Does anyone have any exercises to reduce calf size?

    Damn, I've been eating less and running on the treadmill and my calf measurement has gone up! I know it's muscle but still - shrink!!

    Oh how I wish spot reduction was possible but unfortunately the only thing that will help is losing weight and even then you might be like me and be cursed with the inability to wear high boots due to stupid big calves.


    Totally not bitter about it.... :-p

    We'll just have to have them custom made.

    I am eating less, losing weight and doing cardio at least 3-4 times a week. I feel like my calves are bigger. I can tell that my legs are smaller in size now but my calves look huge compared to before. Muscle? Or just comparison to how big my thighs USED to be?

    At first mine got bigger. As I lost more and more weight they got smaller. I was pretty surprised. I didn't think there was any changing them. My shoe size even decreased by a half size. Seriously? Yes. Meaning I was truly packing fat THROUGHOUT my body, even on my calves and my feet? Kind of embarrassing. Kind of a relief to lose. Who knew? It's leveled off now of course, but was an odd place to lose inches.

    Overall weight loss will show all over -- spot reduction is impossible. Take it from an old lady -- you gotta learn to love your big calves. They'll get smaller as the rest of you does, but will stay the same in overall proportion to the rest of your body. Nothing to be done about it.
