FinanceTips For Stronger Legs
Msn has an interesting article about strengthening your legs. It’s all in the hips. That’s where the power comes from. The trouble with most exercise machines, like the ones for leg curls and leg extensions, is that they work your hamstrings or quadriceps from a fixed position, so they ignore your hips and the rest of your lower body.
So how do you correct this? Well, you need to increase stability through your hips and strengthen your gluteus medius muscles. After your leg routine, make sure you stretch your hip flexors. If they’re tight your hips can’t go through a full range of motion, and your legs can’t reach their full potential. After stretching, do two sets of 15 reps of the exercises that they suggest on each leg.
It’s good advice. It’s all in the hips, so treat them right.
