inactive lifestyle alone isn't enough to give you clots in your calf unless you have.a medical condition that predisposes you to making clots. daily leaving activities are enough to make your blood circulate. I wouldn't worry about a clot unless you are over 40, overweight and sits in front of TV for more than 4 hours without even moving to go to the bathroom.
