But if you neglect leg training in sports, or if you have little leg training, what impact will it have on your body? Ignoring leg training will not have a direct impact on health, but the fitness effect will be greatly reduced. Not only is it not conducive to stimulating testosterone secretion and promoting muscle growth in other parts, but it will also seriously affect the symmetry of the body because of uneven muscle distribution throughout the body. The effects of insufficient leg movement on the body are as follows:
For most people, one of the most important purposes of fitness is to build a perfect figure and improve personal image. If you neglect leg training, you will not be able to shape the perfect hip because of the lack of strong support of leg muscles.
Whether men or women, if there is no hip curve, the overall curve of the body is definitely a fly in the ointment. In addition, even if the upper body exercises well, not exercising the legs will give people a top-heavy feeling, and of course it is difficult to cultivate a figure that conforms to the public aesthetic.
For the same person, the position of the body center of gravity is fixed. In muscle training, if we only pay attention to the upper body muscle circumference and ignore the lower body training, the center of gravity of the human body will definitely move up because of uneven muscle distribution. According to the principle of physics, the higher the center of gravity, the more unstable the body is.
Unstable body when standing or exercising will make you fall more easily! Imagine that the leg muscles are weak, coupled with the shift of the center of gravity and the instability of the body, the risk of falling will definitely double. Therefore, for people who don't exercise their legs, whether they run fast or fight with others, the risk of falling will be greatly increased because of their high center of gravity and weak muscles in their hips and legs.
The largest muscle in human body is gluteus maximus, and the most powerful muscle is quadriceps femoris. Therefore, the most powerful strength of the human body is mainly concentrated in the lower body. Without hip and leg muscle training, the maximum strength of the human body will definitely be greatly limited.
Even the simplest wall-pushing action, without strong hip and leg muscles, it is difficult to exert the maximum strength of the human body only by pectoral muscles.
Under normal circumstances, human leg muscles account for 60% ~ 70% of the whole body muscles. The muscle content of human lower limbs is so high, is it equivalent to busy work for people who don't practice their legs? Because the rate of calorie consumption per unit volume of muscle is more than three times that of fat, the basal metabolic rate of human body is closely related to muscle content.
If we neglect leg exercise, it will undoubtedly seriously affect the overall content of human muscles, resulting in the inability to improve basal metabolic consumption. Obviously, people with low basal metabolic rate are more vulnerable to obesity.
Leg muscles play an important role in maintaining the stability of knee joint. If the leg muscles are weak due to lack of exercise, the risk of knee joint injury during exercise will greatly increase. For example, in the process of walking, if you are accidentally mixed by obstacles, your body will be in a very unstable state.
If the leg muscles are strong at this time, you can quickly stabilize your body and avoid falling or knee injury due to unstable center of gravity. If the leg muscles are weak, the risk of falling or injuring the knee joint will be greatly increased.
People often say that "one's old legs get old first", which has some truth. According to statistics, people who don't exercise leg muscles regularly will lose half of their leg muscles at the age of 40 and 70. Assuming that there is no obvious change in weight at the age of 40 and 70, people who lack leg exercise walk at the age of 70, which is equivalent to carrying the same weight as themselves at the age of 40.
Finally, it is necessary to explain that leg training is essential for shaping a perfect figure, maintaining good health and maintaining abundant energy.
Hello, I'm glad to answer your question. I am Sun Junxin, the instructor of Sepp's basic exercises.
There's no harm in not doing leg exercises. It's just that the muscles of the body grow in proportion. If you don't practice your legs, it will be disproportionate and unnatural. Many people don't want their legs to be too thick to wear pants, so many people will choose not to practice their legs.
However, if you are a regular fitness crowd or want to develop in fitness, it is recommended to carry out more leg training, because leg training can not only balance your body shape, but also promote the secretion of body hormones and help the synthesis of muscles in other parts. As the saying goes, men squat, women can't stand it, women squat, men can't stand it, and both of them can't stand it.
Lower limb training belongs to compound sports training, which can help the core strength of the whole and improve stability. For those who want to participate in bodybuilding competitions, the shape and separation of leg muscles also have a great influence on their performance.

As a creator in the field of fitness, I think it is necessary for me to answer this question, because I really know this aspect better, so I will briefly talk about my views here. First of all, let's talk about visual impact. If you don't practice your legs, you will look good in winter, but wearing shorts in summer will make people look uncoordinated and unattractive. If you like the bodybuilding after fitness, I suggest you put leg training on the agenda, so as to be harmonious and handsome. Let's talk about muscle function first. Leg training is generally squat, but if you want to squat without pain, you need to tighten the core. The development of core muscle group is very important for our human body. It is the most important stable part of our human body, with strong core, which can prevent low back pain well. As for stimulating hormone secretion, there is a legend on the Internet. Scientific research shows that squatting will not stimulate hormones. I can't judge this, but muscles are certain. That's my answer. I hope I can help you.
Leg training is the basic training of fitness. Because our legs naturally have the largest muscle group in the body, many people take it for granted to ignore leg strength training, which is actually a misunderstanding of many people. Why do you say that? Let's watch the fitness veterans come to you one by one. Below I share four disadvantages of not practicing legs in fitness, and take you out of the misunderstanding quickly.
