You ever notice some of those incredibly obese guys who are not even remotely strongman-big, they are just blubbery? And yet, their calves are immense, and while it's not all striated, it still looks like mostly muscle under thick skin. Maybe we just need to walk around the mall all day with a 200lb weight vest?
I thought i was looking at someones butt-cheek for a second.
LOLOLOLOL
yeah TG those are some srsly impressive calves
I have genetically big calves too :X but I NEVER work them... when I do sprints though they seem to be more defined.
For me my most overlooked would be...forearms&lower back. I don't work my lower back specifically because I get REALLY bad muscle spasms in my back and I aggravate my back easily. This is something I've been dealing with for 6 years I avoid hyperextensions at all costs and I have to be really careful doing big lifts.
oh and....abs. Never work them. I really should hahah
Hamstrings. Wait- hear me out. From the standpoint of functionality and knee health, how many people do you know who squat, leg press, lunge, and then do extensions on leg day, without nearly an equal volume of ham work? Chronically, overdeveloped quads in relation to hamstrings leads to an anterior tibial translation, which is hell on the ACL and knee health in general. And deads alone aren't the answer, because the short head of the biceps femoris isn't a hip extensor; it's only a knee flexor. Deads/reverse hypers/good mornings AND curls are needed to offset this, with equal or greater volume to quad dominant movements. -EK
