Why do a lot of people neglect their calves? Monster quads look gross.

The focus on half-range barbell squats. Doesn't train the calves but some people don't realize it. Specific Calf work is needed if no full range (ATG) motion is performed.

I like monster quads.

Giant asses without giant quads and Hamstrings look retarded.

Being fat and losing most the weight with cardio gave me some good calves.

big calves are a sign of inefficient movement

Being fat isn't genetic anon

>>41494604
people with big calves naturally are usually fat or walk/run like retards so their calves have to work extra hard to do the same work.

calves have always been the one thing ive always wanted to have. mine look like a fucking starving childs. yet i lift I lift and I lift rip them 2x a week with 3 sets of standing bb, seated, and leg press till fail.

I used to think I had beautiful calves until I started seriously lifting. They look so dissapointing in the mirror, but they're fucking hard to grow. I think its better to drop calf workouts altogether and hope they grow from cardio. I can better use that time to do OHP or some other useful shit

You can always do calves in between sets of whatever other exercise

Can confirm, giant calves ex fatty who runs like a retard.
>>
>>41494838
dont neglect them, work them every single day. They are nearly impossible to overtrain, experiment with it bro. I train my calves every day since its the only way they will grow.

>>41494777
Try HIIT 4-5 times a week with minimalist shoes. Not the retarded looking glove-like ones. Just minimal, hard, sole. Fix gait. Thank me later.
>>
>>41493707
They are a resilient as all hell muscle and it takes a shitton of TUT for them to grow.

Ever wonder why ex fatties have huge calves? It because they spent half thier goddam life repping 300 lb calf raises every time they took a step.

>You need to be fat to have big calves

Literally no point in isolating your calves unless you're a bodybuilder. Compounds work them enough.
