How many reps do you do for calves?

the 75 rep, eod routine is working when NOTHING else has. it's not an overnight miracle but progress is progress. i'll take anything i can get on these suckers

You didn't include a category for zero.

My calves are the most well developed muscle on my body and all I do for legs is deadlifts, squats, and run 18 miles per week.

How many reps do you do for calves?

3 standing sets, about 2 minutes apart.- the first two at 50 reps, the last one to fail. The first free, the second two weighted. My calves look like Olive Oyles

Don't he hatin' Mac. I have trouble with pecs and in the grand scheme of things I'd rather have those than calves.

no way i'm reading through this whole thread, but i'll throw in another plug for Nelson. i heard about his way of training calves a couple years ago, and have not done it another way since. do it.

zilch.... never do them. i'm one of those lucky ones

i have been doing the 75 routine, but here lately i haven't been able to get all the way through it no mater what the weight. i think it is learing how to contract my calves better. they get so pumped now I can't do anymore. i have never been able to get a pump from my calves until using this and hitting them eod. got a long way to go though. anybody ever direct inj.?
