Unless you are genetically gifted, which it doesn't
sound so, you are pretty much hooped. Luckily I
received the genes that able me to have ripped 18"
calves without doing any work to them. (It looks
kind of funny because my quads only measure 25").
Anyways, I tell everybody the same thing when they
ask me what I do. I tell them that they are not going
to grow substantially (unless you use some AS, but
even still the results won't stay to long after
coming off them) so work them like you want to get
them as ripped as possible. When this occurs, they
may grow a little bit, but if they are ripped they
usually look bigger anyways. Try this routine for
about a month and see what happens:
Standing Calf Raise @ 100 lbs
Single Leg Calf Raises @ bodyweight
Seated Calf Raises @ 90 lbs.
Do one set of each exercise without resting.
Rest about 1 minute and do it again.
Rest and repeat one last time.
Keep the weight the same each time.
Good luck
Calfman.
