Why You MUST Build Quads In Order To Get Big
Why For All Over Strength And Mass Gains You HAVE To Build Quads
Leg Training: you either love it or hate it. It seems opinion is split down the middle between those that excitedly look forward to legs Days and those of us that would rather go ten rounds with Tyson rather than spend an hour doing Squats and Lunges strengthening Quadriceps and building those Hams up.
If You Dont Train Legs Your Sabotaging Your Progress: Neglecting to train Legs, specifically failing to build Quads puts you at a massive disadvantage against people that do channel the required effort towards this vital muscle group.
What Are The Benefits Of Training Legs Intensively? The Legs are the bodies single largest muscles and with the correct training will lead to all over muscle gains. Thats right, its worth repeating: I said All Over Muscle Gains. Why? Because hardcore training releases a massive amount of HGH and Testosterone into the body which keeps you in an anabolic (growing) state. If you can channel the necessary focus and mental resilience to build Quads effectively it is one of the most beneficial Bodybuilding activities you can do.
Why People Fail To Build Quads and Hams: There are usually three common reasons why people neglect to Build Quads and Hams appropriately. The first reason is because The Legs are hardly a show muscle. Unlike Chest and Biceps who everybody loves training, you are as likely to meet someone down the Gym who is as concerned about Training Legs as much as you are likely to meet a double lottery winner. (Hardcore Bodybuilders and competition athletes notwithstanding)
The second reason is for the sheer fact that training legs is the single most demanding of all bodyparts. To build Quads and Hams that ripple with muscularity you will have to push limits. They are painful and even nauseating to train heavy. Yet you must push yourself through the pain barrier in order to reap the benefits.
Thirdly, a lack of education stops people from training Legs. If more people realized that you are practically UNABLE to get huge without building Legs first then opinions would shift instantly. Legs are the foundation which all consequent gains are built from. Because the Squats that we use to build Quads releases so much growth hormone, I have actually seen people make better ALL OVER strength and muscle gains in 6 weeks just from training Legs appropriately than they made in the previous 3 or 4 months!
If that isnt reason enough to get serious over your leg work and educate yourself around how to Build Quads and Hams then I dont know what is!
So get yourself under that Barbell and get down to business. Reaping the benefits of great all over strength and muscle gains and a pair of Legs you can be proud of!
