Workouts To Build Strong & Jacked Legs

Leg Extensions

Leg extensions are quadriceps-focused exercises. Most machines for this exercise include a seat that allows a user to put their ankles behind pads so their knees are bent more than ninety degrees. Inhale in this position, then engage your quads, exhale, and slowly raise your legs until they are parallel to the floor. Then inhale and bend your knees before repeating the movement. Increase the weight with each set to increase the exercise's challenge.

Avoid locking your knees at the top of the exercise to avoid joint damage. Keep your torso relatively straight while performing this exercise as well.
