If it is formed after years of fitness, it is almost impossible to change, because most of these calves don't pay much attention to the changes of calf muscles during fitness, do more exercise such as running, and don't stretch in time after exercise. This leg is thick because of muscle changes, not fat, so it can't be changed by reducing fat, but by shaping and fitness, but it may be more difficult.

If you don't want to form a small thick leg during exercise, you need to stop it from starting, instead of changing it after you have formed a small thick leg. Today, I will share with you some methods that can effectively prevent calf thickening during fitness!

First, stretch after exercise. Stretching after exercise is essential, especially after running, cycling and other sports with strong leg strength, we can stretch our calves by standing on tiptoe against the wall and leaning forward. When you do this, you can feel the stretching and soreness of your calf, which can not only effectively prevent the athletic calf from being thick, but also relieve the muscle soreness after exercise.

Second, sit and lift your heels. When we do stovepipe exercise, we often mistakenly choose the way of standing with our feet lifted to stovepipe. This kind of exercise can not only prevent stovepipe, but also make our calves stronger and stronger. Why? Because when we stand in lift heel, we exercise the gastrocnemius muscle on the outside of the calf, which will make our calf look stronger. However, when we sit in the lift heel, we exercise the soleus muscle inside the calf, which will make our calf look more slender.
