    Hey Joe,

    Ive been struggling putting on size and strength in my calves since I began training.

    Strangely though, I always feel a low-level DOMS type sensation in my calves – regardless of training frequency (I’ve tried a week off training them) or intensity, so recovery may not be the issue.

    My ankles are admittedly tight, especially
    dorsiflexion. Any ideas/thoughts?

    Thanks

    Thanks Joe, I’ll have a look at your calf specialisation programme and experiment with BFR for recovery…when I can finally get in a gym! Thanks again
