Hernons calf tip...wow

Calves come down to genetics..

Just find the best way for me is to hit them hard and squeeze the hell out of them til they burn.. pause til the burning stops, then hit them some more..

seated in smith machine

I have a huge ass towel that I wrap around a squat bar pad and do seated raises in the smith.

So today my calves are FRIED!!!! I haven't had sore calves in a very long time.

Someone mentioned in the smith machine just holding the bar like in a deadlift position and do raises. I'd have to give that a try...using straps of course.

Thanks for the great ideas fellas.

Calves are one of my better body parts, and I haven't directly trained them in years. People have asked me many times what my routine is, and they think I am lying when I say I don't work them directly. Calves seem to be one part that is extremely genetic dependent. I know guys that focus on them because they are a weak point, but they can't seem to get them to respond much at all.

I wish my good calve genes would have spread to the rest of my body, everything else is very average.
