How to run to make your calves thinner

Every girl wants perfect curves. Losing weight is a daily topic for the public. Aerobic exercise can produce results in a relatively short period of time, so many people choose running. However, most female friends are worried that running will make their calves thicker. The correct running method will not only prevent your calves from getting thicker, but can also help you lose weight. For details, please see below.

When running, if you land on the forefoot first or the entire foot at the same time, it will cause damage to the tibia and knee joint in the front of the calf, and strongly stimulate the calf muscles, causing the calf to become thicker; if your running posture is to try to land on the heel first, and then roll from the heel to the sole of the foot. Running in this way can reduce the pressure on the ankle joints and avoid injuries. When your foot lands on the ground, keep your knee slightly bent, not straightened. This will have a cushioning effect on the knee joint and stretch the calf, without strongly stimulating the calf muscles. This way of running will not make your calves thicker. When running, we need to use all our leg muscles to jump up. The front thigh muscles are mainly used for the exercise, but the calf muscles will inevitably be used. To avoid carrot legs, you can do some stretching exercises after running to relax tight muscles.

In addition to adopting the correct running posture, the weight loss method to avoid the enlargement of calves is to adopt low-intensity, rhythmic, and long-duration aerobic exercise such as jogging, which consumes sugar and fat in the body. Jogging should last at least 30 minutes and can last up to 1 to 2 hours. But the speed cannot be too fast, the heart rate must be controlled within the aerobic exercise heart rate range, and it cannot be too slow, otherwise it will not have the effect of exercise. Slow long-distance running for more than 20 minutes can not only deplete the body's glycogen, but also mobilize the body's fat. Since slow long-distance running is not very intense and will not cause the body to be overly hypoxic, it helps to burn fat and thus achieve the goal of losing weight.

To sum up, friends should pay more attention to their posture when running, so as to avoid their calves becoming thicker and causing them to give up running. Another thing to note is that everyone should remember to stretch their calves and massage them more after running. If conditions permit, you can buy some slimming cream to assist. Soon, the thick legs will disappear.
