You can't fool me again. Calves don't grow on non-fats.

It's amazing how big calves appear to be on fats. Mind you, their muscle fibre is infused with fat molecules, so it isnt muscle at all

I'm told that the leg extension is really bad for knees, any other common machines I should avoid using at the gym?

It's good for one of your quad muscles (the middle one) so if you want that to get bigger do them. Otherwise just squat.

If you only do extensions then yea it's probably bad for your knees because of muscle imbalance

I think the calves of even an obese person would be too muscular for good marbling. That's a braising cut for sure. Ribs on the other hand would be quite delicious, I think.

Imagine it being abit further up - could just fry it on the grill, instant bacon.

Btw:
Did some extra leg stuff after squats today the way you mentioned, it gave me abit "more". Will add it consistently to my routine. Thanks for the advice. :)

Spent entire day fixing my drat brakes on the car (FYI- not having the special retard tool that Volvo uses on brakes loving sucks). Almost decided not to go to the gym but:

I had a carne asada burrito from "hole-in-the-wall in Los Angeles" for lunch and carne asada tacos from the same "hole-in-the-wall in Los Angeles" for dinner. Recovery day. Surprised at how much the 185 squats tightened up my left leg.

Life is good.

Remember that at Chipotle you can just get the burrito bowl if you're a huge loving pussy who clutches your pearls and stands on a chair like a 50s housewife at the mere mention of carbs.

What if you then end up eating the bowl? Is plastic a carb?

I got a bowl last time, and when I mumbled out double black beans and steak for the meat, he mistakenly put on pretty drat close to double steak, "just double bb plz" :grin: then I got the hot salsa on the side and just a bag of chips. I later regretted this decision cause I actually wanted a lot more of the hot sauce after I started.

If you think exercise hurts, imagine how it feels to sit on a couch for twenty years.

Seriously though - it decreases over time. Eventually you'll miss it, believe it or not.
