My genetic for calves are pretty crap, and to bring them up I've been trying out "James Flex Lewis Hybrid Calf Training" I saw on his fitshow video, its basically a giant set starting from toe press on a leg press machine for 30 reps, then moving quickly to standing calves on some plates for 15 reps, then finish off standing calves for 15 reps on the floor. I do 4 sets of this giant set. What do you think of this calves routine? It won't work as well as straight sets! Calves are pure genetics and if you don't have them you can't get them! So far I've been getting pretty awesome pump, and i always push to failure until my calves can't move anymore. You'll get a huge pump using giant sets but there wil be no permanent muscle growth beyond what you can get with heavy straight sets using impecabble form. Only started trying this method for a few times, I havent seen significant result yet. And you won't!

In my gym there is no seated calves machine, I dunno what to substitute for this? toe presses on leg press with knees bent to create a similar angle![/QUOTE]above

Damn! that sucks.. lol.. I'll just have to keep workin them with straight sets to the best of my ablities then, although i can't expect too much...

Thanks for the quick reply Ron!

They will grow some but they will never be diamond shaped with veins bulging year round. Dorian Yates is the prime example! He has not trained his calves in over 7 years and they are larger that 99% of the top-level bodybuilders of today. Dorian performed only 2 sets per week for his calves (1 set of standing calve raises for 10-12 reps and 1 set of seated calve raises for 6-8 reps) and his calves inserted at his ankles where as mine insert close to my knees....lol

Many of us have high calves and much of the time there simply isn't much meat there to work with in the first place. It sucks! Trust me, I know this as well as anyone. I inherited pitiful calve genetics from my dad and while they are a bit defined from years of hard work they won't grow in size to any noticable degree. Ignore all the silly training methods about increasing calve size because it's pure fantasy land. Anyone who tells you differently is either ignorant of the fact or being straight out being dishonest.

Most people with big calves will tell you they got them from playing sports in highschool....lol..Some things never cease to amaze. I played all sorts of sports and mine never grew. Why? Because of poor genetics in that area!!!!!

Thanks for the quick reply Ron!

Does this also apply to triceps?
I have very long limbs, so I need to build more mass than shorter limbed guys to look the same kind of build. Does that make sense?
Anyway, my triceps are ok at the top of my arm, but closer to my elbow there does'nt seem to be much muscle to build. Any tips you could give me Ronnie to add mass to this area would be great. What does seem to give me a pump to the little bit of muscle I have i there are skull crushers, but I never really seem to grow from them.
Many thanks.

many thanks.

Thanks for the reply Ronnie,
There are a few different substances that I can get hold of, i'm just struggling to get hold of trenbolone at the moment. Can you give me some choices of what you would consider to be a good substitue for trenbolone, to use with test 400 and winstrol? It would also be great if you could list in some kind of order from best to worst alternative so I know what to look out for. Please also consider that this will be a cutting reload.
Kindest regards.

With test/winstrol I would use 3-400 mgs of deca along side to keep joints healthy. Winstrol can be hard on the joints!Please also consider that this will be a cutting reload.

Thanks Ronnie,
The reload I was planning to do before I found out I could'nt get hold of the tren was Test at 1,400mg per week, Trenbolone 600mg per week and Winstrol at 50mg per day. I have worked my way up to this dosage from previous reloads, so considering I was going to be taking 600mg of tren per week, would your reccommendation of 3-400mg of Deca be enough or should I be taking more? Also, I can get hold of anabol tablets, would it be worth getting some of these or will it be to hard on my liver with the Winstrol? What would I dose the anabols at per day if ok to use?
Thanks again Ronnie.
