size means nothing.
if your squatting and doing plyo's/ jumping and your calves get bigger that is good. if your squatting and doing plyo's and your calves dont change, doesn't matter. size is a by product, not the aim.
its also heavy genetic.
size will take care of itself if your training and food are good
Why are you so special? Many people improve their vert by doing plyros, squats, deads. Why are you the only person that improves their vert with calve raises?
This guy has a 40 inch standing vert, check out what he does.
Yeah I dunno mate, maybe take a chill pill or go off the thread.
I have no idea what pisses you off, keep in mind I have been on this site for like 24 hours or something. I am taking in all ideas and believe it or not I am listening and considering getting a good mate to watch my technique etc...
I am not trying to offend anyone, at all. Just coz I dont squat now, doesnt mean next week I cant get into it etc.
Touch along the edge of your shin, then raise your toes to the roof, the muscle that contracts along the outside edge of your shinbone is your tibialis anterior. The gastrocnemius and the soleus are the muscles of the back of the calves that let you stand on tip-toe.the part of my calves which develop greatest is the side part of the calf muscle (tibialis anterior- I think).
I have been longing to increase the back part (gastrocnemius), which hopefully, if not just for visibly making my legs more proportionate, also help make my vertical jump increase.
not trying to troll. but strangely my best mate is a really good sprinter and his calves are quite large and and long. hahahaa which is weird. but he has a slight ghetto booty. soooo 1 out of 2 isnt bad.A good sprinter has a very short and small calve but a huge arse. The hevier the calve - the more energy is needed to pull the leg through.

Got between 50-51 on some measurement that looks bigger than cm, but less than inches :/ not sure what the hell it is, but 2 mates got 45ish. So I am doing basketball specific plyo like jump shots. Also I started squatting yesterday and predict addiction (it was fun as!!)
I am cutting leg press and calf raises till I plateau in squats. And will continue basketball specific plyo and measuring jump at least monthly, and mayb practice jumps etc (plyo style).
