First check your calf type:
There are three reasons for thick calves: first, there is too much subcutaneous fat, that is, too much calf fat; The second reason is the bone; The third is the muscle capacity of the calf, such as people who have had physical exercise or often do leg exercises.
It is particularly important to note that many MM think that the parts that can be pinched on the legs are all fat, and the calves that are difficult to pinch are thought to be muscles. Actually, they are not. Sometimes, just because the adipose tissue is greatly stretched and very close to each other, it will feel hard. Of course, it is difficult to lose a single fat cell when it is particularly large, so there is always the MM illusion that it is muscular.

Fat leg and thin leg scheme:
Judgment standard: once you pinch your leg, you can pinch out a handful of fat. It looks chubby and doesn't match its actual weight.
Key points of stovepipe: Nothing is more useful than avoiding foods with high sugar content and oil content except exercise. Eating more low-calorie foods such as seafood and vegetables, eating less snacks and doing more aerobic exercise such as running, swimming and cycling can eliminate leg fat.
General population: people who eat too much high-sugar and high-fat food but do not exercise enough. For obese calves, routine stovepipe exercises, such as aerobics, running, skipping rope, etc. , are better methods, but these methods are not suitable for MM whose legs are prone to muscle growth, and it is not advisable to sweat too much in winter, so in winter, stovepipe should choose some small aerobic exercises that can promote blood circulation and dredge meridians.
Method 1 of stovepipe: red pepper soaks feet.
Every night, soak five to ten dried red peppers in boiling water in a footbath (preferably a large and deep bucket, the water level can reach more than half of the calf) to see your tolerance. When the pepper juice comes out, add some cold water, adjust the water temperature to about 35-45 degrees, and soak your feet according to the normal procedure. Soak for half an hour, and then start rubbing the thickest part of the calf. Be sure to loosen it before going to bed. Stick to it every day.
At the same time, don't eat all the salt, the less the better. The salt intake directly determines the thickness of your thighs. Try not to let the calf exert its strength, especially climbing mountains and doing aerobics, which is simply a calf killer. At the same time, pay attention to eating less high-fat food, and the calf will definitely lose weight.
Efficacy: It can promote metabolism, strengthen internal circulation and promote calf fat metabolism. In addition, it is also very helpful for people who often suffer from insomnia.
Stovepipe method 2: Scraping stovepipe method
After taking a bath every night, apply baby oil or olive oil to the calf, and scrape the calf with a scraper (or the back of a wooden comb, a smooth spoon, etc.). ) Bend from ankle to knee and scrape 100 times on each leg.
Shave after taking a shower. You'd better drink some warm water after shaving. If you can do some air circulation or scissors exercises (that is, lie on the bed, stand up with your legs straight, try to open them to both sides, pause for a few seconds, and then close them like scissors), if you are not obese and want to lose weight, there is nothing special to pay attention to in your diet, as long as you eat less greasy and high-sugar food. If you can eat less at dinner, you can lose weight faster.
Effect: Two weeks to a month, the average person can obviously see that the leg circumference has shrunk by a circle.
Option 3: Leg liposuction
To solve the problem of fat accumulation leading to thick calves, you can also do leg liposuction, but this process will be a bit painful.
Most practices are to open a 0 on the inside of the ankle or at the popliteal fossa. 5 cm small mouth, swelling * * *, breaking and dissolving fat cells with ultrasound in vitro, and sucking out under negative pressure. According to the amount of calf fat, the operation time of two calves is generally 1. About five hours.
Surgery will suck out fat cells in the body. Compared with exercise, dieting, drug weight loss and other methods, it can significantly reduce the number of fat cells, so it will not rebound after surgery.
The cost is about 3000-4000 yuan.
Slender leg scheme for varicose vein "edema" leg
Judgement standard: It is this type that the calf muscles are pressed by hand, and the legs are thick and the skin rebounds slowly.
Key points of stovepipe: avoid fast food, vacuum food, dim sum and salty food, do not drink carbonated drinks such as cola and sprite, and keep a single action for no more than one hour. Doing some simple muscle strengthening exercises can improve edema.
Ordinary people: people who often stand or sit for a long time because of their work relationship, such as teachers, white-collar salespeople, nurses or OL people, have swollen legs because of too much water stored in their bodies or because water cannot be metabolized well. Over time, ankles will thicken and knees will get fat.
Scheme 1: 10 minute fast slimming method.
Thick legs and a thick stomach are often due to edema. If you want to deform your legs more perfectly, massage them 10 minutes before the date. After massage, let the body discharge the accumulated waste, and then use slimming cream to lift the legs high for a period of time to reduce the size by 2-3cm.
1. Touch with both hands alternately. Stick your hands and palms around your calves and touch them alternately. Do it with both hands 10 times.
2. Twist your hands. The palms of both hands are tightly wrapped around the calf muscles, and the hands are twisted for * * until the calves are all hot.
Option 2: High Leg Lifting Method
After sitting for a long time, put your legs above your heart. Before going to bed at night, you can lean your legs against the wall, or raise your legs 20 to 30 cm when you sleep. Lie on your side and support your upper body with your hands. One leg is bent and the other leg is straight. After that, the bent legs are lifted repeatedly. /kloc-turn to the other side after 0/0 times, and do the same action after changing legs.
Scheme 3: pat massage method
Massage along the lymph glands of the legs can make the lymph nodes and blood circulation of the legs smoother. And through moderate massage, you can eliminate the heaviness and edema of your legs.
Beat your hands rhythmically from bottom to top, from ankle to back of knee. After the right leg is finished, the left leg is also done.
When you decide to choose this stovepipe method, massage at least twice a week for an hour to achieve stovepipe effect. You can choose to do it while watching TV at night.
Scheme 4: Varicose socks
Long-term standing/sedentary OL, due to the accumulation of venous blood in the lower part of the leg under the action of gravity, the leg is heavy, tired or swollen, and even veins appear in severe cases. In order to maintain the beauty of the legs, you can wear elastic varicose socks. It is said that it is the secret weapon that many popular stars, such as Jolin Tsai and Big S, unanimously admire to keep beautiful legs.
Muscle-developed leg stovepipe scheme
Squeeze your calf muscles hard. If it is hard, strong and thick, it belongs to this type.
Tips for stovepipe: For muscular legs, it is necessary to appropriately reduce the anaerobic exercise that makes muscles develop, and try to use massage to eliminate muscle tension.
Ordinary people: retired athletes, people who exercise excessively, because of genetic factors, such as physical fitness, people who grow muscles when exercising. Too strong calves will greatly reduce women's femininity. However, muscular calves are also the most difficult to lose. Running, skipping rope, mountain climbing and all other activities that exercise leg muscles should be stopped. You need to soften the muscles first, and then lose the fat mixed in them.
Option 1: Flap and soften muscles.
If you want to thin your calf, you must first check whether the calf muscles are loose or tight. If the muscles are tight, it will be more difficult to lose weight. Therefore, the first leg reduction plan should start with patting the firm calf fat. On weekdays, you can sit on the ground, raise one foot to a right angle, apply slimming products that promote microcirculation, tighten skin and eliminate fat, beat your calf with your fist, or massage with your palm for 10 minute (or 200 times each). We must persist for a long time.
Option 2: Massage to relax muscles.
Rub a proper amount of massage cream (or various lubricating liquids and body oils) on the calf from bottom to top; Rubbing up and down repeatedly.
1, friction massage-after applying the emulsion, press hard with your fingers at the place with more subcutaneous fat. Concentrated massage around the knees can make the front side of the calf firm and smooth.
2, grab massage-grab subcutaneous fat with your fingers. Start from the medial and lateral centerline of the calf and continue rhythmically with a little force that can feel pain.
3, massage-grab the fat and massage with your thumb. This is a massage method with good firming effect, which is most suitable for places with thick subcutaneous fat such as calves.
Scheme 3: massage+stretching exercise
Every time you take a shower, wipe off the water droplets in the bathroom, but don't wipe them too dry. Then when the body is wet and there is steam in the bathroom, squeeze the lotion or firming cream into the palm of your hand, rub your hands slightly apart, and then apply it to your legs. Manipulation should be like massage, so that the milk after bathing can be absorbed by the skin as soon as possible. Massage with proper force.
I usually do leg press's exercise, mainly stretching my muscles. Therefore, as long as you have this function, you should do more exercise. Need to remind you that you must massage your legs after each exercise to prevent them from becoming muscle legs again.
Option 4: Skinny Leg Surgery
If you have money and are not afraid to use a knife, go to a regular hospital for stovepipe surgery. For the type with less fat and developed muscles, some hospitals use Botox to cut off some calf muscles. I remember when I came back last year, I had a stovepipe operation, which was actually a botox stovepipe injection.
Botulinum toxin can partially atrophy muscles and thin calves, but it may have an impact on the function, resulting in some people's calf strength weakening and unable to walk naturally as before. The duration of curative effect is relatively short, and it will fail within 6- 12 months. But at present, 99% of botulinum toxin in China is unapproved, which is potentially harmful.
The method of muscle cutting is not mature at present, and it is a traumatic method, which will leave scars and have a great impact on function.
Finally, we must remember to choose regular hospitals and qualified doctors!
