I've never found driving a manual hard on my calves... even a little bit. Maybe just me? Or something you get used to if you drive a manual all of the time?

- bradlys 10y agoDrive a car with a very stiff and/or difficult clutch. The difference between a Honda Civic or Miata clutch and something like a Jeep is pretty wide. I've only driven a handful of manuals but I have pulled a muscle in my left leg from driving an YJ Jeep. Stop and go will wear down your leg real fast in that. Not a great feeling to be limping around a bit the rest of the next day or two. Only happened once in the 10k I drove it but my leg frequently got very tired after crawling traffic.
- beachstartup 10y agojust to add: a heavy clutch can require 50+ pounds of pressure in a sports car or a jeep/truck/etc. i would be surprised if even 5% of manual-drivers have driven a vehicle like that even once in their life.
