Burn More Fat With Leg Exercises For Women

Most women will agree that while we want to be in good shape and have a great body: We definitely don’t want to look like Brock Lesnar’s twin sister. This means that we don’t want to be doing exercises and movements that are going to make our muscles large and unattractive, but rather look slim and even slightly toned. This means that there are certain leg exercises for women — and others that are best left for the men (or female bodybuilders and power lifters). Spend at the very least 30 minutes, 4 days a week to put your body into maximum fat-burning mode.

Less is more

While high repetitions are great for toning your legs and getting your heart into shape: Keep the amount of weight proportionally low to reduce unwanted muscle growth. Women have a predisposition
for building large hips and buttocks, so keep the weight low unless muscle growth is what you’re after.

Concentrated movements

Movements that involve deep concentration and create lots of burn are the best leg exercises for women. These include: leg extensions, leg curls, abductors, lunges (side and front), calf raises. Squats and leg presses are popular leg movements, but if you get too over-zealous you might be looking at a larger set of legs or bigger butt. Keep the weight low and try to do as many reps as possible — this will not only make muscle growth less of a possibility, but will increase your heart rate more to help burn fat.

Cardio machines

Elliptical, stationary bike, treadmill, stair-master, etc. All of these are great leg exercises for women and can be instrumental in strengthening and toning your lower body. You can mix cardio machines with more concentrated movements to make a great circuit training session, which will further help burn the fat off, while beautifying your body.
