I'm going to stretch every morning!!
I have big calves and I hate it! They never used to be like this until I started to play soccer and they got muscular.
Then I stopped, and lets just say they're not muscular anymore xDD

bikinG~~!!!!

it's easy and fun
well, your calves will get really toned, but not necessarily skinnnier.
but notheless, better than flabby ones ^^

i bike a lot in the summer (like every other day)
but just around my neighborhood for about 20 minutes, and my legs get really toned
sadly, my calves are really muscular and thick so they really won't get skinnier TT^TT

i believe the only way to get toned calves without getting muscles is to walk alot. running and jogging would make your calves bigger.

agree with this. I used to have huge thighs, as well as calves. After I got a part time job as a salesgirl, i lose some fat around that around. This was because sales job requires me to stand and get stock for customers the whole day. Climbing stairs would also help

But do beware about losing weight too fast, they could give you stretched marks like me.
So do use moisturiser and apply it on your thighs to prevent stretch marks from forming

I do an hour of tae kwon do everyday, and I'm a black belt, so the masters won't go easy on me, especially with two tournaments coming up. I hate my calves though, you can see all the muscle on them if I take a step. My friend also does tae kwon do under the same conditions but her legs are skinny =_=....... what can I do to make them less muscular without quitting tae kwon do? I guess I walk about an hour a day: I walk pretty fast in between classes, and I have a dog. Any other suggestions?

[love_pixie]

stretching...
dont' overdo the exercise thing.

muscles don't make your calves look thinner...

[sonujung]

get a clean, empty beer bottle and roll it up &down. it slims it down.

[dori_x]

i agree with everyone else who said to powerwalk ^^
because running will make them build muscle

[chiluvskk]

[justaddclouds]

[xt1naaa]

Running would make you build more muscle.
I suggest walking A LOT.
I wish i had skinnier calves. >_<

[allureex3]

i definately recommend doing YOGA.
believe it or not, it reallllly help to tone you up, especially legs and hands

[I_broke_a_nail!]

I suggest:

START PLAYING DDR ahaha. it may sound wierd, but it works ^^ trust meee =)

(and play until you are exhausted. I recommend you do it in the evening before you shower, and have nothing better to do =)

it made my calves bigger =(
but if you follow it up with some yoga... then it should be fine.

actually yeah... DDR is pretty good.
heavy mode

[PsstChii]

I walk a lot like everyday..sometime 30 mins mostly 15 mins.....I don't get it. I've been stretching every morning. I have big bucky muscles on my calves. It's nasty. It bulges up when I'm walking. I look like I have man' legs.. Even some guys has nicer legs. HAHAH.
So slow running or fast?


And if skipping helps,.. when your skipping, should you jump on your toes. would that make a difference? and should you skip fast?

haha.. thanks if anyone answer.

[MoiraElla]

WALK, RUN, SWIM, JUMP ROPE. anything that has to deal with your legs.

[babyxsophie]

Running is a good option, but run for a longer distance, pace yourself.
I remember someone posted up pictures of a speed runner (100m, 200m)'s legs, and you can see they had very big calves, compared to a distance runner.

Skipping is great I <3 to skip

[tammy_x3s_you]

stretching helps and i heard pilates works as well

[souljunkie]

Run on a machine and do yoga. ^^;;

[qutiepye4]
