I'm fairly active again. The injury was a little over a year ago. I do like to Oly lift and run. But my calf muscle is so slowww to grow back in size (atrophy is real 🥲).

Sorry to hear that it's still a bother 10 years later. Did you or do you get therapeutic massages to help it? I did it once midway through recovery. Wish I made it a regular thing. Maybe I will again to help with the scar tissue.

F me dude.  I’ve had a minor rupture as well as calf tear in the same leg.  Been dealing with it for 10 years now.  You have to be diligent with pt, I was not.  You have to repair and maintain the tendon in the direction of its contraction, lots of calf raises with a slow eccentric.  Stairs, machines, whatever.
