Building leg muscle is important when it comes to increasing lower body strength.

Most fitness fans might prefer to do deadlifts, while others love to lunge.

Another way to grow leg gains is by completing the simple squat workout.

The lower body exercise builds your hamstrings, quadriceps and calves, as well as targets the glutes.

But did you know there’s a common mistake people might make when perfecting the technique?

And if you keep making the same error during the squat, it could effect how slow you build muscle.

What is your favourite leg day workout? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section below…

Leaning too far forward when doing squats could be a common mistake people mistake.

It happens when you let your knees shoot out past your toes when you do a rep.

Also it tends to occur as you put incredible pressure on the tendons, ligaments and cartilage to hold the knee in place.

And if you’re doing your squats wrong, you could end up with a knee injury.

To squat properly, start with your feet hip width apart and point your toes straight ahead or angled slightly outward.

As you squat down, your knees should travel in a straight line, in the direction that your toes are pointed.

You should be sitting through your heels in the squat position; then try wiggling your toes while you’re down.

But you must never squat so low that your thighs are lower than parallel to the ground.

Then when you stand up during the workout, press through your heels and finish with your legs straight but relaxed.

By snapping your knees will place pressure on them to send your lower back into an extreme arch.

And it’s not just leg mistakes you could be making.

According to a personal trainer, there’s a common biceps mistake you must avoid if you want explosive results fast.
