What are the exercises for leg muscle atrophy?

After leg muscles atrophy, exercise can be used to prevent further atrophy. For example, by gradually increasing the weight and lifting heavy objects, you can increase the capacity of the leg muscles. During the exercise process, the small muscle groups in the legs can achieve the purpose of refore development. Generally speaking, you should gradually increase the weight of your exercise, and do it about 10 times each time until your body feels slightly tired. The entire exercise process should not be rushed.

Muscular atrophy is a common systemic immune disease in clinical practice. Among muscle atrophy diseases, the most common is muscle atrophy occurring in the calf. These patients should receive timely, regular and reasonable treatment. In addition, they also need to perform some reasonable functional exercises after treatment.

A common method of calf exercises is to complete a specified number of sets and reps with a fixed weight. The result of this kind of training is that the stimulation to the small muscles in the calf is not deep or comprehensive, and the muscles cannot be completely fatigued. Because when you do the first 2-3 sets with a fixed weight, you are exerting force on the strongest part of your muscles, which ensures that you complete the exercise with the correct posture.

However, in the subsequent exercises, the phenomenon of borrowing force will appear, and the exercise will be completed before the small muscles reach fatigue. This will not stimulate more muscle fibers, especially the stimulation of deep muscle fibers is insufficient and incomplete.

Another method of exercise is the incremental method, which is to increase the weight and reduce the number of times as the number of sets increases. By gradually increasing the weight, you continue to put more stress on the exercise area and break through the muscle's adaptability. This weight-adding method is the best choice for training large muscle groups, but it may not be effective for training calf muscles.

Because when you use the incremental method to train your calves, as the number of sets and weights increase, it becomes increasingly difficult to complete the movement. In subsequent exercises, the phenomenon of leveraging force will also appear, the movement will not be deformed, the stimulation will not be focused or the "peak contraction" will not be reached, so that some muscles will not be stimulated or the stimulation will not be deep and thorough.

The decreasing method of training the calves is an exercise method with very obvious advantages for treating leg muscle atrophy. Since this type of exercise gradually reduces the weight, it will not cause psychological pressure on the patient, and it also ensures that the patient will not be over-consumed physically. Through slow and persistent exercise plus reasonable nutritional supplements, leg muscle growth can be promoted.
