Why do boys do leg exercises? In Lesson 6, we share three important reasons. First of all, leg training burns more calories. The leg muscles account for more than 50% of our whole body muscle groups, including the buttocks, quadriceps muscles on the front of the thighs, and the peroneal muscles on the back of the thighs. Since these muscle groups are relatively large, they require a greater supply of energy, which naturally helps us burn more calories.
Secondly, male leg training can increase male hormone levels. Two studies in the 90s and 2000 showed that heavy weight compound exercises, such as squats, bench presses, deadlifts, etc., can indeed promote the secretion of male hormones. Not only does this help with muscle growth, but it also has a combined effect on other body functions.
Thirdly, leg training can improve the quality of life. A complete set of leg training not only involves the leg muscles, but also takes core engagement to an unprecedented level. This will help enhance functionality in everyday life, such as climbing stairs, moving tables, carrying boxes, etc. Through leg training, we can cope with various movements and challenges more easily in our daily lives.
Now that we're in 2022, the skinny leg aesthetic is no longer prevalent. In modern times, leg training has become an essential part of fitness. If we don't pay attention to leg training, we will miss out on the opportunity to get in shape.
Number 6 encourages everyone to fully recognize the importance of leg training and incorporate it into their fitness routine. Not only can it promote fat burning and body building by burning more calories, but it can also increase male hormone levels, enhance functionality, and improve quality of life. Leg training is an indispensable key part of the fitness process, let's take firm steps together, train healthy and strong legs, and embrace a healthier and more confident life!
