What Exercises Can You Do For Calves?
Running, walking, and hiking are excellent calf-strengthening exercises, especially when you go uphill. The steeper the climb, the more your calves have to work. Running sports such as soccer, basketball, and tennis demand that you run, jump, and push off your calf muscles to accelerate or change direction quickly.
All of the above will allow you to develop your calves over time, however, they are highly genetics dependent as such some people may see results faster than others, be consistent and eventually you’ll improve.
