I honestly prefer my own...believe it or not folks.
Got to have SOME length to the tendon imho to look proportional.
I have great size symmetry and a medium attachment that looks more attractive...the gastroc looks almost identical im just longer which looks more aesethetic to me.
I guess getting fat as **** has 1 perk lol lol lol.

Jesus they're just about as big as his quads, I think he's aiming for best calves in history award whether they dominate the rest of him or not, I mean why wouldn't you if you had the chance I sure would. He should give some of them to Victor Martinez that'll make them both more proportionate lol.
Bodybuilding is all about image not numbers, when you're up on stage your lifting stats and bodyfat % means nothing to the judges.

Best doesnt equal biggest dude....
I loved Arnies calves for instance even though many on here say he was genetically flawed for having "high" calve insertion points...
Too bad his insertion is perfectly average for a 6"1 man. Some of this is simply height.

Lol way out of proportion. I honestly don't see why everyone is so obsessed with his calves. They're huge...so what. I see extremely little definition, plus, they look rediculous because they're like the same size as his friggin thighs.Originally Posted by TJ_Strong
Strange looking lol

Pretty sure erik has among the biggest calves ever - he said in a video that him and mike (titled best calves ever) posed for a second back before he even "Really lifed" (prob refering to before gear) and his were already bigger. The photo of jay next to the other guy is flex lewis not erik.
Jay is same height more or less then him , has about 21inch calves, this guy is pushing 25 enough ****ing said.

Okay, it's a little shabby. But this shows the size difference between Eric Frankhouser, James Lewis and Jay Cutler. Comparatively.
I think i'd choose Frankhouser's.It is with people like you that this sport will never grow. "When you say, everything and anything to be pro, do you mean even to turn HOMO?...

Personally i like Jay's look better the deffinition and cuts through his look really nice i think. Although it would be cool to have those gigantic calves.

I read some posts by Frankhouser on another messageboard, and he said he only does calves once a week. Something like 3 exercises for 3 sets each. But they'd probably be mammoth even if he didn't work them at all.

He should stop working them, it throws off his whole look imho. they are out of proportion.Originally Posted by Kiwi_n00b
Neck, arms and calves should be the same, his arms and neck are no where close.
