It varies a little bit, but I hit them as hard as possible, they're cramping on the final few reps of the final set
and the final set is probably close to 100 reps
Same applies to standing calf raises but I'd say 70% of what I do is seated.
I do a good set of 20 reps, not a typical "warm up", I count it as a working set because each rep hurts
then I up the weight by 20kg and do a set of 15
then I up the weight by 20kg and do a set of 12
then I up the weight by 10 or 14kg and do a set of 8-10, then without any rest I drop the weight and go to failure, drop the weight and go to failure, drop the weight and go to failure
the final set is ridiculous, you need to prepare yourself for it mentally and put on some good music, it gets intense, feels amazing though
My logic or mantra is that someone else might have better muscle building genetics than me but I guarantee they wont be able to push themselves as hard or take as much pain as I do

>big calves
Cows? Are you trying to say the word "cows?"
>tfw I have big calves naturally
>fattest I've been is 30 lbs overweight
I think it's genetic but also comes from the fact that I've sort of always walked on my toes, and also I tend to flex my calves in almost every situation.
>mfw you've never flexed your calves while masturbating

Watch your Achille's tendon my man, just because your muscle can handle it doesn't mean your tendons and ligaments can
How long were you fat?
