Can we really change our body positioning to better target parts of the muscle we want to grow?! 🤔
_ 

With machines being fixed planes of motion and the calves being notorious for not responding enough, most people would say unlikely...✋
_

_ 

(They are predominantly slow twitch which are the smaller, more endurance focused muscle fibres. )
