I'll be honest - I've ALWAYS had larger calves. Even at my lightest they were in the 14" range, and the smallest my thighs have EVER been is 23". I also am one of those gals who gets comments about my booty a lot (usually complementary!), so I figure they're just balancing everything out. It's just how I'm built Though, as an equestrian, it can sometimes be a PITA because it's hard to find boots and half chaps that fit both the height and the width of my calves!
But it is what it is!
I have very strong legs, from cheerleading, coaching, running, dancing,
Here's my stats:
Height 5'4"
Current Weight 135.8 lbs
Thigh at widest point 18.5"
Calf at widest point 13"
Too bad my waist isn't smaller...its still 27-28 when I'm SUCKING IN!!! Sigh...
Wow ladies, I love to see the variety in our different shapes and sizes!
I used to feel I was the only one but now that I see similar stats, I am loving my legs a little more! Thanks for participating everyone! From your profile pics, you all look great!
Body fat according to an online calculator. I had a BIA test done last fall but that was before I started lifting so I don't think that number would be accurate anymore.
I only started measuring this week due to coming to stand still with weightloss & being 3lbs off my target since having baby 5 months ago...and still not being able to get into my pre-preg jeans is depressing very depressing
Height - 5.4
Weight - 117
Bust - 32"
Waist - 27"
Hips - 36" (still 2 inches bigger than they used to be hence not fitting in my jeans!)
Mid thigh - 18.5"
If any one would like to give me exercise tips for hips, it would be much appreciated!!
Ding, I noticed on Pinterest there are a TON of thigh isolators... You should check them out :-) I am just beginning here after trying too many other things to list. I know I will never reach my college days weight, but I want to be healthy, and feel good. Pinterest has a lot of really inspiring and seemingly fun things to try. Just a suggestion!
My thighs are my nemesis. Every part of my body has shrunk down nicely and i'm seriously content or quite happy with everything BUT my thighs. They haven't budged over the last 20 lbs lost...
This thread makes me realize that a lot of women have big thighs!
I am 5'4"
139lbs
Thighs: 23
Calves: 14.5
BF: 27% (online calculator).
I know this thread was meant for women but there isn't anything wrong with "big" thighs or calves. Legs with shapely quads, hamstrings, abductors, adductors and calf muscles are hot! Back in college I had a friend who had the most beautiful set of calves yet she disliked them because she thought they were too big and defined. I kept complimenting her on them. Its too bad much of the fashion industry produces clothing with measurements that don't actually represent the majority. My athletic female friends did say they've found several that market to the athletic female, though.
i'm 5'5.5", about 129-133lbs (depending on if i'm using my home scale or work scale). according to my digital scale i'm about 23-25 body fat but i think it might be higher.
thighs at biggest part: 21"
calves at biggest part: 12.5"
