Work Out
Resistance training:
1.
Squats are great for your
thighs, start doing these
standing against the wall,
place your legs apart
(shoulder width) and place
some towels between
your knees, bend down
without losing posture.
2. The leg press is performed
while seated by pushing a
weight away from the
body with the feet. It is a
compound exercise that
also involves the gluteus
and, to a lesser extent, the
hamstrings and the calves.
Overloading the machine
can result in serious injury
if
the
sled
moves
uncontrollably
towards
the trainer.
3. The deadlift is performed
by squatting down and lifting
a weight off the floor with
the hand until standing up
straight again. Grips can be
face down or opposing with
one hand down and one
hand
up,
to
prevent
dropping. Face up should not
be used because this puts
excess stress on the inner
arms. This is a compound
exercise that also involves the
gluteus, lower back, lats,
trapeziums (neck) and, to a
lesser extent, the hamstrings
and the calves. Lifting belts
are often used to help
support the lower back. The
deadlift has two common
variants,
the
Romanian
deadlift and the straight-legdeadlift. Each target the
lower back, gluteus and the
hamstrings differently.
