calves in agony

[Adam|Spakka]

calves are in absolute agony, not like the typical post workout soreness, feels like iv proper damaged something. anyone have any advice? did a crazy calf workout other day involving hundreds of reps and lots of sets so dunno whether its just an extreme muscle soreness or whether iv damaged something bad, having to hold onto railings and things just to walk to college and back

Possible you could have pulled. Just stretch them, do ice bath, and don't over do it next time :)

lol no idiot u'd know about it if it was. would have horrible blood bruises.

just ridiculous doms from ur ridiculous/retarded workout lol

[k or as i]

first of all if you are going to work your legs out, don't focus all your time on just the calves, work out your entire leg upper and lower also don't forget a good 15 minuets stretch before hand, it prevents stiffness and you will gradually get more flexible.

45 min - 1 hour is enough time to spend on legs do not overdue it or you will have trouble walking and sitting the next day

:facepalm: pretty sure adam knows how to do a workout on legs rofl.

Probably just over done it, like dale said, you would see visable signs if anything else.

Calves react really well to high reps and sets.

Hence we all have massive Calves from walking................................................

ohi Tom

How's ur Marine training going? Still going for it or not rly feeling it anymore?

[ph0ne]

if it's compartment syndrome, it happens if you're over doing the range of motion

"This leads to tissue death from lack of oxygenation due to the blood vessels being compressed by the raised pressure within the compartment. Compartment syndrome most often involves the forearm and lower leg"

"Another possible cause can be the use of creatine monohydrate; a history of creatine use has been linked to this condition."

Heres what I do when I have pain in the calves

Step 1: Ice bath for 30 mins

Step 2: Take a dump

Step 3: Apply feces to the sore area, rub in proportionally to create a thin brown layer on the skin

Step 4: Masturbate

Step 5: Apply the semen to the sore area, rub in proportionally to create a thin transparent/white/red/yellow layer on the skin

Bandage that shit up real tight and in 1-2 days you'll be fine.
