ladies legs!

6 years ago... Just before working out (never really took pics of my legs before)...



July 2011 - 5 years after lifting...

That's how my legs look, very muscular calves. But then my dad said I have "stocky" legs like him, I thought that was mean. But I have had guys compliment my legs, so that made me happier!

So your legs before were mostly muscular (and not fat) and after lifting more muscular. Unlike the previous commenter.

Before: 105 pounds but SKINNY FAT and cellulite



After: 110 pounds and work out with heavy weights! No cellulite anymore!

Awesome, awesome awesome!!! I know you mentioned heavy weights, what kind of work outs do you do to get such great results??

Great results with cellulite. There was a dry brushing thread about getting rid of cellulite and my thoughts were it may help but doing weights like this lady is the way to go.

i really want my legs to be firm at the front! they used to be and then i put on 10lbs and they're like jelly now what can i do? i'm always told squats and lunges but i really hateeeeeee doing them, anything else i can do? thanks, and all the pictures look amazing btw!

Thanks for sharing the pics ladies!! You all look great!!

For those who asked (thank you by the way for the compliment):

I work legs with heavy weights (heavy to me) 2x a week, and I do HIIT on the treadmill 2x a week (20 minutes sprinting/jogging/fast walking).

I change up my routine every 6-8 weeks, but for example this week my leg workout is:

Warmup - 2 sets of 30 reps on the leg extension machine (very light); 50 jumping jacks
3 x 8 squats (usually back, sometimes I do front) - 65lbs, 85lbs, 100lbs
(If I do squats for my first leg workout, the next time I work legs I will do deadlifts instead)
3 x 10 each leg walking lunges w/ dumbbells (20lbs each)
4 x 8 leg press (135lbs+)
3 x 10 each leg stepups w/ dumbbells (15-20lbs)
4 x 10 calves (using leg press machine)
3 x 10 plie squats with dumbbell (45-50lbs)
3 x 10 leg curls (50lbs on machine)

my legs are my most troubled area! Bump!

bump. Beautiful legs, ladies!

I don't have pictures but I ride my stationary bike at a high level and P90X Legs and Back is a killer work out for legs. No matter how many rounds of it I do it always makes me sore after which then makes me walk funny for about a week after haha. You can do it alone or add weights and you can always go higher on weights to increase intensity.

Wow, all these stories are so inspiring! You look great!!! Thanks for posting
