need better calf routine.....

OK, I do 3 sets of 6-8 seated and standing calf raises, yet the inner part of my calf seems to be getting bigger then the outter. I've tried pointing my toes twards each other, but that doesn't seem to make a difference in my case.....does anyone have any opinions or advice......thanks
 
Here's a routine I use:

Calf raises on leg press****4 X 12-15 + 1drop set
Seated calf raises*********3 X 15-20
Century Mark************1 X 100 continuous reps

As far as your inner getting bigger than the outer, I'm not sure if there's much you can do? You can just emphasize pushing off on your outer couple toes vs. distributing your weight through the entire ball of your feet. Again, I don't know what, if any, difference this will make, but its worth a try.
 
My inner calf is also significantly larger than the outer. I don't think we can do anything about it. The development of the shape is entirely genetic. I like to do one-footed standing calf raises holding a 40 lb. dumbell or so.

I must agree as I have the same development and I have been told that my calves "are obscene" :D
 
pointing your toes toward each other concentrates more on the inner part of your calf. Try pointing them away from each other. You might also want to try some donkey raises (if you have acces to that type of machine). If you really wanna burn your calves out.....take about half of the weight your normally do and do one set as many times as you can (it should be about 25 or so) then stop for ten seconds and jump back on there and do as many as you can, and then wait another ten seconds...keep doing this untill you reach 100 reps. by then your calves should be SCREAMING!!!
