Will running give me sexy legs?

[Anonymous]

Which exercise will give me fantastic legs? Will running help with getting a good butt?

Ivebeen running my whole life basically and my Girlfriend is completely in love with my legs/butt ;)

Start with 2x per week for about 10 weeks, slow running at your own pace up to distances of 5km

After that start doing the same thing 3x per week for another 10 weeks.

Once you got a good basis you can start increasing distance and speed.

Don't overdo yourself in cold weather! And always try to run on gras, sand, in the woods and not on street concrete to protect your knees! Have fun!

Running will do a lot for your legs. But if you want to build even more shape, you're going to have to do squats, dead lifts, and leg press.

[MrEM4N]

Squats and lunges will be enough to do the trick. She just wants to tone her legs and you work the same muscles in a leg press as you do in a deep squat. I would only encourage leg press for people with bad backs or those want to bulk up since you can put more weight on a leg press.

I agree I was hesitant to list that because it's clearly redundant.

some people who run get really skinny, while others build lots of muscle and get thicker legs. I'm one of the latter ha ha but whether you get thick or thin it'll eventually be mostly muscle and will look good regardless. oh and yeah if you actually run and workout and not just log frlor twenty minutes sometimes then yeas you will get a nice butt haha. make sure you do some speed workouts to really get the glutes goin' lol (;

Good point! You will build muscle if you do a lot of sprint exercises and/or interval training. However, if you do a lot of long distance running, the muscle build up will be limited and fat burning is maximised.

Yes they will help! It will help give them shape :)

Running will tone your leg muscles and help you burn fat. That can help with sexy legs, but it's not everything.

[Anonymous]

Absolutely not. Running is horrible for you and will eventually make you a fat slob.

Sure, but you should add in weight training, like squats, deadlifts and lunges.
