Would like to see your form and training schedule. 99% of people train their body normally then step on a calf raise machine and bounce with no rom for two extremely gay and retarded sets like some kind of ignoramus.

Try climbing stairs on the balls of your feet. That hits my calves hard.

Best calves in the world come from high dose anabolic bodybuilders and endurance athletes, specifically cyclist. Choose your path.

You have to train calves with heavy weight and high reps.

The calves are so used to being used everyday (walking, running ), that higher reps are essential.

20-25 rep range
