Reader asked: "I would like to ask how the feet can become thicker? Because I exercise my upper body and my legs look very thin (thighs and calves are all), can I give you some advice?"

  No problem! For many thin friends, they all want to make their legs thicker, at least they won't be laughed at as many as girls' legs or chopstick legs. This article will give novice friends four guidance to train their feet, so that everyone can increase the muscles of their legs as soon as possible!

  1. The four major muscle groups in the legs can be mainly divided into

  a. Glutemaximus

  b. Quadriceps

  c. Hamstick

  d.Calp muscle groups

   2. Training method

  Fitness room

   Every leg training, be sure to train the above 4 muscle groups so that the effect can be noticed. For novices, it is best to do 4 sets of each movement, with a weight of 15-12RM (that is, it is necessary to complete 12-15 movements in the correct posture, and it should be very difficult to finish 2-3 strokes). The rest time between groups is 2 minutes. Please refer to the following recommended training plan:
