Exercise to lose weight, but why are thighs getting thicker and thicker? What's going on here? The following are the reasons why my thighs are getting thicker and thicker after exercise. I hope it works for you.

The reason for the thigh thickening after exercise is wrong 1: I want to see the result soon.

Many people go to exercise and expect to see their thighs become thinner after 2 weeks, but the effect of exercise is not so fast. It is reasonable to say that it takes 4-6 weeks to see the change by doing lower body muscle strength training three times a week.

Mistake 2: Bad eating habits

If you really want to change your posture, you need to adjust your diet first. Besides giving up junk food, protein, vegetables, fruits and beneficial fats are the first in your diet. Supplementing protein is especially necessary, because protein can help you strengthen muscle tissue, accelerate metabolism and burn more fat.

Mistake 3: aerobic exercise is not done enough.

If the lower body muscle exercise three times a week doesn't work, then you need to add more aerobic exercise. You can try riding a flywheel. 1 hour can burn 420-780 calories, or do aerobic exercise such as running and swimming.

Mistake 4: Ignore other leg muscles

People who usually walk, run or ride bicycles usually have thin quadriceps (front thigh muscles), but if you want to make your legs look good, don't forget to strengthen the muscles at the back and inside thighs. If the muscle training is not balanced, the hip flexors will become tighter and tighter, resulting in knee joint injury.

Mistake 5: Insufficient weight training

A beginner in weight training can use his own weight first without using equipment, but after training for a period of time, he begins to feel relaxed and even can't feel the weight, so he needs to use equipment. If it's a simple squat and lunge, he can hold an 8-pound dumbbell in each hand and gradually increase his weight.

Error 6: Wrong movement is selected.

Everyone is born with different conditions, so he needs different types of exercise. If your legs are thin and not suitable for long-distance running, long-distance running will consume more leg muscles and make your legs look more like bird feet, but you need more lower body weight training; People with short legs will appear shorter if they do too much weight-bearing training. Just use their weight to do squats and lunges.

Before we start stovepipe, let's analyze our thick leg types:

1. Muscle legs. Legs that are muscular due to exercise, if you don't exercise enough for a period of time, fat will be produced between muscles, and it is the muscular leg that hardens when stressed.

2. swollen legs. Because the body has a lot of water and heavy moisture, it can't metabolize water well, so it is prone to leg swelling.

3. Fat legs. The whole body is relatively obese, and it is easier to accumulate fat in the legs, generally the legs are fat.

The method of thinning thighs is 1. You can ride more bicycles, do aerial bicycles at home or in the gym, and remember to have bigger thighs.

2. Lie on your side with your legs raised to about 90? Do it 20 times and do it 20 times on the other side.

3. Run and climb stairs (it can also be climbing mountains, and the fatter ones must be gradual). When running, the knee bends slightly, mainly on the thigh.
