say you weigh 250lbs.....you can stand on one foot and do a calve raise with your body weight.
if each calve can do that .......... then if your doing calve raises with 500 lbs at a weight of 250lbs... your not really working the muscle.
thats why arnold went up to using 1000 lbs on calves............. what was the result......
oh yeah........ 20 inch calves.
im only 220 lbs and 20 years old..... but i do rasies with 700 lbs........ im not eceptional strong on calves, juiced, or even all that genitically gifted in the calf region......... i just use Arnolds common sense.
good luck
