Childe lamented that today's boys not only have good makeup skills, but also have thin legs!

So girls really don't say that they are "as fat as pigs" because ....

Look at some girls with small faces and thin waists, but only wear long skirts and wide-leg pants because ......

In life, girls with thick legs have to face many challenges and can only say no to shorts and skirts! Because only one waist and leg can be kept.

But what hurts you is that the legs of people around you are long and thin, which makes your legs thicker.

What's more, these slender legs are all boys!

The direct heartbreaking thing is that

Legs can be regarded as cylinders, and the thickness is relative, mainly depending on the diameter and length. If the leg length can be lengthened, it can be visually (thinned), such as high heels.

But all these efforts are futile in the face of absolute leg length ... because boys are born with long legs! !

The leg length of both men and women in China is about 58% of their height. Because boys are tall, the absolute length of their legs has increased by nearly 8 cm, which is equivalent to all boys wearing a pair of high heels.

There is no hope of increase, so you can always lose weight and stovepipe?

The first step to lose weight: shut up

But as a woman, even if she consumes less calories and does a lot of exercise, she may still be fatter than men, because boys are born with a low body fat rate!

Studies have proved that women consume more fat than men during exercise, but their body fat has not decreased.

The body fat rate of girls is about 2 1%~3 1%, while that of boys is only 8%~25%, and the density of fat is lower than that of muscle and looks thicker.

Even if men and women have the same weight, boys' legs will be longer and thinner (after all, muscles don't take up space).

Gender also affects the distribution of fat, and girls' fat tends to accumulate on limbs and buttocks.

Boys don't feel lucky, because you are more likely to have visceral fat, which is easy to have a beer belly in vernacular Chinese ~

Boys will have a low body fat rate around 13~29 years old, probably in middle school, and then the fat rate will increase year by year, especially the visceral fat level, which is much higher than that of women.

Who have you seen who is fat?

For a man, even a big belly can have a pair of long legs.

Men with big bellies and women with thick legs can't escape (race also affects the distribution of fat, and Asians are more likely to accumulate visceral fat and have apple-shaped bodies than whites and blacks).

The apple figure of a man and the pear shape of a woman are both predestined.

Don't rush to despair. Although genes determine girls' leg fat, fat girls can also overcome genes through acquired efforts.

It's just that some people want to lose too much fat on their legs, and some people want to make their calf muscles look less obvious, know their stovepipe goals, and do exercises with a clear aim.

If you are dealing with excess fat in your legs, you need to do aerobic exercise for at least 30 minutes at a time, such as brisk walking or jogging.

In addition to aerobic exercise, eating corresponding foods can also help reduce leg fat and edema. You can eat more foods containing vitamin E and vitamin B, such as almonds, tofu and spinach.

Vitamin E can help to eliminate leg edema and promote blood circulation in human legs. Vitamin B can promote metabolism and drive the transformation of heat.

In addition, we should also control the intake of salt in our daily diet. Once we eat too much salt, the water in our body will accumulate, which will easily lead to edema in our legs. Proper intake of potassium-containing food can promote the discharge of salt.

To improve the muscle condition of calf, muscle stretching should be put on the agenda. Long-term stretching is helpful to the transformation of muscles from short and thick to slender. After stretching, don't forget to eat some vegetables and fruits in time and supplement trace elements.

Skinny legs can't be rushed for success. You can lose the fat in the leg in the early stage, and then lose the muscles in the leg through stretching and reasonable diet in the later stage.

Finally, having a slim figure is enviable, but you can't lose weight blindly. Anyway, health is the most important thing ~
