    You can't spot reduce. The fat is going to come off where it comes off, and that will only be due to a calorie deficit.

    That being said, I'm a big fan of squats! Definitely feel my legs getting stronger which is satisfying :)

    you can't burn leg fat by doing specific exercises...you can't spot reduce. your diet is going to be overly responsible for your fat loss and that fat will come off where it may along the way. leg exercise are for building stronger legs.

    Look up "Bulgarians" on YouTube and do those. Just lifting weights, doing resistance training, burns fat. Watch your diet. But do Bulgarians. And squats, and deadlifts. And learn to do them correctly.

    Hiking for me. So many good things for your legs in hiking through the mountains.

    If stuck indoors I like walking lunges and squats best.

    Hiking. The more vertical gain the better. A lot of the 14er's here are basically a 4000 foot tall rock staircase.
