What do you do when your legs don't grow?

Leg training is one of the most important parts of any bodybuilder's training plan. The legs are the largest muscle group in the human body, so there's no mention of muscle mass at all without well-developed leg muscles.

1. Proper training of the leg muscles

Leg muscles are the weakest trained muscle group besides the stabilizing muscles. Leg muscle exercises performed by gymnasts are schematic, they don't take into account the proper technique. These people for various reasons do not care about well-developed leg muscles. but in the gym we also meet people who care about the well-done leg muscle. Not without reason there are legends about people who vomited during or after leg training, etc. In order to break stagnation.

2. Leg workouts Lack of basic leg training exercises

A standard set of exercises on the leg muscles, i.e. taking into account the seats, steps, straights, can be considered to be aimed at the development of the quadriplegic muscles. Okay, when there are sometimes bends on the machine and heights or pressure of the pelvis. This set can be checked, but it's schematic and it doesn't take into account many important aspects that lead to later stagnation.

3. The muscles of the sternum anatomy, function, exercise, training parameters

We will briefly begin with the group of muscles that make up the largest and strongest muscles in the human body. These are the spinal muscles, which primarily build the greater spinal muscle. These muscles connect our cartilage to the legs and the pelvis. Because of their central location, they are involved in many activities. The spine muscles play a major role in squatting and squatting, but they stabilize the spine. The above facts show that these muscles are very important for our body, but at the moment you are performing other exercises that involve squatting but not squatting.

4. The muscles of the pelvis, the anatomy, the function, the exercise, the training parameters

There are two muscles in the back of the thigh: the pelvic floor muscles, however, and these are all muscles: the double-headed thigh, the semicircular thigh, and the half-thigh muscles. The bicuspid muscle is located in the outer portion of the leg, while the other muscles build the back from the inner portion.

5. The quadriceps are anatomy, function, exercise, training parameters

The most well-known group of leg muscles is the quadriceps muscle. If a person has a weak lower back and lower back, his or her lower back is weak in terms of strength, structure, width and possibly technique, and the head of the leg is simple. The matter is simple one should perform one-sided sitting and exercises. However, performing a sitting without exercising the aforementioned muscles will not help to overcome stagnation. If someone has weak pelvic floor muscles the lower back wall, his/her lower back has weakness in strength, this is structural and probably technical and the side muscles must have weaknesses, so that they will not perform their function and will be compensated for the secondary or secondary burden.

6. The muscles are divided

As for the pelvis, you'll find most of the information you need in the pelvic floor exercise article. And I can add that a great way to break the stagnation of pelvic muscles is to activate them before exercise.

7. Complete training or necessary?

If someone ignores the above exercises, the muscle function will be impaired and it's possible that the motion machine won't be 100% functional. And how does that affect the figure? The impaired muscles will not be able to do the work, so they'll be burdened by other muscles or structures that weren't designed for these movements (but they have to help).

8. Training parameters

When designing any training plan, the most important thing is the choice of exercises and training parameters. The choice of exercise has been briefly described in the previous sections of the article. However, the aspect of training parametres should be approximated. The training parameter is the number of repetitions, the number, the series, the tempo, the time under tension (TUT), the break time, the amount of exercise in the training unit and the amount in the weekly microcycle, which is the volume, but the intensity and frequency. Here, however, the issue is complicated because the exercise parameters are influenced by variables such as muscle group, muscle morphology that exercise, phase, degree of exercise, and goal of progress of each person.
