Dealing
with Fat Thighs
The main reason why
women have fat thighs, fat hips or a fat
butt is because of what they eat. Normally
women store fat on the lower part of their
body in order to protect their reproductive
organs. Thus, after menopause, when they are
no longer able to reproduce, the weight
distribution changes and fat is then
accumulated above the waist - just like men.
Secondly this phenomenon is also hereditary
and depends largely upon the genes.
A Few Facts About Fat Thighs
- There are NO
special 'hip and thigh' diets, which can
reduce, fat from your hips and thighs.
The ONLY way to get back in shape is to
follow a proper balanced diet.
- There is NO
exercise, which can reduce, fat from a
specific area of your body like your
hips, thighs or butt. All that exercises
can do is try to maintain your figure
once you have reduced the fat deposit by
eating sensible weight loss diet.
- Exercise can
improve the shape of a particular part
of your body, by tightening muscles, but
it can't reduce the fat in these areas.
The only way to lose fat off your
thighs, hips & butt is by changing
your eating habits
- Although each of us
has a unique bone structure and basic
body shape, which we can't change, we
can change our weight and fat. All you
have to do is be patient and follow a
sensible diet, which is a balanced
low-fat eating-plan, which is high in
vegetables, fruit, and other complex
carbohydrates, and LOW in fat.
Exercise for Fat
Thighs
- To exercise thighs
& butt
1. Stand with feet apart, toes pointed
outwards, and hands on the outside of
your thighs. Keeping your back straight,
at right angles to the floor, bend knees
and allow your hands to slide down your
thighs until they reach your knees.
(Keep back straight!) Hold your knees
for a count of 5, and then slowly return
to start position. Repeat 10-20 times.
2. Stand with feet slightly apart.
Stretch your arms straight out ahead of
you. Slowly bend your knees, until your
thighs are roughly parallel with the
floor. Slowly raise yourself back to the
starting position. The slower you do
this, the better. Start with 10 real
slow ones. But please don't strain
yourself. Go at your own pace.
- To exercise the
inside of your thighs
Sit down on the floor in front of an
ordinary straight back chair. Stretch
your legs straight out in front of you,
with your feet on either side of the
chair. Keeping your back straight, place
your palms on the floor on either side
of you. Clasp the legs of the chair with
the soles of your feet as though trying
to push both chair legs together. Press
hard and hold for a count of 50.
- To exercise the
back of your thighs
Stand with feet apart. Bend forward from
the waist. Reach to your right with both
hands and clasp your ankle with both
hands. Push your upper body downwards
towards the floor. Count to 20. Return
to start position and repeat exercise on
the left-hand side.
- To exercise the
front of your thighs
Kneel upright on the floor, with knees
together. Lean backwards and clasp your
right ankle with your left hand. Do not
sit on your ankles. Hold this position
for a count of 20. Return to start
position and repeat exercise on the
left-hand side.
