Answer 1

At 13 you will still be skinny no matter what you do. Guys start to have build at 18 -24 and belly after that. You can only tone for now and just strengthen it by doing squats

Answer 2

standing calf raise do 50 to 100 in a row

do skipping it will strengthen your calf muscle and forearms

otherwise do these for strong lower body

squat

leg press

leg extension

leg curl

Answer 3

Ok when you work a muscle constantly it will need time to rest to get bigger and stronger however if your constantly using a muscle like your legs for distance and soccer it won't get bigger it will develop alot of muscle endurance but not strength jus look at marathon runners hardly any muscle on their legs but they can run forever so i think its either get calves or do your thing with the distance and soccer thing.

Answer 4

First do you have a bike ???

If you do you should cycle twice a day for at least 20 mins a and over time you'll see a change in the size of your calves.

hope this helped.

Answer 5
