Intermediate Quadriceps Exercises with Plyometric Box
The quadriceps (quads) are a group of four muscles on the front of the thigh. They allow your knee to straighten and provide stability when standing. Your quads are the most important muscle group for maintaining the ability to stand and to walk independently. It is also believed that arthritis pain can be relieved by strengthening the quadriceps muscles which takes pressure off the knees.
Plyometric Boxes increase athletic ability concerning quick movements and explosiveness. They come in a variety of different heights (12"-48") and are usually made of metal or wood. Jumping is an explosive movement that engages a lot of fast twitch muscle fibres and burns a ton of calories. Plyometric boxes are a great addition to any fitness program and a necessary tool for athletes looking for more power output in quick movements and jumping ability.
