What exercise do I do for my jiggly fat calves!!?


Question:
they wobble alot when i walk and can someone please tell me how i can get some muscle there?

Answers:
heel raises work well. three positions will help develop your calves evenly. 1) with heels about 6" apart toes straight ahead 2) heels about 6" apart, toes pointed outward 3) toes about 6" apart toes pointed inward. if you stand on a short piece of 2x4 to extend your heels further down, this will develop your calves a bit faster as well. if you find it hard to balance you can cheat a little by using a wall or other object for balance.

running, cyciling or swimming x

Just do some running every day. Also, u can go 2 the gym and do those stepper things

the last one is good, but also try

lean forward on a counter or wall withyour hands on whichever raise your heels off the ground, and just continue to raise and lower yourheals, butkeep your toes on th ground.

use a step or something with a ledge to do calf raises. add weights (sitting or standing) and badda bing badda bang

you can stand on your tippy toes and go up and down and this helps get muscle in your calves.

Lots of walking and hiking. You can also try walking up steps but instead of putting your whole foot on the step just put the front part of your foot on the edge of the step. Kinda like your walking on your tippy toes (this is very intense).

U can use the stair stepper, running, and this weird exercise that i learned over the summer. You go to a flight of stairs and you stand on the bottom one, without lifting your toes off the ground you stand on your toes with your heels hanging off and slowly lift yourself so your heel is up in the air. Your repeat this 15-25 times and then do it with one foot 15 times and then the other for 15 times. It worked for me doing it every other day for About a month.
good luck!

Calf raises. Hold a 8-12 lb weight and keep raising your heel. Works great.

Keeping doing what you're doing walking.
I also suggest running, or to target them:
Stand and brace yourself (hold on to a chair or a shelf)against something that comes to about your waist. And just raise yourself to your tip-toes and lower yourself down.
Or run up and down the stairs on your tiptoes.
Do as many of the exercises as you want or are able to- (try to go through or past the burn, then you know it's working) =)

calf raises, but vary the way you do them. The calf muscle can be toned in alot of ways.For example, pointing your toes in or out while doing calf raises will tone different areas of your calves. Vary the exercise, by shifting your foot position, sit v. stand, and any other way you can think of..also, you can do these exercises almost everyday, as these muscles can take a beating and recover quickly.

There are so many other things to take into consideration. Your weight, body fat, how much you exercise, diet. One cannot "spot train" and focus on one area, getting rid of this requires changes to diet as well. Strength training will do wonders to help build muscle but you also need to eat healthy do get rid of the "jiggles". There are specific calf exercises you can incorporate in a training program from this website:

but again, take a look at your diet as well.
