Lower body

I have quite the large lower body. Compared to my upper body, my lower body really just doesn't match. I want to have a smaller butt and also have smaller thighs, legs etc. so my question is. Will running help to get a slimmer lower body? If I run 4-5 times a will I be able to see results? Also is it possible it will not help? Will it make my thighs and legs bigger instead of helping and making them smaller? Or is it possible I just naturally have a large lower body?

    By itself, no running will not do anything. The only way to lose size is by having a deficit. Pick an activity you love to do, and do it for the physical and mental benefits.

    Why are people double posting tonight...

    Your body stores fat in your lower body that's how your body decided to do so...

    Find your TDEE and eat at a deficit, you'll have to lower down your BF% to see results
