Mr CW’s Top 5 reasons to embrace Leg Day…
- Maintaining thigh muscle mass as you age acts as a glycogen dump when insulin is spiked. Thus minimising the undesirable glycation of other tissues such as the brain and the arteries.
- Avoiding age-related Sarcopenia or muscle wasting, so as to then reduce frailty and fall risk.
- An intense workout with some compound exercises such as squats, deadlifts, etc can boost those highly sought after anabolic hormones like testosterone & HGH for up to 48 hours after the workout.
- The post workout feel-good chemicals and endorphins are undeniable!
- Muscle mass acts as a furnace for the body enabling you to burn calories even when at rest, hence improving metabolic function and the fat burning process.
There are many other reasons to mention also!
It’s not surprising that several recent studies are showing a strong correlation with lean thigh mass as you age and increased longevity.
So the next time you’re procrastinating about getting yourself into the gym for Leg Day, don’t think, JUST DO!!! 🤨
