Unflexed arms should be about the same size as unflexed calves…or so the consensus of google results say.
Sounds like you got some work to do?
“To develop your calves to their potential, you must take each rep through a complete range of motion.”
“The goal is to use the heaviest possible weight that still allows you to use a full range of motion.”
“Sometimes, I’d hold the top of reps and squeeze for four seconds.
“After I couldn’t do any more full- range reps, I’d do short, quick reps.”
- Arnold Schwarzenegger

It’s hard cheesepuff, to hold the tape measure and flex and take a picture. I’m not that good at multitasking 🤷🏾♂️

If the unflexed arm info is correct, I'm good. Otherwise I'm in the same boat, Super.

😂 good job yoh! Have it often enough and it will be easy to control. When I first went back to ice cream. I went over 3x the planned amount. But it was a half gallon size so obviously I had it the next day too. And it was easier the next day cuz I was able to equate it to my caloric intake. And now my steep deficit day. I can just eat a serving at dinner. And it’s easy to not eat it if I don’t want to.

Otb yea I would expect calves to be bigger than arms by a couple inches. Does your calves flex bigger or are they like mine where they stay the same size flexed or not 😂

Nice to know my calves are not being weird

I think anyone who used to be heavy will have larger calves. You're working them heavy on the daily when you're 250 plus. I'd wear a 50 pound vest to grow mine but I don't want to mess up my back lol.
