How Women Can Lose Excess Fat On Their Legs
Q.
My legs hold extra fat! What can I do to solve my problem?
A.
When women store more body fat in their thighs it can be very frustrating. However, with the right fat-burning program you can slim down and reshape your thighs and legs. I am not going to lie and say it will be very easy,but it is completely possible and you just need to focus and and be patient in the process.
First I would look and see what you current nutrition program is and see if you are eating enough protein.
Many women I find aren't eating enough protein and without this it will be very hard for you legs to get leaner...you need at least 1g of protein per pound of body weight. In some cases I have had women go up more, and this all depends on the amount of training you are doing and how your body responds.
The next thing I would do is look at your overall caloric intake. If you calories are too low, then it will be extremely hard to get your legs and thighs leaner and it will actually hold on the fat. I know that sounds counterintuitive but you need to eat enough good clean calories in order to get your legs leaner.
From there, I would look and see what type of workouts you are doing. Are you doing what I call "fat-burning workouts" this simply means doing workouts with intensity. I have specially designed workouts that help with stubborn fat in the thighs that are much better than your traditional workouts that don't get you the results that you really desire.
Another thing is cardio. I find women's legs will actually get bigger if they are doing too much and the wrong types of cardio. If you are just doing steady state cardio (walking at the same pace) then you will never reshape and lose the heaviness. The best way to get your legs leaner with cardio are intervals and HITT. This basically pushes your body and high speeds and back down for a moderate pace. The intervals can last anywhere from 10 sec.-2 min.
Keep in mind also, that it takes the lower body more time to get leaner that the upper body..so be patient.
Lastly, and most important is to focus on what you want... not what you don't want. Instead of focusing on saying "My legs are fat!"...It's better to say "My legs are getting leaner every day" That might sound very simple, yet it's very powerful as whatever you tell your mind to do it will do exactly that!
