For some people, Calves Exercises can be the hardest to archive results. This is because the muscles in the calves are designed by nature to take a lot of punishment. You walk and run on your calves everyday. The calves without you realizing it are being worked all day long. This means you really have to work them hard and intense to see results. Don’t be afraid to punish your calves in your workouts. Train them every workout day if you have to. Here are some tips to get your calves to grow.

Work Every Angle You Can

Attacking the calves from different angles will help spark muscle growth. For example, when performing the calf raise.

1. Start out by having your feet parallel to each other.
2. During the next exercise, have your toes pointed in ward.
3. Then in the last exercise, have your toes pointed outward.

You might even want to try to lean forward when doing these calves exercises to take advantage of all the angles. The different angles will work different parts of your calves. Training different parts of your calves will help make your entire calf grow as a whole.

Vary The Weights And Change The Sets

Keep your calves guessing. Never have them get used to one routine with the same weight.

One example is during the first week, try a pyramid system where you increase the weight load in every set. Then the second week, try a descending set routine where you will start out with a very high weight and then decrease the weight in every set. Variety will confuse the muscle and force them to grow.

Change The Rest Times Between Your Sets

One week try a 30 second rest interval, then the next week go with a 60 second rest interval. Another way to confuse the muscle.

Change The Amount Of Days You Do Your Calves Exercises

One week you might workout the calves everyday. Then the next week, you might workout out the calves one to three days. Just one more way to confuse the muscle and spark growth.
