Aidens never done one calf raise and has huge calfs =p
If he's never worked out to get there though, that really is incredible haha. Strong disproportions though, his quads should be bulking out his pants.

Calves are weird, some people just have absolutely huge calves just by genetics. A while back, I was at the beach, and I saw this one girl playing DDR (a dance game) in one of the arcades. She was only probably about 18ish, and I swear to god I've never seen another woman with calves that looked anything close to hers. It wasn't like she looked like she was a bodybuilder or anything either, as the rest of her body looked fairly average. This is the closest I can find to what her calves looked like:

If there's anything I envy about physique it's people with huge calves! Especially those who do fuck all to get them.

I've noticed that mail men have huge calves.

This calf development happens when you ride your bike daily. I know a friend that has those kinds. Do you actually dorsiflex & plantarflex enough to stimulate calf growth like that when riding a bike?

i have a friend who is a professional biker and his calves are fucking huge too...
but without training them it's pretty crazy to get those big calves...

I bought an exercise bike 2 months go and have used it 15mins nearly every day - I can't believe how much my calf muscle has developed!! But yeh when riding i'm just in dorsiflexion of the ankle joint.

On a somewhat related note, I hadn't worked my calves for probably 4 months, up until today, using the exact same weights as when I was regularly training them.

Agreed! I used to have average calves before I got my racing bike. My dad arched an eyebrow the other day and said "You had calves before, but now you've got the whole f**king herd! *laughs*"
Thanks old man....thanks

I'm still curious as to how the hell they grow so much just from cycling, it must cause some super sarcoplasmic hypertrophy or something.

I just always figured it was because of the amount of pressure and weight you put on your calves while biking in uphill or in high gear. Personally, I didn't notice much difference until I started to bike in 18th gear on the open road, and 9th gear up this freakin steep as hell 3km hill near my home =/ (this also caused muscle development on my thighs because I had to rise my backside off the seat just to get enough strength to turn the pedals going uphill...although very slooooooooowly....)
