I get a lot of pointers from this website!!!
OH and like the lady above posted...RUN your heart out!!!!!!!0 -
I can run for a mile or so but then my right knee hurts and I am limping for a few days afterwards, which is so annoying cos I liike to run (used to hate it but was made to do it at boot camp!)
i guess I could try an knee support? I am seeing a physio tomorrow so I'll have to remember to ask him about it0 -
Yea definitely ask about that! For now do squats and lunges if your knee can support it...or even better do like 3-4 mile walks at a brisk pace and it will get your legs toned!0

Ready for this?
Stand on ONE leg. TOUCH your toes. Do this 10 times. SWITCH legs. DO three sets. DONE.
I am so going to do this - or at least attempt it without falling on my face!
Me too!
Me three! Thank you for the challenge!0 -
I am not big on the gym. I work out by riding my bike, hiking and going to the high school by my house. Use the bleachers as steps take my weight vest and dumb bells and I can get in a good workout while I'm outside enjoying the sun. Not stuck in a stuffy gym.0

There are workouts Jari Love does in Get Ripped for the inner and outer thighs on the mat. Was hoping to find a outube clip for you but can't find it.0

You'll see improvement within a month. I BET YOU!
No weights no fuss. Just gotta do it 3 times a week. Don't do it back to back or you will strain those hammy's. Watch your butt and thighs shrink.
My 10cents.
All right. I've tried it, but I've got a question.... Do you bend at the knee or at the waist?0 -

I have a recumbent bike. It tones well on high resistance.0 -

Just tried this. I kept losing balance and took a long time, but it was fun!
If I see improvement within a month, then that's fabulous.0 -
wow thanks girls some fab suggestions, loving the standing on one leg thing!
I keep seeing people mention the 30 day shred and gillian but I don't think we have that in the UK, but I bet I can google it and get it on amazon, I'm guessing they are dvd's yeah?
I feel lots more motivated already :-)
Hi Hunni, 30 day shred in uk
I got mine from play.com
There's a few of Jillian's on there.
Free post and packing as well xx0 -
if you notice olympic swimmers, you'll see they are a little soft too. your body keeps a layer of fat to help you stay warm in the water even if its a heated pool, so as long as you continue to swim youre going to have some of that. if you want to continue to swim but focus more on your legs, use a kickboard to do your laps
eh, I swam in college and this wasn't always true. I actually lost a good 30 pounds one year while swimming and my times got worse. The reason some swimmers are a little soft is because they can be, and in some cases it actually helps. I was considered "the fattest girl on the team" yet I was also "the fastest girl on the team". It wasn't keeping me fat, I just ate A TON and could be a little tubby and still be fast.0 -
I have to tell you that I am into gardening - especially with the beautiful spring weather here in NC. I worked this weekend, pull out weeks, mowing the lawn, raking. Lots of bending and pulling and I can feel it through the back of my legs and bum. Even my back muscles feel like they've worked out. I belong to a gym and love it but wanted to say that yard work/gardening has really been FANTASTIC for legs/backside and you get to be outside - bonus! Also biking with my 12 year old is fun and works those lower muscles.0
