Claves growth and size genetic ?

[maximrect]

When I was younger I always wanted huge calves. I worked them out pretty regular. Now that I'm older I really haven't needed to. My calves aren't the biggest but Im happy with them.

I see a lot of guys complaining that calves are genetic, You're using AAS yet your calves wont grow.
How do you guys train them? What I've learned is that there are 3 golden rules. what ever exercise you use there's three basics. First stretch the hell out of them, meaning go down all the way on the movement until it hurts. Then you flare yours calves while still stretched or what i call the first flex. you can flex your calves by flaring them out (they widen and spread), and you can flex them when pointing your toes. Then you push off and at the top is the second flex ( when your toes are pointed away ). Repeat.

Calves may be genetic like everything else but give this a shot.

The reality isn't so much genetic as they don't train them at all.

I appreciate the calf training tips. Always a weak point for me, and I do train them a lot.

we all have weak and strong body parts. people should stop trying to become the next bikini model and just go have a good time in the gym. hit all your areas equally and stay healthy with regular maintenance

Riding a bicycle is what took my calves to the next level. Instead of doing cardio at the gym ride a mountain bike on some trails.

i run 10 miles a day 5 days a week and while im clearly not a big guy, my calves certainly are

Calves respond well the very high volume. Running, biking, hiking with a heavy pack, sports with rapid direction changes etc

Cant change your genetics. Just hit your weak areas harder than the others
