How to Slim Thighs and Reduce Cellulite
Here’s how to slim thighs down and help diminish ugly, nasty cellulite. It’s a lot easier than you thought. I’m going to show you how to do this without it becoming a time burden on you since I’m sure you’re busy and have a lot of other things you’d like to be doing besides exercising.
How to Slim Thighs
1. Slide your legs on a foam roller
This exercise is for your cellulite. Buy a foam roller from Wal-Mart or your local sporting goods store. It’ll cost less than $10. Put it on the floor at your house. While you are in shorts, push and pull your legs along the width of the foam roller while sitting down. You are using the gravity and weight of your legs to press into the foam roller… helping smooth out your cellulite.
Do this for a total of 5 minutes each day. This exercise alone will diminish the appearance of your cellulite better than anything else you can do.
2. Do the backwards walk
Walking backwards puts more emphasis on your butt and hamstrings (back of the legs). It’s a great way to work your legs in a low impact manner. I don’t know how overweight you are and how out of shape you are, but I know that most people who are 30+ pounds overweight can’t handle the intensity of a lot of cardio exercises such as running or jogging. Even if they could, their ligaments and joints are stressed from the extra pounds which makes for lots of injuries. So avoid that stuff and stick with backwards walking.
Do these walks for a total of 15-20 minutes a day, 4 days a week. Obviously, so you won’t look ridiculous, you should use a treadmill. This is how to slim thighs and reduce Cellulite without having to risk an injury AND without overdoing it.

Running or walking to reduce size of muscular but cellulite-y thighs and calves?
I’m quite short, and my upper body is petit and reasonably slim, but everything below seems out of proportion- my butt, (which is mostly fat) mammoth thighs, and huge calves. I used to be a sprinter, and walk alot on the balls of my feet, so I’m sure that contributes to my ever-growing calves
The thing is, although my thighs are muscular, they have quite visible cellulite "orange peel" on them, as well as my butt.
So I’m really confused, as lunges are said to be very good at toning and reducing cellulite visibility, but yet shouldn’t be done with muscular legs, as they will increase the muscle size.
I’m unsure as to whether I should walk, jog, or alternate jogging with sprinting (e.g sprint 30 seconds, jog 30 seconds etc.) because a smattering of websites seem to be disagreeing with each other over what increases or decreases the size of what.
So, what is the best way to tackle my problem of cellulite-y muscular legs, and flabby butt? Jogging, walking? Any particular exercises I could do at home to help?
Hope you guys can help me out!
Thanks for reading, and have a great day!
well don’t jog for too long because you could actually make your legs bulk up. you can alternate between walking and jogging.

Stretch before and after workouts.
Bicycling, swimming with heavy kicking, stair climbing, leg curls on nautilus machine, an exercise were you would kneel down on all 4′s and do a bended leg lift behind you and a low fat diet. Easier said than done. But no pain no gain.
I found out also that you can burn the same amount of calories walking the same distance as running or jogging. The only difference is the time it would take. I would take the time to walk or go on an eliptical machine.

idk how committed you are to your cardio and eating but that’s key. You have to put in the right foods fuel your metabolism keep your HR at target and do at least 30 mins of cardio 5 times a week. Even though you want to lose in targeted spots that’s not how it works. Women lose weight first in their faces, upper body hands. The lower body can see loss in inches through weight training but the overall weight loss comes only by cardio and eating healthy.
I always recommend a healthy eating plan that’s reasonable. Circuit training 3 days a week and 2 days cardio only.
Interval cardio is the best form,
