I have skinny legs, I do calf raises and it gets me so far but then it doesn't get bigger it returns to skinny

Answer 1

to effectively stimulate the calves there must be good flexibility in the lower leg and you have to take only short breaks between sets (15-20 secs) and use substantial weight (bodyweight +) the calves are predominately slow twitch muscles and are very resilient.

in terms of the potential for muscle growth the tendon that attaches the calve muscle to the femur determines this. the longer the tendon the shorter the muscle belly the less potential for growth there is.

Answer 2

Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%.

Chew each morsel at least 32 times. Do not touch articles of food or the cutlery in between. This will activate ur body to generate strong signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.

Take light exercises and brisk walks (minimum 20 min duration) regularly preferably twice a day.

U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry. It is however to be noted that one cannot change the shape or size of different parts of the body.

Answer 3

Try eating. I hear some food goes right to the calfs.

Answer 4

eat protein...get some protein powder and have some either before or after you work out.
