I’m sure you know that the calf muscles are probably the hardest muscles to be able to gain size, the reason for this is because while we are walking around all day the calves are working their butts off so when it comes to gaining muscle on your calves it is not an easy task at all. Unless of course you are one of these people who are naturally gifted in the muscle building area (which I am not).
The first thing to remember when trying to gain big calf muscles is that instead of just doing the odd calf raise at the end of your workout you will have to start paying them a bit more attention and do some intense training on them. The sort of things that you need to be doing are calf raises (one foot or two footed) seated calf raises (add weights if you find it too easy) or even some donkey calf raises. If you do 2-3 sets of 12-15 then you should be well on your way to those bigger calves in no time, but just make sure you remember to keep the weights up and keep it intense.
