calves are 90% genetics, 10% hard work

my brother has never lifted a day in his life

he is 6'1 and fat as fuck (like 140kg), his calves are literally like IFBB tier. Despite his extremely high bodyfat percentage, his calves are both extremely lean, muscular and vascular and about 19 inches.

Meanwhile I've done thousands of sets of calf raises, progressively overloaded into the hundreds of pounds. Tried all the different styles of calf raises and my fucking calves have BARELY developed.

They developed some muscularity and separation, but it's nothing like any other body-part on me that's grown from lifting.

calves are a different type of muscle fiber that does not respond well to weight training Anon.
They grow bigger and stronger through constant movements that involve the muscle (running, sprinting, calf raises, climbing, hiking).
a runner is doing practically hundreds of calf raises from step off for hours weekly.
As a runner I have bigger calves, hamstrings, glutes than most lifters I know.
My first time ever doing weighted calf raises I did 3pl8 and within a two week period achieved 4pl8.

you don't want to leave humanity behind?

Yes it would be the same, but taking the 2 serves of whey is a lot faster and less work (no preparing/cooking the chicken)


Here's what I do.

1. Everyday = 48g protein from why + 12 from the skim milk I use with it = 60g protein total.

2. Get the rest of my protein (100-120g) from food.

That way I end up with 160-180g protein everyday, with minimal effort.

Been lifting for 4 years and I'm one of the most aesthetic manlets on this website, so it works.

Fuck broski; You're doing god's work. What I wouldnt give to have had a solid male role model to teach me life skills as a teen when my dad was to busy working in a foreign country. Everyone's situation's a bitch, but seriously anon, keep it up! :)

>>37464007
Good deal man. I really wish a had a decent father in my life. I feel like I would have been on track sooner and would have avoided a lot of mistakes. You're a good guy.

>low-calorie wraps (50 cal Spinach/Carb ones)
>frozen vegetables like broccoli, green beans
>strawberries, frozen or fresh (nice low carb high fiber snack)
>frozen grapes (higher calorie content than strawberries but still a decent snack since they're frozen and take longer to eat)
>boneless skinless chicken thighs
>tomato sauce

Can't tell you how much I go through those wraps. Very useful in making something and throwing it in a wrap and eating it.

it's your curse for not cutting, sacrifice some strength for aesthetics man

Your just not lean.

>being this retarded

Nice. Fitbit has me at 53. Do you cardio?

>>37463587
54

>>37463587

If your heart beats less than 60 times a minute, it is slower than normal. A slow heart rate can be normal and healthy. Or it could be a sign of a problem with the heart's electrical system . For some people, a slow heart rate does not cause any problems.

If you don't do a lot of cardio you should probably get it checked out.
