dumbass calves grow!!!!
ad
Even on gear and eating all day long my calves just wont grow like the thighs. I've never had the genetic monster calves like pacquiao and I want that. I do all kinds of reps intensity duration sets etc and the gains are good after the workouts then the next day it goes back to normal. What should I do? Who doesn't want that apple shape in there

The calf muscle is extremely stubborn for must of us. In fact most pro body builders also lack in the calf department. The key is a full range of motion and varied sets brother. Dont push calf workouts to the back of your list while in the gym. Instead, come out hard with lots of intensity to focus on them and stretching them out between sets. Good look
telloladeThanks man. I think I should do a day strictly for the young cows
lol sorry brother i may have been "autocorrected" calves*
i used to play soccer, and we did drills where we were expected to be moving on the balls of our feet for a very long time. it would hurt really bad. now they are so big i dont even isolate them with weight training. all i need is squats basically.
telloladeWell I played soccer for 3 years with all the same drills as u. Guess what brotha? My shit would deflate after a day. So for people like me it's gonna take something major

I remember one time i did some skipping on an incline surface. Cant remember how long i went for but i do remember every inch of my calves were sore for days. All i was trying to do was a bit of cardio! Could be something in that?
I do toe walking on treadmill(inclined max) for 15 minutes then move to 2 diffrent excercises with weights. This worked WONDERS for me. Feels like getting shot by 50 cal in calves afterwards xD
Some people have success with DC style training for calves. Slow 5 second eccentric followed by an excruciating stretch for 15, power up and repeat for 12-15 reps.
I think DC training also incorporates walking on the toes on a inclined treadmill.
To the OP. You're calves propel you around day in and day out, you are going to seriously not like the way it feels to make them grow.
work them 6 days week light,med.hev. rest and do over. enject test-p in calfs they will grow reps 15-25range
My calves suck too. To get them to grow is superblast. Ten sets of 20. Standing....seated and donkies. Thighs almost big as most waists and calves.....seen better calves in a bucket o chicken!
do what i do, never wear shorts lol
