Having strong legs are the support system needed for a powerful body. Think of your legs as the foundation used when building a new house. When the base is strong, you won’t have to worry about as many issues with the rest of the house once constructed. This is especially true when it comes to weightlifting especially when heavy loads are lifted overhead. If the legs and core are weak, it becomes much harder to execute a movement like this.
With that said, it is important to add quality leg exercises to any well designed strength training program. The following list includes just a few of the more than 1400 exercises featured on the award-winning Jefit app. There are a few hundred leg exercises and here are some of our favorite broken down by equipment.
