[/quote]

:roll:

Are you trying to tell us that doing these exercises is going to physically lengthen OP's femur?

You can lose weight, or you can let your leg muscles atrophy. If you have a body type that naturally holds on to fat in your legs, losing weight will be hard. Might be better to embrace your body instead, challenging as that may be for someone like you.[/quote]

It's unlikely op's body shape will change significantly but by doing exercises that lengthen muscles vs shorten (jumping, lifting) they might look a little leaner.

"Someone like you" - wtf?[/quote]

You have no idea what you're talking about. Please stop.[/quote]

I have large thigh muscles (thanks college-level soccer!) and found that my whole body, including my legs, feel and look leaner/longer when I do Pilates and barre. Getting leaner overall helps too of course.

Just sharing my experience. Not sure why you're so argumentative.

One of my friends (also former soccer player) swears by distance running. My knees are trashed so I can't try that.
