Leg / Thigh toning question

I have a plan to tone up my legs, since I have a pear shape, and god knows, I hate my legs. lmao.

so heres what I do ATLEAST once a day, if not twice.

First - Get on my hands and knees and kick one leg out and bring it back in, like anywhere from 50-100 times. repeat for next leg.

Second- stretches.

Third- repeat # 1.

Fourth - Cross legs, bend one knee, and pull knee towards opposite shoulder & hold for thirty secs. Do this for both legs.

Fifth - Lift body into air using hands and legs, like in crab position, move up and down, and hold when up, bend knees when going down. do this ten times.

It sounds like a lot, but it only takes around 20 minutes.

If I do this atleast once a day, will my legs/thighs be more toned? how long do you think this will take?

Answer #1

jump rope for an hour. it works wonders!

Answer #2

Honestly, I have no idea. I do know that your legs will get stronger from any leg strengthening exercise. However, if you have fat on your legs you need to do cardio. Simply getting the muscles isn’t going to make the fat disappear. I promise if you do that and run or swim or whatever it is you like, you will see results. I also might suggest ab exercises and arm exercises. Spot treating is the slowest way to get where you want to be. Hope I helped =]

Answer #3

also try lunges, they work wonders.

start off going as far as you feel you can, and do it like 3/4 times a week. Every week make the distance longer, I would suggest doing it at your schools track because people won’t think your odd. also do squats. and if youve ever played leap frog do jumps like that and land in one spot witout moving. You can also do a step, squat, step sequence to the side (not walking forward, but to the side) don’t do short distance squat. make them farther apart, but not too far.

you’ll be in a lot of pain, but it should be worth it. :)

Answer #4

look up glamour magazine and womens health magazine, they are both great for toning you up and giving you an eating plan to keep it that way.

Answer #5

It sounds like your plan will help tone your legs. Other effective leg toning exercises are swimming, running and cycling. Also eat healthily.
