The only exercise i enjoy is jogging in the morning. But somehow, it gives me a bulky muscular calves that just don't look nice. I was just wondering if there is any way to have leaner calves without undergoing surgical procedure.

Hi Aby Wu,

Distance running favors the development of slow-twitch muscles which are not large, doing sprints or short intensive bursts of running can increase the size of your leg muscles.

 

Sometimes genetics can also play a role, Trying to lose the muscle in your calves won't be easy.  You might want to consider, not jogging or working out your calves for awhile.  It might be good to work out the upper legs to get a better definition on top.
