How can i get rid of muscle on my calves?
Ive been running and my calves are thicker than they used to be in some places. How can i get rid of the muscle so my legs can be as lean as they used to be? The track season is over so i have been less active. Would exercising less and dieting help? And are there any workouts that will not build any muscle?

Wear giant shoes to distract from your enourmous calves. Gesticulate wildly with your hands when you walk as well.

Hi,
You can’t get rid of muscle unfortunately. Try some aerobic exercises that won’t build muscle.

well, they are thicker because they needed to be- when they don’t need to be, your mass will go away- that is, if you dont maintain it

Put it this way: would you rather have fat on your calves.

Be proud of them calves!!!!! But do calf strectches, that will turn any fat into muscle, and make them stronger.

why not work out more on the weaker muscles instead of working out less on the stronger ones?

what an odd question
do long distance running
that should do it – all long distance runners have thin calves

LOWER WEIGHTS
INCREASE CARDIO-WORKOUT

stop running. your muscle will atrophy. calf size is hereditary, so you will probably will always have larger than normal calves. also, stretching and doing less explosive exercises, like track, soccer, tennis. those stop and go sports.

If you diet…you will lose fat..not muscle…if you want them to be less thick…don’t exercise that part of your body as much…but that’ll probably be impossible because you most likely practice during off season. Otherwise…embrace them..if you’re a guy…I’m sure they look great…and if you’re a girl…your legs will make dogs want to beg when you’re in stilletos…good luck.

The only way to get rid of it without grouse imagination is not to walk – not to use your legs so it will atrophy your calf muscles – but it will include all your muscles in the leg.
