Let's talk about legs, their importance and their impotence at times...
Good stuff - easy to strengthen, easy to stretch, and burn a lot of calories when they're in shape.
Bad stuff - weak or tight muscles can lead to imbalance, back pain, and more susceptible to injury.
To help them "do their thing" we need to ensure that we work to strengthen, stretch and use these large muscles.
Do stairs, as slowly as you need to.
Walk, or run if that's your thing.
Work the outsides and insides squeezes and lifts, get it all.
Stretch em' all, quads (the ones on the front) being too tight can lead to swayback and lower back pain.
hams (back ones) can cause hip pain and a greater chance for displacement.
glutes and other bottom ones can lead to sciatica, hip pain and radiating pain to the groin.
Do our thing, so they can do their thing for us!
