Starting with calves is something I learnt a few years back from Kai green. His philosophy was if you use your bigger/ stronger muscles first (quads/ hams) you won’t have the energy to put the effort in to training your calves at the end. That worked for me and was my staple routine for leg days since.
I don't know why people can't figure out that calves and forearms are different, they can be trained every day and need high volume to grow because they're the muscles we use constantly each day
Same with abs. I call them endurance muscles
@@TheNTMG Sure thing, abs are in the same category unless you live a sedentary life then they'll need a lot more work and rest than someone active
@@TheNTMG you are not hitting abs hard enough if you can train them every day.
@nolanrj44 you dont have to hit them to use them a lot everyday. You use them when you run or carry stuff. And at my job i sit in a truck and stand 1200+ times per shift which works them a lot
His calves started growing when he started anabolics, not doing bodyweight exercises. 😂🙄🤡
Fr. Is he open about it or lying to appear credible?
@@Nah1100He says he takes TRT
@@Nah1100 doesnt matter though
@@PLF... It matters if people follow his advice
@@PLF...lol
more vids of you two together are needed!
I do a full lower body warm up before every upper body workout. And vice versa. The body is one, therefore the whole body is warmed up. Nothing “heavy”, but over time it becomes the appearance of work, ie as you get bigger and stronger. I primarily just use the leg press for both calf and Quad, I start the leg press with calf pressing slow control then move into explosive calf pressing then leg presses. At my biggest I think they peaked just above 18inches. (But then again generically I had “bigger” calf muscles anyway)
Then there's me who has never trained calves but they are huge because my dad's are huge. Unfortunately the rest of my body is lagging lol
Yeah, I have a friend who always had super muscular calves, and at that point in his life, never went to the gym. Lol.
Big calves definitely seem to heavily reliant on having the right genetics for it. Knowing your realistic limitations and strengths I think is really huge when it comes to working out…just having realistic but smart expectations in general.
Yeah my family has big calves too. My mom's dwarf a lot NFL players lol
Interesting. I start with my foot joints, knees and hips. Arm joints Wrists, elbows and shoulders.
Then spine and neck.
Then start on weights and finish with cycling.
No one had ever said no to another set of calf raises. Man clearly be doing his calf raises wrong, they burn like holy hell! 🔥
If your calves aren’t sore. Train them.
My sister, has a ballet book prize, and letters behind her name ,, she starts with these every day 😂 since she was 7 yrs old . While I like to keep my leg ,, below the knee and just as important the muscles of the foot in good athletic shape . It’s that area below the calf ,, that links to the foot , that’s springs you along , the muscles on the top and bottom of your foot etc ,, running , cycling sportsman’s legs . I want to keep these . They are not always the ones that show,, LARGE,, but they are pivotal in sport
I love how people say they want big calves but have 3 sets at the end of a workout
I never do calves I naturally have well developed calves
Can we just agree calves are genetics. Doesn't matter how much time you spend on them. I'm 30 now, prior military, have walked miles with a heavy ruck. These MFs don't grow. I have tried training them everyday, heavy/light slow / fast full range of motion with pause. And yes i have done more than 100 reps on calves + more. Nah this dude just has better calves insertion. Excuse the rant. Just frustrated, don't get me wrong my calves are strong AF but if you see them. You would say i skip leg day ... FML
Don’t train them like a bro.
Progressive overload.
Don’t do pump reps, accentuate the stretch at the bottom.
Lengthened portion of the rep is superior for muscle growth.
Get stronger calf’s, dont pump 100s of junk reps.
i played soccer 12 years, iam 185cm in height and my weight back then was like 70kg. I have quite impressive calves from that time. Like those u expect someone with 150kg to have.
I have a short lower leg and in combination with a long calve muscle it looks even bigger.
If you have a long lower leg and a short calve muscle, no work in the world will get you a calve like mine. You can still grow them with progressive overload so it doesnt look shitty, its just that they never will look that impressive.
So yeah you can grow them, but genetic play a role. Just with every other muscle. My back for example is way harder to bring up. So usually it evens out. I would trade my calves for a better back 😅
@@slumped9677his calves won’t get massive no matter how he trains. He has a high calve insertion what it sounds. Professional athletes like Jon Jones have super skinny calves but he is super strong.
You can build any big muscle. Will it grow at a different rate as someone else? Definitely. Will it look the same on your body as someone else? No. But, you can definitely grow your calf muscle. I have small quads and glutes but slowly they are growing. I have to really focus on them but they have grown. Just takes longer and more consistency.
they’re no more genetic than any other muscle, but that didn’t stop anyone from training their triceps or their chest, so why skip calves?
You build a house from the FOUNDATION! Real simple principals to live by.
I've literally never work calves, I fucking hate stairs, no calf muscle activation... I'm building a bungalow.
But, probably my nicest muscle group. Everythjng else is a wee bit shit but the calves are *chefs kiss*
There another way to get really strong legs… ride a bike! For the last 10 yrs I’ve used bicycles as my primary mode of transit, my legs have never been stronger. Lots of opportunity to get stronger everyday if you rethink some lifestyle norms.
Woah 100× calves
No matter how much you train calves there will always be a 50 year old guy in Bunnings ( Australian home depot) with bigger ones.
forbidden calf growth technique is just to become a tradie
I literally have done this for years ,500 reps every workout before whatever else i'm doing and i constantly get questions ,compliments and people asking me how i grew my calves so large and defined
My boy turned his calfs into cows 😂
Full body every day is the best if you have the time & the facility
This man’s lowering his voice for clips? Surely not 😂
Most people throw calves in at the end of lets say a leg day, theyre tired, not focused, low energy, no motivation. Starting with calves has always been suggested if youre nit seeing improvement in your calves. Its smart
Any lagging body part is good to start with
Stay puffy Chris
Always start with a weak body part first! Also Monday is leg day not chest!
Calves are the best to thing to train
Alex, very true post, however, if you did machine calf raises under load, you probably would achieve the same results 5 years ago
I most definitely will say no to another set of calf raises😂
I've been doing the same full body routine five days a week for decades. There's some variation to compete with plateauing, but I don't waste time with trying to be fancy and versatile. It's a gimmick for most people.
Joe Weider’s PRIORITY PRINICIPLE:
Start your workout with lagging body parts.
Double your volume mate, blurry bluuyr blurry warm 🥵
Do you need a next level online coach Chris ? I mean some people have kind of more expertise in sales than in actual fitness im the reverse my expertise in fitness is better than most of those guys combined im more ripped then them and im not on trt or anything so... 😅 i look forward to someone famous like you trying my workouts and my approach
Less calf training, more visits to the barber !
Robbie Fowler wants his nose strip back!
I must admit I dont really train calves but Im a fat guy and have big calves by default.
Bro I throw calve raises in on arm day cause they’re so hard to grow
High dose TRT really cancels out a lot of training blunders.
I have been starting all my sessions with a decent burn on the stairs. Then I do core or back BEFORE I move into any lifts because that way I know everything is well supported. Just makes sense. Also a good idea to work opposing muscle groups together for the same reason ie make sure you do some back work in your pressing sessions too
Not everyone is on gear either
This has to be satire
Why does he always have that thing on his nose?
because he thinks he's better than you
@@Thomas-tm3ts lmao
I do full budy every day 😊
He took many steroids
What happened to your voice at the end holy shit
not everyone does full body every session? why not? It’s a great way to get consistent gains. If you need to take 2 days off on a muscle group every week, you’re not really being consistent.
He takes TRT too 😄
My calves are as genetically black as one could imagine . I try and try and still not very pronounce . I jump high as hell …can’t dunk but I can reach over the rim and give you moderate time on the 40 ..but can’t grow em big to save my life.
Walk properly (like a snake) and wear minimalist shoes: my calves doubled in size in one year.
Get puffy
Curious 🤔🧐 and he doesnt mention the arthritis in this vid 😂😂😂😂
Manny Pacquiao is the king of calves!
It’s crazy how he has a gym business and doesn’t know how to train optimally. I’m poor and smaller than him though so fuck it
Great short. Talk about calves. Never showed the calves.😂😂😂😂😂😂
They did, you just missed it because it looked like biceps 💪
Actually more like massive triceps
Who has the time ffs
Why would anyone ever want calves that look like that? The muscle is bunched making it more prone to injury. It also looks awful.
That's him flexing his calf.. you can't "bunch the muscle" by exercising it
💖❤️💪❤️💖
Is that dude Alex's wife trans
tf?
She's biological female ex body builder who took testosterone.
Stop promoting fake living. You have enough decent content to be legit. Young people will appreciate it. Also Brit >> yank for anything
Why does this guy always have a bandaid over his nose?

Second heart
Worst beard in the game
