Proper exercise helps shape your legs
Reducing leg fat, especially in the thigh area, is one of the most common goals of women. However, according to fitness expert Mitsushi Ajmera, a lecturer at the Institute of Applied Health Sciences in India, fat loss in a certain area is impossible. You cant choose a place to burn fat. But you can completely build muscle, tone and shape your legs through exercise and scientific nutrition, he said.
Exercises such as squats, lunge, deadlifts, leg raises with resistance bands or machine leg presses help increase muscle mass, stimulate metabolism and support fat burning throughout the body, even at rest. In addition, aerobic exercises such as brisk walking, jumping rope, climbing stairs or cycling should be done at least 30 minutes a day to promote effective calorie burning.
Corn fiber is a natural combustion fuel. Regular strength and cardio training will help your body burn fat sustainably without having to suffer from negative fasting or exhaustion in the gym, emphasizes Ajmera.
No need to eat less, just eat properly
Nutrition plays an extremely important role in the journey to reduce leg fat. According to a study in the Journal of Obesity and Metabolism, a 300 - 500 calorie diet reduced per day can help you lose weight healthily without affecting your health.
Ajmera recommends increasing protein, green vegetables, whole foods, while avoiding sugary drinks, fast foods and late-night meals. Drinking enough water and eating on time will help control hunger, limit overeating.
For people with conditions such as arthritis, cardiovascular disease or pregnant women, experts recommend consulting a doctor before starting exercise to avoid unnecessary risks.
There is no miraculous formula for reducing leg fat just perseverance, discipline and understanding your body properly, concludes Ajmera.
