Power Up Your Stagnant Leg Muscles

I think many weightlifters would agree that leg muscles in general are the toughest muscles to develop. Mainly because we’re walking on them all day and they’re already experiencing a good amount of contraction. So, it takes quite a bit of shock and variation to see significant growth.

MensHealth.com has highlighted a few tips that can be applied to your leg workouts that may jumpstart growth. These tips focus on a few adjustments to standard leg exercises that allow for better form and in turn, bigger gains. Personally, I’ve had some moderate success in training calves and quadriceps by performing about 4 sets of high repititions (20-25) using minimal weight.

The thing about muscle building is that there is not just one way to be successful, that’s why I’m curious as to how other people have found success with building leg muscles.
