Check my calf routine

[davie]

Hey guys, well im back on my upper lower split and loving it (hard tho as have pretty manual job over summer).
I play rugby so i feel my calves/legs can take quite alot of abuse, i currently train calves 3 times a week, 10 sets each time. Ive been doing the following:

Seated calf raise 5x25 (do 15 reps pausing at top of each rep for 4 seconds then fully lowering it, i get 15 reps then i just rep out 10 quicker reps....sore lol),
THEN il do calf press on leg press machine 5x20.
I do this on monday and friday. on wednesday il change it and do:
Db standing calf raise starting with toes raised on blocks. Pausing at top of each rep for 4 seconds 5x15
THEN 5x10 standing BB raises quicker paced reps trying to explode up.

I thyink iv got all the rep ranges covered....i feel iv had wee bit improvement, i think outer calves are better but want overall size guys?

definitely looks like you got all the bases covered on calves bro...just keep poundin and dont get discouraged....gains in the calves, forearms, traps etc are often slow and hard to come by but dont let that stop you....ive found a mix of higher reps 20-25 on seated raises and donkey calf raises with heavy heavy wt and lower reps 10-12 to really blast em....as a matter of fact they are sore as shit today!!!
