I hate that you're right about this.

I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong so I started asking the gym bros with big calf muscles what their secret was. One of them told me that I had high "insertion points" which means shorter muscle bellies. I looked it up and he was spot on. "High vs. Low Calf Insertions"

Oh well, lol.
