How To Extract Even More Legs Workout Gains.

And for those who do like to train your legs, here are the best tips for you to extract further training gains.

1 - Start with The Squat:

First, unless you suffer from a real problem that prevents you from doing squats, you simply need to include it in your workout. Second, it must be the base.

You may think that other exercises like legpress are also effective, and if you train hard enough they will bring the same results as the squat. Well, this is not the case.


The squat is the main muscle mass builder exercise and strength that exists, and it needs to be done first in the workout while your energy levels are integers and you can get the most out of the exercise.

2- Avoid Section Repeats:

While there is a technique named "partial repetitions" (with a specific purpose) we are not referring to it here. Many people to train legs, squatting make even though the minority perform exercises using the full range of motion. In other words, partial repetitions are down just a little weight.

Only with the full range muscle is worked entirely. Partial repetitions, and deliver the partial gains can be dangerous. Squat for example, partial down manner (not drop at least until the parallel line) causes are not fully used later in the movement, placing extra stress on the knee. And as people who do squat down without properly usually put extra load (the ego), it's easy to guess why this combination is dangerous.

3 - Try changing The Length Of The Feet:

There is no single place and required that you need to put your feet do squat, squat legpress and the hack. For added strength and explosion, you should opt for a distance slightly longer than shoulder width apart and your feet pointed out slightly. However, as you progress, some variation is welcome.
From time to time, try changing the distance of the feet. Feet closer reach the outside of the quadriceps and more feet away, the inner part. This principle can be used in legpress, squats and hack.

4 - Try to change The Height Of The Feet:

Another interesting way to apply change the training is to change the height of the feet in exercises like squats and legpress the hack and that can change the way the muscles are recruited.


Basically, a lower positioning of the platform favors the quadriceps activation, whereas a higher positioning favors the activation of the posterior and glutes. You will not isolate the muscle as well, but for sure we can pay more attention to a specific area you have weakness or simply want to grow more.

5 - Try To Divide Your Leg Workout In Two:

As is common we train chest and back on separate days, you are not required to train and the legs in a single day. Develop legs is something you are interested, try to split the leg workout into two, making the quadriceps in a day and later in another.
