Arnold Schwarzenegger was one of the most genetically gifted bodybuilders in history, you've got to remember that his calves weren't genetically great. In fact, Arnold's calf girth was downright embarrassing.
So what strategy did the greatest bodybuilder of all time employ to build his calves? I'll let him tell you:
"I train them 30 to 45 minutes a day, six days a week." (1) NOTE HIS WORDS, SIX DAYS A WEEK !
Okay, so he trained them six days a week, but did he do anything else? According to his book, he also sought to stimulate his calves throughout the day. For those who wanted bigger calves, he said:
"When you are walking, make an effort to go all the way up on your toes... " (1)
Six days of training per week along with tricks to stimulate the calves throughout the day. That's a lot of frequency!
What do you guys think about this kind of training by were you hit the same muscle every few days and not just once a week ????
