After a heavy leg workout, men can't push as hard with their legs for at least two days — even though they're trained, their strength is still a little weaker.

Doing a lot of reps with lighter weights right after each other makes your legs feel way more tired right after than doing fewer reps with heavier weights.

After doing hard leg pushes, people who rest 5 minutes between sets lose much less strength than those who only rest 2 minutes.

Surprisingly, right after doing these tough leg exercises with bands, the women got stronger over the next few days—not weaker, as you might expect.

After doing hard leg pushes with 5-minute breaks, people’s muscles stay stronger and more activated afterward than after 2-minute breaks, meaning they don’t get as tired.

If you do leg exercises with your knee only slightly bent, your muscles stay strong at that angle—even right after the workout—but if you do them with your knee fully bent, your muscles get weaker at that angle and also at other angles.
