Your legs are your biggest muscle group and with strong legs comes a higher metabolism and a sleek look, who doesn’t want that, right?!
I’m a firm believer in functional fitness and our legs are what get us from point A to point B – so functionally speaking I want my legs both strong and functioning all day.
I use to lift heavy, however, I found that not being able to sit down or go to the bathroom without pain was not something I enjoyed or wanted to do anymore. So, since my legs are my base I decided to strengthen my base and be able to use it all day and for years to come! I’ve followed this leg workout for a while and it allows the right level of muscle soreness to increase strength and improve shape. enjoy!
