//03Safety notes
01

TAP IMMEDIATELY when feeling calf or knee pressure before pain intensifies.

02

Reverse angle creates more acute compression than standard calf slicers.

03

Muscle damage and compartment syndrome can occur without severe pain warning.

04

Do not straighten leg explosively or roll through - adds dangerous knee torque.

05

Truck position combines multiple threats; recognize calf slicer early and tap first.
