Guys need strong calves, these muscles are important for jumping, running and lifting. But how do you get them? Leg training. Today I'm going to show you how to do seated barbell calf raises.

How To Do Seated Barbell Calf Raises

To do this exercise, you'll need a bench and a barbell with fixed weights. Start with a warm up set. Grab a lightweight barbell (five pounds per side) and sit on the bench. Place the barbell on your thighs. Make sure that both feet are firmly on the floor. Now push your heels off the flow by flexing your ankles. Lower your feet to the floor again. Repeat this exercise for a total of ten reps.

After the warm up set, choose heavier weights and repeat the exercise for a total of thirty reps (or three sets of ten reps).

Each week increase the weights in five pound increments while maintaining the same number of sets. Do the seated barbell calf raise on a regular basis and you'll see results in a few short weeks.
