    how often do you add weight to this exercise? do you use 8-12 range?

  2. offdaheezy503 says:

    doing high reps of any leg excercise wont help you jump higher. do 10 solid calf raises with heavy weights if you fell the burn you are doing to many. then do plyometric training to attack the speed portion of jumping….. vertical jump = maximum force x velocity ( time in which you can apply full force).

    might wanna add some weight and only do like 30-40 reps, i do around 200lbs. start light and work your way up. that will get you results.

  13. LuisViIIa says:

    Use weights then. No point in doing 100 reps. Could get better results in less time and reps if you used weights.

  14. jabon9 says:

    20 reps, are you crazy? thats nothing, That doesn’t even make me feel a little itch. I do 100 of them. Btw i’m only 16 years old almost 17

    When doing calf raises; raise your calves to the count of ’1′ and lower your calves to the count of ’3′. If you have to lower and lift your calves suddenly through the range of motion, then you are carrying too much weight. Be careful, I screwed my Achilles tendon (serious injury – you don’t want to screw with your Achilles tendons) by jolting up and jolting down instead of keeping a steady range of motion, also careful that you don’t go too far down, about as much as in this video is plenty.
