How to lose leg muscle?

As a woman, you all hope to have long legs, so that you will look particularly beautiful when wearing shorts or short skirts in summer. However, many women do not pay attention to diet conditioning in their daily lives, which will lead to muscular calves. Muscular calves are the most difficult type of calves to lose weight, because muscular calves contain large muscles that feel hard. So how should muscular calves be reduced?

1. Identification method:

If you pinch it with your hands, you will find that any part of your body that can be pinched is fat, no matter how soft or hard it is. Think about it, muscles are strong and resilient structures that wrap around the bones of the body and support the movement of the limbs. How can they be pinched by hands? If what you pinch is really muscle, then the pinched area must be very painful. It would be very painful if you twist your foot. Moreover, you are pinching muscles, and it is impossible for muscles to be pinched by hands at once.

Many girls think that their thighs and calves are hard when pinched, and they are muscles. But they are not. It is just that the fat communities are stretched out and packed very tightly together, so they feel hard.

2. Principle of muscle formation:

Muscles remove water, and 80% of their composition is composed of protein. Therefore, to build muscle, you must supplement protein. Similarly, if you want to lose muscle, you must first reduce the intake of protein foods.

3. Detailed operation method:

First of all, you need to lose weight on the basis of low body fat content, and then stop eating all meat, because the main component of muscle is protein, in order to lose muscle, you must limit the source of protein. But don't give up protein completely, you can replace rice with milk, eggs, etc.

Then do calf muscle exercises with light weights and repeated repetitions to wear down the muscles. You can do 50 heel raises (standing on tiptoes, lifting and lowering your heels) in a set, 3 to 5 sets every day.

After finishing, you should do exercises to stretch your calf muscles, which is to hook your toes back, or do the leg stretching exercises in yoga, which can also stretch your calf muscles. After finishing all the exercises, you should stand up and pat your calves with your hands to enhance blood circulation in the calf area. If conditions permit, you can soak your calves in hot water to eliminate the damage to the calf muscles.

Because muscular calves are very difficult to lose weight, if you are determined to lose weight you must persist in the long term. Only by persevering can you see the effect of weight loss.
