I ask because I never do. I've been training for about 4 years or so now, but have worked my calves maybe 2 times in 4 years. I do squats and deadlifts, just never calves.

How many of you train calves regularly?

Is it worth it or a waste? I have decent sized calves as it is.
 
yes, i train them twice a week. once heavy, and once light.
strong calves will help your squat.
 
I voted 'No' but I do them every once in a while. I think squats and deads do more for them long-term than direct work.

If you need them extra buff for a special occasion then a couple of weeks targetting them might blow them up and sharpen them for a while but otherwise stick to squats and deads.
 
100 reps standing calf raises, alternating 10 reps each leg individually, all non-stop until the pain becomes unbearable, then only enough rest to complete the next set.

Cows just topped 18" as of last night, so I guess it's working.
