For women who have been sitting for a long time, many of them have the problem of fat accumulation on the inner thighs. Not only does it look fat, but it also has a bad effect on the metabolism of the buttocks over time. The meat on the inner thigh is loose and soft, but don’t panic. I recommend a few small movements to tighten the leg muscles and tighten your legs.
Why is there so much meat on the inner thigh?
1. The inner thighs are easy to be ignored: Usually people only pay attention to the flesh of the abdomen and back, but the inner thighs are easily overlooked. Relatively speaking, the frequency of use of the inner thigh is low, and the muscles of the inner thigh are not easily exercised when walking or running.
2. High body fat rate: High body fat content and a lot of fat are the main reasons for the meat on the inner thighs. Obese women tend to accumulate fat on their legs and buttocks, especially the inner thigh muscles are underdeveloped, which makes the inner thighs lose.
3. Sitting for a long time: Sitting for a long time can affect the lymphatic circulation of the lower limbs, causing body fluids to accumulate on the inner thighs, resulting in thicker thighs. In addition, incorrect walking posture, such as excessively extending the knees and shifting the center of gravity when walking, makes it easy to accumulate fat on the inner thighs.
What exercises can tighten the leg muscles?
1. Butterfly stretch
Bend your knees, bend your legs, and sit upright on the bed so that your back is straight, your eyes look forward, and your hands are on your ankles. Bend forward and gradually press down on the upper body. At the same time, the two knees are separated outwards, and the chest is slowly approaching the feet so that the inner thighs have obvious stretching and soreness. After holding on for 30 seconds, relax and recover. Start the posture and repeat it for 5-10 minutes.
2. Crescent kick
Stand with two feet wide open, as wide as the hips, arms naturally on both sides of the body, eyes looking forward, step forward with the right foot, lift the left leg as high as possible and circle it around, and then switch to the other side, Doing 10 times on each side can stretch the inner thigh muscles and improve muscle strength.
3. Bend the knees
Stand upright, with your feet 90-100 cm apart, your knees parallel to your toes, pointing at a 45-degree angle in front of you, and your hands on your thighs. Bend the left and right knees and squat down. The lower the body, the better, so that the shoulders continue to be directly above the hips, and the back should be straight. Hold for about 30 seconds. This action stretches the inner thigh and leg muscles.
Kind Tips
There is no local weight loss at all. If you want to lose the meat on the inner thighs, you should increase the amount of exercise. The amount of aerobic exercise should not be less than 30 minutes a day, persist 4~5 times a week, and the heart rate should reach 130~140 beats per minute during exercise. In addition to aerobic exercise, 2 to 3 strength training sessions are also required to increase muscle strength, improve muscle mass, and speed up fat burning. At the same time, the diet should be adjusted, especially to control cholesterol and carbohydrate intake.
