And all I am saying is unless you walk like a fairy on tippy toes, your calves contract maybe 30 % or so. Not considered a rep. Its like drinking beer, by picking up a pint and taking it to your mouth does not constitute a bicep curl.

Some people do high reps to get a good burn/pump. To each his/her on, everybody's body responds differently.
