What is "quad"?

The quad refers to the quadriceps muscle group in the front of the thigh. Comprised of four individual muscles, including the rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, and vastus intermedius, the quad plays a key role in extending the leg at the knee joint. It is responsible for movements such as kicking, running, jumping, and squatting. The quad muscles are powerful and contribute to overall lower limb strength and stability. Maintaining strong and conditioned quads is important for various physical activities and functional mobility.
