Lose Leg Fat - The Two Key Steps (Leg Workout Video)

Lose Leg Fat

Everyone wants lean, toned legs right? But how do you get there? There seems to be no easy way to make this happen. Well that ends today Ghost Rider!

Leg fat is just like most other body fat in that it is simply excess fat. In order to get rid of it, you have to manage your diet. Ugghhh! Yes…I know. But to lose leg fat, you need to reduce overall body fat. Fortunately, one of the best ways to do this involves working your legs, so as you reduce your body fat, you will also be getting toned legs.

In fact, the best exercises for burning body fat happen to be leg exercises like squats, lunges, deadlifts, and cardio exercises like jump rope and sprinting. All of which will help you lose leg fat as your legs get ripped. In fact, one of the best exercises you can do for your legs is to add three minutes of lunges to whatever exercise you are doing. Grab a medicine ball and do “walking lunges” around the gym. I started doing this three times per week and noticed improvement in overall leg definition in just a few weeks.

But, I’m getting ahead of myself. Remember, the key aspect is diet. You need a diet that creates a calorie deficit. This simply means you are burning more calories than you are eating on a daily basis. This is one of the surest ways to reduce body fat…from anywhere.

How do you burn more calories than you eat? You may be thinking that you can simply exercise more and burn more. And you would be right. However, there is a caveat. You have to exercise quite a bit more to burn more calories. 30 minutes on the treadmill barely burns the amount of calories in a soft drink. Plus, when you exercise more, you get hungrier. So you may be tempted to reward yourself with that slice of pizza, which offsets all the exercise you just did.

The solution?

A much easier way is to eat fewer calories. Disclaimer: I am not a person that advocates counting calories. If I had to count calories, I would have crashed and burned within a week. (Is that enough Top Gun quotes yet?) But you have to follow a diet that creates a calorie deficit. Learn how many calories you need to eat to lose a pound of fat a week at www.loselovehandles101.com/metabolism. Then eat fewer than that number.

So what do you eat without having to count calories?

Well, I recommend getting on a program that gives you an eating plan to follow. I followed a diet that consisted of lean protein like grilled chicken and fish, lean cuts of red meat, and veggies like grilled asparagus, zucchini, and squash. Carbs came from fruits, whole grains, and sweet potatoes. I teach you this exact eating plan in Lose Love Handles 101. Another phenomenal program that contains “done-for-you” meal plans and dozens of healthy recipes is The Diet Solution by Isabel de Los Rios. Check out this free video to learn what foods to eat and some “health” foods to avoid.

That is pretty much the secret: 1.) Eating plan that creates a calorie deficit and 2.) an exercise routine that burns calories – particularly focusing on leg exercises because these workouts burn massive calories. Follow this advice and I guarantee that you will lose leg fat. And get in great shape. And get ripped legs. And hopefully like this page on Facebook .

And I’m not above bribery. So, I offer you a workout that you can do that focuses on the exercises I mentioned above. This workout should be done no more than three days a week with at least a day of rest in between. We can call this the “Lose Leg Fat Workout” if you would like. I hope you either love it or hate it. Or both.
