I have quite big thighs and calves whenever i flex it or wear heels and was wondering what type of exercise could I do for making it slimmer. I was thinking of going jogging but won't it build more muscle? and make it bigger:/ ? Advice, anyone? Thanks

    I just want to let you know that I am in the same boat as you. My thighs are bigger and my calves are quite large and muscular. I hate to say it but, your calves will only get bigger with working out. Love your calves, bigger calves are a lot sexier, and guys love them!

    You can gain muscle mass in your thighs by following a rigorous resistance-training program using free weights. Lifting weights helps promote hypertrophy, or muscle growth, by introducing stress to targeted muscles during the resistance training. Use compound, heavy movements like squats and leg presses to recruit multiple muscle groups and increase muscle mass in your legs.

    Jogging is great for your heart but doesn't do much for muscle-building, so it shouldn't bulk up your legs. Ironically, if you want to slim your thighs, leg-strengthening exercises may help. Your quads are huge muscles, and muscles are the key to fat-burning. By strengthening large muscles like your quads, you'll actually see a slimming effect all over. You can also create balance by strengthening your upper body. Our body type exercises article has more helpful expert tips about which workouts will be best for you.
