First I would like to say everyone is different and therefore respond differently to exercises. You have to experiment a bit to figure out what's best for you. My calves used to be a piece of flabby shit until I hit em heavy. Arnolds calves were one of his most lagging body parts and until he starting doing standing calf raises with 500 lbs. or so (read: heavy) they wouldn't grow.

arnold also used steroids........read:drugs, so they grew!!

ha. would you agree that it's possible I might respond differently to heavy weight than you? I said you have to experiment to figure out what's best.

you dont have do do high reps with heavy weight, i do 20-30 and reach failure...arnold might have been doing 500lbs for 3 reps or 20 reps.....any way, dont compare probably the best bodybuilder ever to an average joe here on elite, no offense!

Also, people have different slow to fast twitch muscle ratios.

by the way it was heavy for him meaning low rep range and you're right I'm nothing like arnold anyways.

I'm waiting.......... Also when I mean heavy that means you physically can't go past 6-8 reps.

dont be stupid, yes, there are different ratios, but the over all complex is the same, every one has far more slow twitch opposed to fast twitch in their calves...this is very childish, i dont want to fight over calf training, i have done research for sports sceince assignments on this stuff so lets just leave it, lets grow up....

peace dude
