    It could never b the wrong hobby for any body type. Yeah u may not have what it takes to b a pro, but the hobby isn't about that. It's about making what u have the best possible! Doin a good job!

    I think it's pretty close. Maybe a bit higher, but not by much.

    Well for my moral I'm gonna think 15.5! :P

    Maybe, maybe not. Some people just can't grow calves for shit. IMO there really is no overtraining that group.
    They will grow, I just have to figure them out lol I'll b honest. I used to not concentrate on them because they are harder to grow so I lost patience lol when in reality I should have been concentrating on them more! That's what I'm doing now!

    Slow, steady progressive overload works best IMO. Look at fat people; most of them have huge calves even when they eventually lose weight. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of them. I was fat (between 230-255lbs) for the better part of 15 years and still had skinny calves.... still do today. Meh.

    Mine's all over the place, lol. Meaning - it depends on what routine i'm running at any given time. Right now i'm training total body 3x weekly (M/W/F), so it's low volume/high intensity. Monday I hit front squats/hyperextensions/calves (seated press), today was barbell squats/lying leg curl/calves (seated press), Friday will be deads/leg press/calves (on leg press). Pretty basic stuff. Nothing fancy, only effective.
