakened calf function. This book introduces the latest calf health technique, the “leg swing.” It’s a very simple exercise that takes just a few minutes a day and can be done anytime, anywhere. The “Leg Swing” is scientifically proven to improve blood circulation from the feet to the entire body, enhance the “quality” of muscles and nerves, and even strengthen bones. Let’s aim to extend our healthy lifespan with the “Leg Swing”! The Latest and Easy Health Method: “Foot Swing” Simply rubbing or massaging your calves yourself may have a temporary effect, but it won’t bring about any fundamental improvement. The “leg swing” exercise introduced in this book, which involves lifting your heels, dropping your heels, and lifting your toes, may seem simple at first glance, but it has great, scientifically-backed benefits for stimulating muscles, bones, and blood vessels, transforming the body from the inside out. It can be practiced while standing, sitting, or lying down.
