How can I lose more weight in my upper thighs?

[Anonymous]

Hi:) I'm 16 and I wanna lose some weight. I'm not over weight or anything but my legs are a bit muscular you could say. I play basketball and volleyball for school. But I don't know I kinda want to took it off cause I don't know if people think its gross. I kinda don't have a major issue with it but still. I'm 6ft if you can't tell. Also do you think it looks fine or gross. Please no super rude comments

It looks really fine. Why the doubt?

If you really want to lose weight, get an hour of cardiovascular exercise five days per week. Walking, running, cycling and aerobics all target the legs, and can help tone thigh muscles while you burn fat.

Add strength training to your routine at least twice per week. If you have access to a gym, the leg abductor and adductor machines will target the areas you're trying to tone. If you don't, try squats and lunges with weights. Working your glutes will also help lift the whole area.

Runing would help, and losing maybe 10 lbs with a diet along with the running.

Long distance running! I had the same'issues' but got some major changes due to running. Tthey reduced in size and are more slender. But I have been running looong distances so I don't know you'll have results if you just run like 6miles a week.
