Calf Workout - Have you ever seen the guys at the gym who have jacked upper bodies and bulging quads, but twigs below the knees? It’s clear they skimp on the calves exercises in their workouts. It can be easy to make these smaller muscles an afterthought, but strong calves don’t only help to balance out your appearance, they’re also key to gaining power and explosiveness both inside and outside the gym.
Your calf muscles help propel you forward and up in explosive movements. This makes them very useful for sprinting and plyometrics, and any activity that requires leg propulsion or foot stabilization upon landing, like cycling, running, volleyball, or basketball.
Tight calf muscles can limit your ankle mobility and potentially increase the likelihood of injuries like shin splints, plantar fasciitis, or Achilles tendonitis. That’s why it’s crucial to regularly train your calves.
You probably know someone who has massive, sharply defined calf muscles, yet rarely exercises. Meanwhile, you’ve been training your calves three times a week and still only see minimal results. What gives?
Genetics play a role in your muscle makeup and size due to the allocation of Type I and Type II muscle fibers. While Type I fibers are more resistant to fatigue, they tend to have a lower growth potential than Type II, “fast twitch,” muscle fibers.
Everyone has a different percentage of Type I and Type II muscle fibers, meaning someone with a genetic predisposition to Type II fibers may have a greater growth potential than someone who is more Type I dominant.
The right workout routine, diet, and recovery plan can help you build stronger, more athletic calves no matter where you’re starting from. Install Calf Workout app and learn more today.
