Body parts with less developement

[Pastor]

My calves, forearms and a little bit my shoulders. During all this years of training i have heard and read a lot of different strategies to attack slow body parts: -train them more. -train them less. -train them different form other body parts, etc. Personally except for calves, which i train twice a week, i train all my body parts in the same manner, with same intensity and frequency...i believe that over the years of faithful training your body evens out; anyways am here to learn and try different and new things. How do you train your slow body parts?

I would also love to hear everyone's thoughts on this. For me it's calves. I have very developed quads and my calves look like dog shit. I hit them 2x/week with varying volume and exercises...but to no avail.

Never do another’s routine . No pro no trainer unless they meet you in person . However do try to find various methods .
Try seated heavy 12-15 full stretch full Contractions then with close to zero seconds rest jump to standing calf do 12-15 full after can’t get full do few Partial reps one set , do last rep hold contraction for long as you can on different set then or stay under pads hold stretch once . More would be too much . The sequence is important . It creates hyperplasia .
There used to be apparatuses called nautilus multi machine . But rare to find . After 10 years natty training I made few adjustments put 2 inches on calves in 3 months natty . To this day AAS 20 plus cycles never equaled . But I’d put the waists belt on do 10 reps of standing calf then when no more could do I bent over took top half body weight off did more then exhausted used the dip bars to do forced reps and negatives . So if you got one of those try .
Standing calf pick weight you do 10 hard reps then either you or partner move pin down after each 10 fast with no rest at all do another ten until you can’t take it . Now you already if done right did heavy on the initial 10 reps making fibers engorge . The institution of extended sets adds another proven dimension of creating hyperplasia ( creating MORE fibers also increase size ) anyone says you need heavy weights to increase size is 50-70 years behind research or didn’t go intense enough on lighter portion . Arnold called it the “ cheating principle “ now there are so many variations ( google Xrep ) which footnotes all studies of bodybuilding done this millennium. Because all or most previous studies were fitness or power lifting not bodybuilding. Bodybuilding never been recognized or respected most of 20th century even though people considered radical now proven like Arthur Jones etc . Germany , Japan and USA done many current studies. Bulgaria always did but either scoffed or kept secret even though one year in Olympics humiliation of every one else . Genetics play huge role just look some pros who huge but calf sucks those guys you study . Not the guys who always had big calf’s

I agree that you can overcome to a certain extent. I have gained size in my weaker body parts but I cannot change the shape. Like stated above, try all techniques and do you best. Once thing for example that I notice and people comment about is I stay super lean and although my arms are only 17.5 cold they are ripped and we all know that makes things appear WAY bigger. I think staying leaner helps hide weakness in general.

 

[ketsugo]

Totally agree none of this bulk up belly soft stuff . Leaner always looks better

My wife and I was talking about this last night. She pointed out my back is wide and shoulders thick. But biceps are ok. But not huge.
I have heard of guys doing spot injections to help developed certain areas. Does this work really?

IMO it does not. If that was the case I’d have the biggest pecs out there.

When I was power lifting thought if I injected into tris my bench would go up. Nope, but the knots that developed were painful

I am l;ucky nall my muscles have developed equally well. I can put on size quick my weakness probably be that I not as hard or solid lean as I would like. I figure diet play big role but i have tendency to bulk more than achieve lean rip look.

Probably "only" with fascial stretching oil compounds , and lots .. Synthol etc. However I have read there is a sort if localized igf response from certain compounds like test prop.., but probably not enuff to make a noticeable difference.

I believe the best way to bring up bi's is to significantly "bring up " back & other pulling moves (strength in those areas ) not volume effect.

Same with Tris, specific "focus" to those areas "and" a significant increase in Pressing moves , of course all predicated by genetic's.

I've seen some bizzare training regimen's that "elude" to
specialization for example ( doing both moves multiple times is one ) like in free time (non Gym time ) to do a few sets of intense curls , concentration curls for example while sitting at your desk, bench or bathtub /sink dips
Slow, & controlled...! Just speculating, not saying yes they work just some reads thru the years.

Devote a workout or two thru the week for "just" arms in addition to your reg split for example.

The premise, look at Iron workers, or any laborious job that heeds repetition, day in, day out.

"And" look at Santa in my AVI..! that's not from lighting that cigar over & over, it's from pickin up the slack wrapping gifts this little shits can't keep up with, lol..

Throw I a good gym session even if "not" a gym rattt & I'm sure they're arm girth is something to be reconded with
