Best Calf Exercises to Help Grow & Strengthen Your Calves

To the uninitiated there are few ways to develop bigger calf muscles, but there are some minor tweaks you can make to your routine that can end up making a big difference.

Are calf muscles more difficult to grow than other muscles?

Calves are a tough area to develop in terms of muscle mass, and many people give up trying. They are a well-developed muscle group from all the walking and running we do, so you need to go above and beyond to grow them.

Why are calves often lacking?

The constant amount of walking and running we do during everyday life and exercise develops our calves, so the odd set of 20 reps doesn't really scratch the surface of what needs to be done to develop them more.
