Hey Raynor, im seeing pretty good progress and im happy with how everythings going BUT, my calfes are really lacking compaired to my upper leg/upper body.
i've been training them for like a month now 3x's a week (mon,wed,fri) but wen i train them i do like 4x8-15 calf raises and thats it (reason i do this is i jst cant seem to work them hard enough once a week. + they dnt really ever get sore.) . I've seen some good growth in them since doing that but i jst wanna kno ur opininon on what would b the best way to add as much mass to my calfs as possible. i'll try basically ne thing from working them out 2x's a day, 2x a week, even everyday jst lmk wat u think would b best.
Thanks.
yo oak try this...calf needs different exercises every 2 weeks or so
one of the best burning is using smith machine, place a wooden block under go on your toes and do 10 reps.. rest only 15 seconds do 10 reps again untill you did 10 sets
believe me that is a killer burn for me
and for your side calf muscles (outside) it is better for heavy with low rep (standing calf raise, etc)
your soleus (inside) is better in high rep range (calf seated machine)
