We’re already past the one-third point in the Shattered! calves program. You should be noticing more size and detail in this muscle group. Make sure you’re paying full attention to your nutrition and supplementation — in addition to your workouts. Never forget that muscles don’t increase in mass only because you trained them with intensity: You have to provide the nutrients that spur growth, and those come from quality supplements such as those from Kaged Muscle® as well as from a nutrition program that provides plenty of protein, slow-digesting carbs and healthy dietary fats.
NOTES:
* This workout relies on improving your calves from all angles. As such, we’ll be performing calf presses on the leg press machine with a variety of foot positions.
* When you point your toes outward you target the inner portion of your calves; when you point your toes inward, you target the outer portion of your calves.
* Don’t forget that you can also train another body part on your calves training day—chest, shoulders or triceps. You can also add in a move for tibialis such as weighted toe raises.

TIP: Prepare all of your supplements ahead of time. You should have RE-KAGED® in your shaker so you can just add water and drink it at the end of your workout. The window for helping your muscles start to blunt catabolism and support recovery doesn’t last long. Don’t miss this vital opportunity.
