I have been training them hard for about 3 years now... I would go to the gym for a day and train nothing but calves. Heavy weight, full range of motion, and drop sets... sometimes triple drop sets. Standing, seated, and “donkey” style on the leg press. I would hit them so hard it would be difficult to drive home. Yet unfortunately I see no improvement. They are a little more defined now but still extremely small.
Considering the nature of calf fiber makeup, give weighted vest walks a shot. Worked great for me. I’m also not talking about some pussy ass Walmart 20 lbs. vest either. Get one of the 80-100s that are used in firefighter training and walk a mile or two a day in it. If your calves don’t grow from that, I’m at a loss.
