Calfs

[Htobrother]

Welcome,

The calf muscles play an important role in pumping blood through venous circulation and are therefore known as the peripheral heart. When we contract our calf muscles, the veins inside force the blood to flow upwards towards the heart. When the blood flows from the calf muscles to the heart, it has to travel against gravity, therefore, contraction of the calf muscles builds up an external pressure. There are two superficial muscles in the calf area- gastrocnemius and soleus.


train your calfs they are important and also feels good to train them it relaxes your whole system
Just do 10sets reps till failure and hold and squeeze at the top for 5-6 seconds
Do it at home

Calves are hugely genetic im just gonna wear jeans 24/7, training bad inserts isn't ideal and its only a niche for the minority of girls
