A lot of stress is laid on the importance of cardio exercises and weights but exercises for legs are often neglected. Leg exercises are said to burn the most calories than any other part of the body and working them out means working out the biggest muscle group in the body. The best way to work out the legs according to experts is by doing exercises that are slow and tire out the muscles. Leg exercises not only make your legs look great, but they also build stamina and strength. When working out at the gym the next time, concentrate on leg workouts and do them for at least fifteen minutes per session. Here are a few leg exercises that are wonderful for the legs: Squat: Squats are the best exercises ever invented. They work out your quads, hams, glutes and calves for lean legs. To do the squat, spread your feet with shoulder length width. Squat keeping your back straight, knees over your ankles, abs squeezed tight and chest up. Hold for ten seconds and repeat three times. Medicine Ball Squat: Using a medicine ball while doing squats provides stability and reduces pressure on the joints. For this exercise, stand in front of a wall with your back facing the wall and with the medicine ball supporting your back. Stand with your feet apart and squat till you reach a 90 degree angle. Hold the pose for ten seconds. Repeat three times. Lunge: Lunges are similar to squats and use the muscles in the buttocks and legs. For the perfect lunge, with your back straight, chest high and abs squeezed in, lunge forward with your knee an inch from the ground. Hold the position for ten seconds. Repeat with the other leg. Make sure you do not bend your leg more than 90 degrees. Do a total of four reps with both legs. Bridge: A great workout for the glutes and hamstring, bridge is done by lying on the floor with your knees bent and raising the hips so that they are in line with the knees and shoulders. Hold for 25 seconds and lower hips to the ground slowly. Repeat three times.
