It looks like you lose a bit of your side definition because of your tattoo. Tattoo looks good from what I can see though.

looking shredded man. what kind of stuff do you do for your calves? IMO the best way to make them grow is tons of volume with very little rest times. i read somewhere a while ago that the reason ballerinas have huge calves is because they are literally bobbing up and down on their toes repeatedly for hours at a time. i try to apply the same principle to my lifting routine and it has worked well for me.
nice tat btw*Jungle Fever Crew*

well for the last month ive been hitting them 5 times a week, doing moderately heavy weight, mostly focusing on the contraction/squeeze at the top. The volume for calves is somewhere around 10 sets of 10 in total (seated + standing)
although ive gotten lazy and havent done them recently.NCCPT, NFPT CPT

Starting Monday I'm going to be experimenting with a new strength training program
Modeled after the Russian powerlifter Alexander Faleev
Now seeing as I will not be following it to the exact details, which would encourage me to remove any assisting exercises, I will not need to change
up my training split (only re-arrange it to accomodate Deadlift 1x per week; Squat and Bench 2x per week)
Monday –heavy squat (SQ)
Tuesday –heavy benchpress (BP)
Wednesday –heavy deadlift (DL)
Thursday – light SQ
Friday –light BP
Saturday –off
Sunday –off
Code:5 x 5 Progression: For beginners, Faleev offers a straightforward progressive overload workout with 5 sets of 8 reps. Eventually you are supposed to advance to 5 x 5. In my opinion, you should go straight to 5 x 5. Sets of five are the meat and potatoes of strength training. Start with a conservative weight. If you manage five reps in all five sets, next time add 10 pounds and start over. Not 5 pounds, and definitely not 2, but 10. For reasons that are outside of the scope of this article, Malibu Ken and Barbie jumps with tiny plates are a waste of time. Most likely you will not bag all the fives on your first workout with the new weight. Perhaps you will get 5, 5, 5, 4, 3. No problem, stay with the poundage until you get all 5×5. Your second workout might be 5, 5, 5, 5, 4, and your third of fourth should get you to 5 x 5. Slap on another pair of “nickels” (5-lb. plates) and work your way up to 5 x 5 again.
In addition, just laying out the frequency of 2 bench days/ 2 squat days/ and 1 deadlift day per week will help me assure I am giving each exercise (and more importantly, my legs in general!) enough attentionNCCPT, NFPT CPT
