My 2 favorites are the single leg calf raise and a calf press, I might just add an exercise for the tibialis after seeing this though. And I hope you actually continue this series. I wanna see your top 2s for upper traps and obliques, maybe serratus too.

I bought a spinning calf block by Stewart innovations (which can be found on amazon or google) and I like to use this to perform seated calf raises with dumbbells on my knees, this gives an amazing contraction. I also perform 2 legged standing calf raises with a dip belt to add 40kg’s of plates. The single leg calf raise as you performed is definitely the best and most humbling calf exercise though IMO. I’ll have to try your soleus version sometime. Cheers

You're wasting your time with seated calf raises, what happens when you bend the knee is that you take the Gastrocnemius out of the equation and isolate the Solues, a muscle that's barely visible. In a calf raise with a straight leg you will train both the Gastro and Soleus.

As a person with some pretty decent calves I can attest to both these movements. 3 sets of super-setting single leg calve raises and tibia raises, both until failure for 3-4 times a week for a couple years will get you some great calve development. Best part imo, like Eugene said, you can literally do them on stairs at home in about 10-15 min and be done!

I fabricated a dorsiflexion machine for the tibialis anterior, using pillow block bearings and a padded lever over a welded frame. If you would like a picture, let me know. Also for the standing calf raises, I have found that using a curved surface to stand on increases the range of motion and comfort. I split a 7-inch diameter log about a foot long in half, then ran it through a planer to make the flat surface even. I then covered the curved surface with rubber mat, stapling it in place . Following this I screwed two 1" by 4" by 10 inch long boards into the split log at the ends to keep it stable.

Way back in the 1970s Arthur Jones told me that many people were bugging him to build a "calf machine". He further told me that he was going to build one and sell it for a lot of money just to shut them up but the absolute best calf machine is a dumbbell and a block of wood. I'm glad to see that you are preaching the same thing. Both you and Arthur are absolutely correct. Thanks for a great video.

Nice video. For the single-leg ones, it's more challenging to do it like you did it, with the weight held to the opposite side of the leg that you're lowering and raising, as opposed to what I did intuitively, which was to place the weight on the same side as the moving side. The video helped correct me. Thanks.

Genetics still play a big factor. Even before I started working out I had big calves and quads, people thought leg day was my favourite day. Then after consistently working out they became more defined and huge. They grew way easier compared to my upper body muscles. alternatively, some body builders have disproportionately smaller calves despite working them out.
@oxrjbizzle1984y
@oxrjbizzle1984y 4 жыл бұрын
​@@ceruleanx5364 yeah certain muscle groups have a huge genetic component like abs, calves, forearms come to mind first and foremost. calves are certainly the most stubborn muscle group to grow for most people, but i think a big problem with people is that they don't focus enough on building them. they just add 2 or 3 sets of toe raises at the end of leg day where they just bounce the weight up and expect their calves to grow, lol....

First exercise is my favorite too! I never felt my calves better than with this one. However for the soleus I prefer to go with seated variation, because my quads could not take all that pressure in a standing position after my squats and lunges. I never thought about the 2nd exercise shown and its excellent to superset it with the first one because this way the calves get a strech too so you can perform better when going for the next set. Thanks for the tips mentioned and also the first part of the clip!

Simple yet so efficient. During my 3-4th years of training I really started seriously to trash calves and it was with 8x20 and 5x25 set/rep schemes with a 1s pause at top. After two years of that, I could do standing toes raises with about 800lbs for 4x25 and seated ones with 6 1/2 plates. Then I got a double peritendinitis on both Achilles tendons and couldn’t even do a BW one leg calf raise without pain. Took the time to heal them and make change, now I maintain them at just under 17" with good tempo and technique. 3x6-8 3s top 3s eccentric 10s bottom, 5x8-10 5s top 5s eccentric 5s bottom and so on. When you don’t get them by just walking and bicycling you just have to be a bit smarter. 🙏

I loved the intro. Great advice for all to filter through BS! We totally appreciate your transparency, in fact, it's refreshing. As far as favorite calf exercises, I agree with single leg calf raise. I'm also a fan of calf raises using both legs, but varying the foot position across the sets to parallel, turned out, and turned in.

It hurts my ankles to do the toes-in variation, but I found a way to do the raises that work the outside gastrocs while pointing the toes out. I got one of those heavy rubber calf raise things to put on the floor. It's got a long ramp up one side and a short ramp down the other, and there's no flat surface on top, just up one ramp and down the other, though the point formed by the two ramps is rounded. I always use the long side. Anyway, I point my feet out pretty significantly, at maybe 45 or 60 degrees, and I have the middle of my feet behind my toes set to where I can rock my feet over the top of the ramps when doing the calf raise. With my feet pointed out while also tilting my feet over the ramp really contracts the outside gastrocnemius in a far more comfortable way than trying to do these exercises with my toes pointing in. You also have to kind of consciously "choose" to contract them that way, but positioning your feet like this on the ramp makes it easier to set up the right mechanics to allow that contraction to happen very easily. When I do these, the outsides of my calves really feel pumped. Once they get fatigued, I immediately turn my feet more straight ahead to target the inner gastrocnemius while the outer ones are tired as hell. It hurts a lot to do the regular calf raises after all that, by the way. I have to experiment more with pushing through the pain, I think. I'm just afraid I'm going to injure something if I let it hurt too much for too long.

I only had my left leg since birth and walking around/balancing with just one leg and a prosthetic right leg made it bigger than most trained people and that is without any direct work. I'm sure most casual lifters could benefit by reducing the weight and do single leg bodyweight training. Pistol Squats/Single Leg Calve raises(Can do 50-100reps almost everyday without recovery problems) like in the video have done wonders for me since i can't do conventional squats with a bar.

I believe it’s both genetics and hard work .... many bodybuilders have bigger calves but because of small or shorter lengths they look small. And some guys with smaller calves but long insertions looks massive calves. Let me give you my example. If I wear small ankle socks my calves look small. But if I wear high ankle boots my calves looks massive because it creates the illusion of longer insertion and muscle belly.

You are the first person I have seen in "DECADES" that has EVER mentioned the Tibialis Anterior (NERD ALERT) in training!!! I was a sprinter for 15 years and runners in general will encounter "SHIN SPLINTS" (as the condition was called back in the stone age) sometime in their athletic career. It was (is) a VERY PAINFUL condition and can sideline your running quickly. As I moved from running to just training in the gym people will ALWAYS look at me with this very strange "what the @#$% is he doing" look when working the shins. Hopefully now people will give me the thumbs up for working a forgotten muscle instead of the "you haven't showered in months" look! Keep up the good work!!!

7:45 an easy way to balance yourself by holding on to a stable object without cheating is to hold on from underneath so that you are pushing yourself down instead of lifting yourself up. You should be able to balance yourself without assisting yourself.
