fitness What Exercise Can Make a Female Lean Up?

[ActionAce]

I discovered that I'm starting to increase in size. I need to get lean and also gain enough strength as well. I am running and jumping, but I’m not impressed with the results. I want to try more but I don't want to look unfed like someone I know. She looks too skinny, all in the name of slimming. I want mine to be moderate. Should I lift weights or do bodyweight exercises?

Yeah, it's always good to lose weight and stay fit moderately. I will advise you to mix cardio with strength training. You can try squats and push-ups. it works perfectly.

You can try deadlifts, rows and leg press like pushing a big pedal. It works like magic. You can also try core exercises like Russian twists and leg raises.

This is good advice if you want to keep size, but stay lean. You just need to be able to eat right in combination to the cardio and strength training to find that perfect look for you.

You can try deadlifts, rows and leg press like pushing a big pedal. It works like magic. You can also try core exercises like Russian twists and leg raises.

And these are the exercises that I would recommend to have a rounded-out figure.

I would add benching or pushups to the mix though. If your back becomes stronger than your chest, or your chest becomes stronger than your back, you will get out of balance and notice that your shoulders are pulled out of their natural resting position. That's why when you see the guys who bench all day, every day, they look like gorillas with a slight hunch, as they're not focusing on their back as much to pull the shoulders back upright.

I'd just add to that to do 3 sets of squats and split them with another 3 sets of squats with your toes elevated about 1.5"-2" inches to hit the hamstrings harder as opposed to the quads, which can push the butt up as they develop.

Just from my experience of training with women.

Getting a toned body is a result of right diet and the right exercise. You cannot lean up just with exercise if you are not eating right food, you cannot have a toned body if you are just dieting and not exercising.

In case you are unable to achieve the desired results, you can consult a gym coach or can join gym even if it for a short time and that will help

 

[Ashake]

You are absolutely correct. Healthy food and exercise is like a secret recipe to have healthy body. You can’t be fit and toned without both food and exercise.

Engaging in activities like running, jumping and dancing can make us thinner. We can also attempt do to exercises like yoga or karate. It works well too. I’m speaking from experience.

I completely agree with you on that! We need to take foods that are nutritious as it’s the central to good health. A take a few modifications with my meals. For instance, taking additional fruits and vegetables, can go along way.

Fruits and veggies will always help. It also helps to try taking raw veggies or half cooked. Veggies like carrots are best for our health and should be had raw.
