I would love to but have to limit myself to stuff at home so nothin' fancy schmancy with barbells.
That said, I found calf raises etc done on a step with weights held in the opposing hand were pretty challenging if you go through full ROM.
OK I'm in.
what's the deal?

Viv,
You can do whatever you like. 4 sets is a minimum but you can do more. m sticking with 5 since it lasts all month.
You can do whatever you like, Standing calf raises, seated calf raises, one legged calf raises, donkeys, toe presses on the leg press or a combination of any. A minimum of 5 sets.
Me personally I will alternate each day, seated one day, standing the next.
I have uploaded my pics in OP.

Agree, calves look good plus big quads are heaps cooler than calves anyway.

Bazza you are not participating in the July calves challenge because...............??
Mostly because I would probably rather eat tofu and do cardio than work my calves.

Nope, I think a set of killer calves are pretty unbeatable. Along with arms, they are the most visible muscle out there. If they're proportionally too big, you'll still look stupid, but if they're solid and you're solid, peeps will know you're srs SOB. I think if you've got killer legs, bring those babies up to par Groar.
Which makes me wonder... who here shaves their legs/arms (men only. Women only if you DONT :-D)? I've never shaved/waxed either set of limbs.

I can honestly say in actual day to day life I have never looked at another blokes calves.
Just wear pants everywhere bro, means you can spend double time in the gym working the important parts like chest and bi's.
For the record the one bodypart that lets people know your a serious mofo is traps, only hard bastards have no neck.
This. Traps >>> calves
I have found my new motto. Well done Andy.
