Top 10 Workouts for Muscle Mass- #10 Calf Press

Calf Press

In terms of sheer bulk, calf exercises usually rank pretty low on the list. I'm throwing this one in at number 10 because I want to provide options for all the important muscles. A lot of bodybuilders focus solely on their upper body while neglecting lower body, but this really gives you a disproportionate look.

None of the other workouts for muscle mass in this list (except possibly the clean) put any kind of real strain on the calves. My favorite way to bulk up the calves is a simple standing calf raise using weights on your shoulders.

This is a really simple routine that should start giving you results within a few weeks. Genetics can be to blame for small calf muscles, but I have personally found that even that can be overcome through consistency and the right workouts.

Hopefully you have enjoyed this series of posts on the best workouts for muscle mass! Check back tomorrow for another great workout article.
