The larger the muscle groups, the higher their strength potential and the harder the exercises should be for them. A striking example of such muscle groups are the legs, in the training of which basic exercises are especially important.
However, before presenting a list of the best basic exercises for the legs, it must be said that in bodybuilding the following leg muscles are trained:
- Quadriceps
- Biceps hips
- Calf muscles
Separately, gluteal muscles can also be taken out, but experienced athletes rarely distinguish them in a separate training session.
