Sooo, I have this workout and it says one exercise is donkey calf raises. There is no discription as to how I am to preform this exercise. This really confuses me because I live in the middle of a very busy city and I haven't seen a donkey for miles. I checked with the front desk to see if maybe they had one around back but the lady insisted she had no idea what I was talking about. I showed her the workout and she just said she had no idea. How does everyone else incorporate this into their workout without having a donkey? Serious answers only please.

    Find an animal shelter and volunteer to help raise an orphaned baby donkey. Altruism is great for improving your health.

    Lol. Just do standing calf raises on a step.

    Back in the day we did it on a block of wood and had another guy sitting on your back for weight resistance. Always got the stares at the gym.

    So does that mean she has a donkey I can use.. I'd really hate to call that guy. His donkey seems kind of small.

    Yeah, I don't think you'd see many results from that one. No Jodi IS the donkey! :flip:

    Hummm... Im even more confused. You say Jodi is a donkney, that man above says I can just put a guy on my shoulders instead, and another girl said she has a donkey costume which is even better. I really do not see all the connections here. I need a real professional.

    So do I have to find a donkey if I want to be ripped like you?
