 Anybody got tips on how to build calf muscles and legs in general better, I used to do distance running and I feel like I’m stuck with runner’s legs

Weighted Calf raises

I was in a similar situation and this leg day, ideally twice a week if you can worked pretty well for me. Abductors and adductors to start, then 2x warm up sets of squats, 3x working sets, and 1-2 heavy sets to finish. Then leg extensions, hip thrusts, and calf raises to finish off. Even with that I feel like my calves are still not big enough compared to my thighs but it definitely made a big difference in my overall leg bulk and shape.

The good news is you probably already have lean and defined legs from running so all you have to do is bulk them up a little bit and they’ll get big fr
