Reduce calf size

songbird1973

I really want to reduce my calf size, do to it makes buying pants sometimes difficult. I do cardio at least 5 days a week that includes treadmill, elliptical, and Zumba. Running is not a option due to knee pain. Any ideas?

I know you will hear from lots and lots of people that "you cant spot reduce". However, I noticed when I started to switch up my cardio by incorporating the stationary bike (on the advanced strength training setting) and walking on the treadmill 3.5 with a 15% incline, my legs have definitely shown improvements. Maybe not in size because an over all calorie deficit will eventually help you lose all over, but my legs are showing a lot of definition. I am perfectly fine with that, they are looking better while I am slowly losing weight all over.

If your knees can handle it, I would highly recommend walking on the treadmill at whichever speed works for you (and your knees) at a high incline. It looks quite easy, but man do you get a work out from it!
