How to get bigger calves

[SwissVan]

Sure, don't get me wrong, there will always be exceptions to the norm.

 

But I'm willing to bet Nick, Jan, Fabian, Caveman (not that he has MASSIVE calfs, but anyways...) never spent time in the gym working their calfs specifically to look bigger.  No, they look like they do beacause they hit the road and hit it hard for hours and hours and hours, and that is why they are all balls of muscle and the best athletes in the world.  That's the point I was trying to make.

 

If you want to look strong, go waste 3 hours a week on your calfs.  If you want to to let your legs to the talking, go ride hard three times a week (and you may just end up looking like the above mentioned guys).

 

 

 

Great contribution - you must be busy working out your calfs.

 

There is a distinct difference between well devolped calves and large calves, the guys Wyatt mentioned all have well developed calves.

 

In the same breath i would say IMO that large and to some degree well developed calves are in the minority when it comes to elite level endurance (short, middle and ultra distance) runners. Just look at the top runners and see how many more of them have "small or less developed calves" compared to those with large or well developed calves.

It's "calves" not calfs.

 

You have probably never seen Caveman's calves have you ?

Do you know who Caveman is ?

 

But your point is valid, no amount of calve work in the gym will turn you in to a speed demon.

Genetics on the other hand does, regardless of your size.

 

Apologies - an ealier poster said "calfs" was acceptable.  So much fro grammer on the Hub...

 

I'm a huge fan of Conrad Stoltz - probably one of SA's most under-recognised athletes of ALL TIME.  Multiple X-terra WORLD CHAMPION, Olympian and 99.9% of SAfricans have never heard of him.

 

Anyways, I'm off . Continue to flame in my absense.

Is this the story your mom told you to tell the other kids about your "CALFS"?

 

 

It was actually all those tall girls I was doing from behind that told be that.

Yip, the guy with the big calves, slap a bit of fat on them and they become massive.

Lot's of guys have big calves till they get ripped.

That is what they refer to as "generalisation"

It's like all chicks with big jugs are sluts.
