![]() My calves are pretty subborn, I always had troubles bringing them up, and I've tried everything heavy weight, light weight, high reps, low reps, supersets, every angle/machine imaginable....
Now I haven't trained them in several weeks, but went onto the stairmill for 20 minutes after every workout. Maybe I'm wrong, but I got the impression that my calves have grown and got a lil more cuts as well. Is training calves maybe counterproductive when u got I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.I need to read the rules post.ty calf-genetics, and more cardio might do the job? Think of all the cyclists with great calves, who've never seen a weight-room in their lives... |

![]() Dante of Doggcrapp fame has a calf protocol that is just HIGH incline walking on a treadmill when someone does cardio. Could just be a variation on his idea, too.

Again, genetics. If you got the genetics to grow cows with mere cycling, it'll happen. |

![]() Figure I just throw this out here...I wasn't blessed with calves.
While I think it's true genetics play somewhat of a factor, I believe training form is the lacking factor here for most people wanting to improve the size of the calves. I've followed Lyle's training calves pretty closely and I can certainly see my calves growing. Nothing fast and insane, but slow n steady wins the race here. Prior to the last couple years, I was just another gymer who had no idea what he/she was doing training calves. |

![]() Anyway, still have black man calves, but they're a whole lot better than they used to be. Keys to this routine is holding the bottom stretch and going heavy on standing calves IMO.
