Default Switch things up then

and try doing calves on non-leg training days.

Here are a few possibilities to try:

3 sets of Standing calves at 20-25 reps.
3 sets of Calf Presses at 20-25 reps

Next calf training day 2-3 days later on a non-leg day....

3 sets of Standing calves at 20-25 reps.
3 sets of Seated or Donkey Calves at 20-25 reps.

Do these at a moderate speed rather than slower movements but keep the movements controlled nonetheless. After doing this routine for about 4-6 weeks, then give this a try:

3 sets of Standing calves at 12-15 reps
3 sets of Calf presses at 12-15 reps
3 sets of Seated calves at 12-15 reps supersetted with tibialis curls at 30 moderately paced reps

Do these every other day, but on non-leg days. For the normal rep pace give a paced positive-contraction-negative like a 2-1-2 count or 2-1-3 count. Be sure to eat. If you experience shin splints with this one then drop the tibialis curls.

Later, you can go back to another moderately paced like a 1-1.5 second count on negatives and positives. Do full range of motion to get the highest peak contraction and the greatest stretch you can get.

Hopefully, this will be something new for you to try out and will be a different way to trick the calves. They calves are the most used muscle in the body unless you are a bedfast sexaholic. They can handle a high volume, but if this is too much volume then work your way up to this through several routines. After a while you could go back to doing calves on leg days, but my typical leg day used to be too high of volume to do calves.

We will spend eternity feasting on happiness and love that is perfect. All will be happy in the new age where God will be our center and is our strength. *** Spook
