@flor92695 its about the shape of the calves, not the size. Im a dude, so trust me, just be healthy.

Calves, shoulders (deltoids) and abs are, in my opinion, the three hardest muscles to train for both men and women.
One-legged calf raises while holding on to a dumbbell or kettlebell weight will set your calves on fire.
Also, try plyometrics (explosive movement exercises), tip toe jumping etc. Playing basketball helps.
Sprinting up a hill or up flights of steps to the top of a building also will give your calves a killer workout.

Thank you! :) But one question, will this exercise make my calves smaller, or will it build big bulky muscles? :S

@paranoid788 If you can do these without weight, or with just a little weight, your calves shouldn't get too big for your liking. However, if you add dumbells, the heavier the weight you lift = bigger muscle mass.

@Lucifit See i'm trying to get my calves smaller, i definitely don't want them to get any bigger! lol so as long as i don't do the exercise with weights, my calves will get smaller? :)

@paranoid788 Well, essentially, nothing is guaranteed to make you smaller. Remember the saying: "There's no such thing as spot reduction?" Well, it's true! So, in order to get smaller calves, you'll probably need to get smaller all over. We do this successfully with diet and a complete exercise program (cardio, strength, stretching).
