    Use the seated leg press with your legs extended and your feet hanging more than half way off the bottom of the plate you push on, push with the balls of your feet bending at the ankle.

    Hold a dumbell in your hand (you can use a wrist strap). Stand half on/half off a stair on one foot and bend up and down at the ankle.

    Use a rotary calf machine.

    Pause for a sec or two at the bottom part when your calves are stretched the most, and pause at the top part of the exercise when your calves are flexed the most. Helped mine grow

    Donkley calf raises with a partner adding resistance to make ever rep unbearable seems to be working for me. I dont even do anything else for calfs cause they get so wrecked at all angles.
