I have chunky legs. :( I've never worn shorts or a skirt. My goal is to wear shorts and a skirts next summer so I'd love to see others success photos in transforming your legs. What excercise did you find best to sculpt your legs? Thanks.

    Squats, walking, swimming, circuit training has helped me. Doesn't hurt going up and down stairs too.

    Don't have those pics with me but huge difference

    @makeoverpm - you need to do one of the following:
    1. On PC - click the icon that looks like a page with the top right hand corner folded over at the top of your reply box and select choose files or drag/drop pictures into space provided
    2. On some Mobile devices - click the icon that looks like a camera at the top of your reply box and select choose files (some will be able to see this from within the app, some have to go to the phones mobile browser and some won't see it at all)
    3. upload the image to a third party hosting site like tiny pic and paste the code provided into your reply box

    I finally figured it out. Thank you shadow2soul.

    I'm still not quite where I want to be! I've avoided shorts my whole life because I've been self conscious about my legs. I'm more accepting of myself as I get older!

    I've mainly exercised with rpm/spinning and body pump and generally eating clean with the odd blip.

    My legs are thick and muscular, which some people would call chunky, no matter what I do. The main thing that has changed is my attitude about them. Wear those short skirts with pride.
