Even if your legs already look great you are still going to have to work on them just to keep them that way. The legs of a woman look their best when the muscles are firm and there is only a thin layer of body fat under the skin. So you are going to require a two-pronged approach to get the job done.
While many exercise programs claim they will give you perfect legs, the reality is that to obtain great results you need a program that focuses not only on the legs, but also the rest of the body, and which delivers the *right* type of exercises.So here are a couple of very important elements that your exercise program really needs to take into account if you are going to sculpt yourself a pair of smoking hot legs.
1. Strength training - Make sure that the program you choose includes strength training exercises. This is the only type of exercise that will elevate your metabolism so as to reduce excess body fat from your legs along with the rest of your body.
The muscles in your legs are the biggest in your body, and they respond well to being worked fairly intensely. On the other hand, aerobic type exercise simply does not work these muscles with enough resistance, nor through a full-enough range of movement, to make much of an impact on your metabolic rate - which is the quantity of calories (fuel) that your body is burning through every minute of the day. By raising your metabolism through strength training exercise, you will crank up your fat burning furnace. Fat is burned in the muscles, so this is where your excess fat and flab will disappear too.
2. Eat small meals - To give yourself the energy needed to be able to exercise with enough intensity to make a difference to your metabolism, it is very important that you eat enough high quality, preferably unprocessed, food. Small meals of around 300 calories in size, eaten every 2-3 hours, will not only support your exercise program, but will also help to speed up your metabolism. For best results, you should try to include around 20 -30 grams of protein at each meal.
If you find it hard to get your head around the idea of eating all this food in order to LOSE weight - tell yourself "I have to eat to lose fat". Remember, dieting doesn't work, and it is time to bury this very old-fashioned, harmful, and soul-destroying approach to running your life. Instead, keep yourself focused on the idea of burning off body fat rather than starving it off, which is never going to help build you a strong, lean and healthy body.
If you follow these proven methods to sculpt not only your lower body, but your whole body, you will have heads turning in no time at all whenever your feet hit the pavement.
