Stop A Pulled Calf Muscle

Muscle resistance can cause a pulled calf muscle! Your calf muscles are used to every stimulus you give them and they will not grow. You see your calves carry you all day long and well they are used to the overload you give them -that is why a simple set of standing calf raises and seated calf raises will not do much of you when it comes to developing large calves and prevent a pulled calf muscle.

So you may increase the weight- I know many people who do partials with a thousand pounds on the standing calf raise exercise but still don't have very big calves.

I will share with you a simple synergistic tool that will magnify the effectiveness of your calves' routine and that might very well give you the calves you desire and help prevent a pulled calf muscle.

Here is how to perform it: Perform a regular set of standing calf raises taken to positive failure. After completing the set simply stand on the balls of your feet and hold that position for a count of 90 and then jump right back into another set of standing calf raises and do as many reps as you can, when you hit positive failure stand of your toes for another 90 seconds, keep on doing this until you can no longer perform one good repetition with the standing calf raises this can help prevent a pulled calf muscle.

You need only one set of this get "large calves" exercise, if done correctly your calves will be aching the next day and if you take measures to ensure recovery your calf muscles will grow and very soon you will have large calves and a pulled calf muscle.
