>Calf raises are literally all you need for legs
wouldn't go as far as ALL, but if u wanna look good in shorts and already have quads and hams calves is what u need, specifically gastrocnemius, and gastrocnemius bends knee when ankle is locked in flexion
like in heelhook:

>60 / 40 triceps / chest.
no, it's 60 % lats and 30 % front delt - learn to anatomy imbecile
pecs can't be used cause they are strung along ribcage with necessarily retracted shoulders
only costal head of pec can be used somewhat effectively giving u bitch bench tits with seemingly armpit part of pec only and void in the middle and under clavicle
and triceps will be sputtering cause long head is asked to extend elbow while shoulder is being flexed and the latter it doesn't do, it does the opposite
u can expect to grow huge lats from bench not pecs
>but elbow positioning
i doesn't change much, it's dumb movement - the bench,
here, athlean X of all people:
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qBDTDrnEpSs
he says low crossover, i say ditch the other cable/rubber band, do it unilaterally and hold isometric, and while u hold isometric u protract shoulder bringing origin and attachment of pecs closer together, protract shoulder also to unglue pec from ribcage and allow yourself to work it all the way to sternum
shoulder protraction is the key to pectoralis and u aren't getting it with presses, dips, flies, nothing really except protracted shoulder crossover
>but i wanna do pecs bilaterally and don't have access to cable machine
no worries, git yourself weak workout spring, like these 1,5 foot long thingies with 2 handles and spring in the middle
>why weak, i am big and strong
u're fat and dumb, u need weak spring cause u're isolating pecs*, grab it underhand, protract shoulders all the way and squeeze that spring in in front of you, beware though, after few goes at it u might find yourself with whole lotta t-shirts that just don't fucking fit anymore :D
* and short head of biceps but alas, bend your elbows until u feel comfy doing it to avoid aggravating short head of biceps

>No but what does your picture mean? Differences between training protocols used in studies?
prolly if u're versed in this shit u will notice immediately glaring mistake/lie in it, not in a mood to dig out what bullshit is it now
u said bot that walking uphill does calves and i didn't believe u one bit
after many iterations of calf raises i tried i have stumbled upon heelhook movement in climbing and my calves never stopped growing ever since - i hook powerband on toes and corss my legs standing and bend back knee while ankle is already fully bent - cause gastrocnemius bends ankle AND KNEE at the same time, it doesn't extend knee like in calf raises
so would u believe that i overdid this isometric hold yesterday? takes trial and error to dial down intensity, there's also ankle sideways movement i am experimenting, but alas - amred with doms on gastrocnemius/calves i have started my day as usual and would u believe this shit? calves hurt ONLY when walking down stairs, not up, not on flat down stairs lol
why is that? no, u can't dispute anything u're only allowed to provide viable explanation as to why walking down stairs DOES CALF and walking up stairs DOESN'T

>>just reduce your total work by 25-50%
it's not true, u're "working" by refusing to budge to external load
when u are repping shit - even in best possible scenario where exercise does what is advertised unlike with bench - u are resting at the top and bottom of rep, time under tension is just the short jolt while u're performing the rep assuming muscle is used in full range which it almost certainly isn't
>but half reps
are retarded bot - no reps are way better, u can of course perform smal lslow motions while u're loading the muscle with continuous tension, nobody said the tension must be constant, continuous is enough :D
it was enough for this bloated retard lol:
