Quad and Hamstring Workouts!Bodybuilders generally divide the legs into three main muscle groups: thighs (quadriceps), hamstrings (leg biceps) and calves (soleus and gastrocnemius). The main function of the thigh is to extend the lower leg at the knee joint. The hamstrings are the direct equivelent of the arm biceps, for they flex or curl the leg toward the body. Walking or running involves the contracting and relaxing of both muscles. It is safe to say that you'll never develop size without increasing leg strength, so if you are ready to add muscle everywhere, here are some awesome workouts to help you along the way. You can incorporate these quad and hamstring workouts into your exsiting workout or supplement it into a new workout.
