How do i slim down bulky kalves
Are we talking "muscle bulk" or just all around bulkier? If it's muscle bulk, your workouts are incorporating too much calf work. Meaning that you are conditioned to use more force at the pads of your feet to push off. This may just be your genetics. The only way to stop the "muscle bulking" is to cut back on the intensity of your run. Another scenario is that your muscles are finally at their potential and the cells are volumized. Inactivity makes cells flat and weak and since you've been running and jogging, you have caused the cells to revitalize and "puff up" to what they are supposed to be. If it's just all around bulkier, it may be excess water. This is more common in females. Agitation and the shock absorbing motion of the lower calf causes the tissues to swell. Swelling requires more fluid. Since water will gravitate to lower areas, these tissues will swell up. It's a great human response to shuttle fluids to areas of agitation for protection (think of a blister) or intense muscle workouts to flush out acids and keep the muscles hydrated. However, these days, we are more concerned with how things appear, rather than the prupose for why they are that way. One note of caution. If they are bulkier due to water, the longer they stay that way or the longer that the body area is subjected to activities that cause this response - the more likely it will be for the water to habitually accumulate there. So if it is muscle, you have to back down on the calf work. If it is water, eat better, intake even more water and keep your sodium (salt) intake to a minimum 1400mg per day. "Wherever salt goes, water goes. Where ever water goes, salt has to follow" (If you want to know the side effects of sodium to your body's appearance, please feel free to email me). By keeping your sodium intake low, you can prevent your body from storing excessive amounts of water which should help prevent your skin from stretching and looking puffy. Hope this helps. Have a GREAT workout!
