How I did grow my calves from 12.2" to 13"

 Back, Legs and Calves have been my weakest part of all body parts since I started training.

My Back has been primarily weak because from the age of 12 to until joining the gym, I used to focus only on pushing movements like the overhead press, different types of pushups and some core work.

But, with increased focus on pulling movements I literally improved my back musculature a total three sixty degree from scrawny to muscular.

Coming the the leg muscles, I had strong and veiny legs but they they lacked size. So, I focused a lot on compound heavy lifting like back squats, front squats, sumo deadlifts, conventional deadlifts, romanian deadlifts, deficit deadlifts, snatch grip deadlifts, good mornings et cetera. And they grew to a great extent.

But, coming to the calves, I used to train them for 8 sets every week at the end of leg workout. And they were scrawny as hell.

And there came a time when I was so insecure to wear shorts anywhere but inside at home.
I decided to train them to failure 5 days a week with each day with different exercise and the results were immense.

My tip would be to train them till failure for every set and stretch in between the sets to break through the plateau.
