All these big hulking guys in the gym with tiny calves

I train legs twice a week and isolate calves both times yet they are still twigs. Unless you are hitting them fucking daily or doing lots of intense hiking, they are hard to grow.

Not all of us are recovering fatshits.

Try seated calf raises. It tends to hit the front of calf and can help bulk them up.

as someone with tiny calves it pisses me off too. I think it's a combination of genetics and poor training though not one or the other. Mine have finally started to grow a little after training them 3+ days a week with both high reps and low

I can't think of even one black guy with ripped looking calves now that you mention it.

wrinkling his shirt

I think you're looking at ankles which are genetic. Calves can sometimes be very high up and therefore look tiny. Still strong though.

Charging his fists with energy to hit harder.

I’ve heard calves are one of the only muscles that typically can’t undergo hypetrophy.

Them Kenyan genetics. Also, I doubt your upperbody is big.

Why

The only people you see even doing leg workouts usually have big calves. Think about it -- have you ever seen someone with calves like working legs out with any weight over what you would get with bodyweight?

I do heavy leg workouts and my calves don't grow. It's genetics.

Are you getting stronger?

Calve insertions are genetic like everything else. Unless you get fatter they arent getting bigger

>roiding for this

Sure.

Not roiding though.

I've seen people calf raise with 315+ on their back
the only way to actually grow your calves is ti walk uphill all the time, be fat, or roid and even that last one is iffy

Actually, the only way to grow your calves is to actually work them out properly and not be a skelefag.

yes that's why option number 2 was to be fat

>t. angry skelefag

Just be a fatass for the biggest part of your life before deciding to lose your weight and become Jow Forums so that you won't die a lonely death, maybe get a qt gf and a few friends because you made the mistake of alienating everyone you knew from school and you've been an isolated autist throughout university, but you won't because besides working and the gym you spend every day on this fucking website looking for the rare dopamine spike from some meme you haven't seen yet or already forgotten about while the realization is dawning on you that a millenia old genetic lineage is going to end with you because you thought playing vidya was a better time than learning how to socialize with strangers, especially of the opposite gender, but at least you won't have to feel bad about your calves.

who the fuck would want huge calves? do you want to look like jason genova?

I was fat and I do work them out. They don't grow.

not angry?? literally being fat literally gives you big calves?
do you say that mathematicians doing math are angry at people who don't do math? lmao

cope

Squat 3 PL, dead 4, leg press 10pl for 3x10. Leg day is favorite day.

Horrible insertion and thin ankes. No calves at all :(

Just gonna throw this out there:

The best and I mean absolute best way to make your calves bigger is to actively use them when you walk.

Arnold did calf raises a lot, and he also talked about doing mini calf raises casually as you walk around during the day. With an open, long stride raise your body on your calves as you walk around during the day. You'll see a noticeable difference in just a month or two.

What does your cat look like?

Holy shit hahahahahaha I'm just picturing a bunch of beta cucks walking around doing this because of your advice

I’m a dyel Lanklet with huge calves thanks to matching up Afghan mountainsides.

yo wtf

What is the average size?
mine are 16 inches at their widest part ofcourse

try doing sprints, its preddy gud for calves, also jump rope

don't raise yourself up but push off harder from the ground each step, you'll feel it in your calves

have you tried injecting roids directly into your calves?

You'll look silly at first until you get the hang of it.

If you want to be completely minimal about the aesthetic impact it'll have on your walk, just focus on walking on your forefoot and bearing as little weight on your heels as you can.

I've never been fat (slightly overweight when younger) and my calves are pretty nice, at least others think so. One time some guy riding a bike specifically pointed them out to his gf while they were driving. I don't know exactly why they grew so shapely but it's either my long walks (3/4h) that I took while working or Muay Thai (1 year).

No, I won't post pics.
