Realistically speaking, practically nobody looks forward to leg day.  Just ask almost any bodybuilder to rank the body’s muscle from least favourite to most favourite to work, and there is a good chance that you will see legs appearing at the bottom of a majority of lists.  Honestly, you don’t see people too often complementing each other on their legs.  In addition to that, a majority of the time they’re completely covered and hidden away from sight.  As a result it is very easy finding an excuse to either do them half-heartedly or to neglect them.

However, if you would like to accomplish a balanced appearance and avoid looking silly with big arms and wide chest along with matchsticks rather than legs, then it is very important for you to pay close attention to all of the various parts of your body.  If you build strong legs, it will send an increased amount of testosterone throughout your bloodstream as well as help to enhance your overall physique.  That is why we have 4 tips to help you build very strong quads.  So let’s get started now. 

4 Simple Ways To Build Huge Quads

1.  20 Rep Squats

Your body’s largest muscle group is your quads.  They are able to endure a heavy amount of strain.  That is why bodybuilders as well as power lifters both recommend that you perform 20-rep sets of squats.  They target your quads with brute force and laser precision, and send your testosterone production spiking through the roof.  In addition, if can get the entire 20 rep set completed, you can handle just about anything. 

2.  Be Familiar With Your Machine Exercises

Although there are machine exercises that seem similar, they don’t all target the exact same muscles.  For example, the leg press and hack squat.  Although the quads are the focus of the leg press, due to bending your knees even further, your lower quads are the target of hack squats.  Becoming familiar with which muscles are targeted by which machine can help you with making wise choices, hitting muscles from various angles, and therefore stimulating their growth overall. 

3.  Pay Close Attention To Your Hamstrings

It is just as important to develop your hamstrings if you would like to avoid injuries and have your legs have a balanced appearance.  It will help you as well when you want to perform squats.  The best exercises for hitting your hamstrings are the stiff-leg deadifts and leg curls.  When fused into a superset, they are the best exercises for working your hamstrings. 

4.  Go Easy On Your Leg Extensions

One of the most popular machines among beginners is the leg extension machine, since it is an easier exercise to do than other deadlifts or squats.  However, if you would like to add some mass, then leg extensions really won’t do the job. 

That doesn’t  mean you should completely give them up.  You just don’t want them to be your main focus.  After finishing your multi-joint exercises, you can perform some leg extensions, but don’t ever substitute them for squats.
