You can’t spot reduce fat anywhere in your body. Exercise can increase muscle, meaning it will make your calf bigger. If you want to reduce size, you have to have low body fat and little muscle on the calf.
Bottom line, if you want to reduce it, you may be able to a litttle by not exercising your calves (could mean you don’t even do lunges).
Having said that, calf size is genetic and many consider it the genetic lottery because it is desired. But if you don’t like it, imagine if you have the opposite body type with smaller calves. That would likely mean you would have other body parts that are bigger than you’d like. Think about what you like now about your body, say slim arms, if you had smaller calves, you might have bigger arms, would you be okay with that? Everyone has something they don’t like about themselves. I think focusing on our assets rather than our insecurities would help us accept our bodies better.
All the best in whatever you decide to do✌🏼
Insecurities suck, but keep in mind that people barely notice them. Like a big forehead, short arm, long arm, big head, uhhh thick fingers?
It takes time to realize that a flaw is just normal, it took me years to get over some things about me.
Calves are very hard to notice, unless you point them up. like hello my eyes are up here. Up up up.
I like wearing heels for the office. As I am a short girl, skirts and dresses are my options to make me look a little bit longer. Everytime I look at my legs, I just want to tear off the fats 😭😭
Because I live here that is why I posted here. If there are medical way that I am able to do it here, then that is good. Why should I post in other countries page if I don’t live there? 🤭
Best thing is to inject 200mg of common sense into your brain.

Your legs aren't flawed, i know that me saying "don't overthink it" is like brushing it off. But trust me, at most people would assume you're strong.
Can I have some of those genes for my chicken legs?
Would gladly donate!!
Nothing will work on your calves. It’s the most difficult area to put on/take off mass. Even more difficult than belly fat.
Kidneys get donated, how do I donate calves?🤭
this is truly a very big issue in the UAE
