Running is a way to work muscles other than the legs and arms.
In the sprint, the quadriceps, biceps femoris (thigh), gastrocnemius, soleus (calf), gluteus, core (lumbar abdomen), and back muscles are heavily involved. Especially the back muscles. You go and look at any of the top players in the world, they have very good back muscles.
On the contrary, the arm does not play much of a role.
Running does work the back, waist, and abdomen, but if you want to gain muscle growth through running, this is a bit of a mispositioning.
And the previous one is talking about sprinting (within 400 meters), not long-distance running. Long-distance running focuses more on improving the cardiorespiratory capacity.
If you're running to work on these areas, it's better to go straight to strength training.

If you want to build muscle, you can do more strength training, such as bench presses, curls, push-ups, pull-ups, etc., which can build muscles.

1) Half squat with weights. Stand upright with your legs shoulder-width apart. Place a gym stick on your shoulders in both hands (if you don't have one, you can cross your hands over your chest).
Then squat down until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Repeat this movement 3 sets of 20 times. 2) Lunge squat.
Stand upright with your right foot in front and your left foot in the back. The knee of the left leg is slightly bent. Then do the squat, taking care to maintain your balance as you squat.
Repeat 3 sets of 20 reps on each side. 3) Stretching movements. Stand upright with your legs together, then pull your left ankle with your left hand as close to your hip as possible and hold this position for 15 seconds, then switch to the other leg.
Stretching the legs is very important to prevent the legs from getting thicker after the workout and make the legs smooth. 4) Lie on your back and split your legs. Lie flat on the floor with your back against the floor.
Lift your legs together and upwards at a 90-degree angle to your upper body. Then spread your legs apart as much as possible and close them together, repeating this movement for 3 sets of 30 times. 5) Sit the ball.
Sit on the floor with your hands behind your body and your upper body leaning back slightly. Bend your legs, hold a ball between your knees, squeeze it inward until you are exhausted, and let go. Repeat this movement 3 sets of 20 reps.
6) Weight-bearing calf raises. You can do this movement with your bare hands or with 3 5lb dumbbells in your hands. On tiptoe, hold on top for 2 seconds, feel the calf muscles straining, and then let go.
Repeat this movement 3 sets of 30 times. Be sure to massage your calves and stretch afterwards.

Article guide Muscle exercise is not only for us people to be more beautiful, but also for health is also very good, many friends do not know how to exercise the muscles of the legs, so with the help of this opportunity, I will share some exercise methods for you, let's see! The leg muscles include the thigh muscles and the calf muscles. The thigh is divided into three muscle groups: anterolateral, posterior, and medial.
The calf muscles are also divided into anterior, posterior, and lateral groups. Among them, the quadriceps muscles of the anterior and external thigh muscles, the biceps femoris of the posterior thigh group (posterior femoris muscles), and the posterior calf muscles'The triceps calf muscle is the most important and main muscle of the leg muscles. 1. Quadriceps (1) Sitting horizontal leg press:
Warm-up exercises before high-intensity squats, safe and reliable. (2) Reclining weight-bearing leg press: It is a classic action of quadriceps concentrated training, squat due to the high pressure on the waist when squatting, and the reclining weight-bearing leg press can avoid this shortcoming, so it can be used to impact large weights.
3) Barbell squat: It is a traditional squat action, compared with the front neck barbell squat, the back of the neck squat bears a lot of weight and is safer; It can develop both the quadriceps muscles and the gluteal muscles, so it is the first choice for ordinary people. (4) Smith Squat:
The trajectory of the vertical plane of the body during the exercise of the smith machine squat is fixed by the smith machine, which is relatively safe. (5) Hack squat: It is one of the best movements for leg strength training, and it is a squat with fixed equipment like the smith machine squat.
6) Seated leg flexion and extension: It is ideal for sculpting the shape and line of the quadriceps muscles, through which the muscle lines on the front of the thigh will be clearer. (7) lunge squat:
The lunge squat can be done with both barbells and dumbbells, and is a comprehensive exercise. 2. Biceps femoris (1) Prone leg curl: It is the best isolated action to exercise biceps femoris.
2) Seated leg curl: It is an isolated movement to exercise the biceps femoris, and professional athletes use this exercise before the competition to pull out the biceps femoris like a "wire rope". (3) Standing leg curl:
The leg curl, which can only be done on one foot, is an isolated movement that exercises the biceps femoris muscles and requires specific equipment to complete. (4) Straight leg deadlift: It is a comprehensive exercise, which can make the biceps femoris reach the limit of extension.
