[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2293197, member: 365308"] You are a hero and nobody likes leg days but you get good results and will no longer need to hide skinny pins like th guys that just do bench presses and curls! Obviously more muscle = better insulin sensitivity! Have you tried free weights too ? I like to get clients to do 1) anterior e.g. quads 2) posterior e.g. ham/glutes e3) explosive move e.g. jump squats, kb swings or jump lunges 4) corrective - using a neglected part such as the adductors or abductors or calves...Free weights with good technique help your trunk get more stable whilst recruiting more muscle than just one isolated part.
