Quadriceps atrophy symptoms

Quadriceps atrophy is relatively unfamiliar to many people. Clinically, the inducing factors of quadriceps atrophy are quite diverse. Many people do not pay much attention to quadriceps atrophy when they have it, which is also related to the fact that its symptoms are not obvious. In addition to taking active treatment measures for problems like this, exercise in daily life is also very important, and it is also a kind of auxiliary treatment method.

1. Bone injury. People who stay in bed for a long time will experience quadriceps atrophy. Generally speaking, in order to treat quadriceps atrophy, you must first be prepared for long-term exercise. There is currently no good treatment. You can do some exercises to train your quadriceps in bed every day, for example: lie flat on the bed with your legs straight and lift them up high, and keep going until you can't hold on any longer. Do it several times a day, and over time your quadriceps will recover. You can also use other movements to exercise your quadriceps, and it is best to exercise under the guidance of a doctor.

2. As long as you do the front squat exercise seriously, the muscles near the knee will be stimulated more strongly, and the circumference will gradually increase in a gratifying way. Weightlifters who do a lot of front squats have very full thigh muscles near the knees, giving a sense of power that engulfs the knees. 3. Reasonable combination of front and back squat exercises can promote each other. Therefore, adjust your movement ratio, do more barbell, Smith rack and shoulder-support front squats, and the shape of your thighs will be improved. The place where you originally wanted to "hide your shortcomings" may become a place you are happy to "show off". The training sets are the same as the back squat. Rotating it as the first and main movement can stimulate both the upper and lower thighs.

4. Control the amount of exercise. When exercising, people often use dumbbells, sandbags, tension springs, and rubber strips. So, what weight of dumbbells and sandbags and what kind of tension springs and rubber strips should be chosen? This should be determined based on each person's muscle strength, and generally should exceed 2/3 of one's maximum muscle strength.
