No need to be a dick.
If honesty make me a d*ck then so be it. Better than leading OP to believe there is anything she can do in 6 weeks to tone her legs or being like people on-line who sell BS programs. Should I tell her to do some crazy diet or exercise program that won't really do anything in 6 weeks?
People who have toned legs either A. have great genetics or B. have spent yearS working on them. You can not gain muscle and "tone" anything in 6 weeks. best bet would be to go on a strict diet to lose weight, but where the fat comes off isn't guaranteed could end up with the same legs but small boobs. Most "toning" is really just low enough body fat to see muscle you already have.
Bullsh$t. You absolutely can make significant changes in your body in 6 weeks. 100%. You are a dick for bringing up boobs every time.
PP is actually absolutely right. I have been lifting for years, I can squat 225 and deadlift 300, while wearing a size 2 but my legs still do not look very toned simply because that is where I hold all my fat. Yes, you can change some in 6 weeks, but most of that visual change would have to come from fat loss. Noone builds visible leg muscle in 6 weeks.

There is also a difference in lifting weights for strength vs to hypertrophy. Someone can be strong without having physically larger muscles. Power lifters and body builders train differently. One only cares about strength while the other cares about size.

I’m sorry, but did OP say she planned to stop at 6 weeks? I am really tired of people making assumptions.

You know what’s great? You don’t need to get it! Doesn’t that feel good to just mentally allow people do what makes them feel good?
You have my permission to unclench.

Much can be improved in 6 weeks. You will have to remember you only have 6 weeks so throw everything you have at it. Low calorie, cardio, pilates type exercises, squats.

Not much can be done in 6 weeks. The legs are made up of large muscle groups- they take awhile to develop. It isn’t easy to build muscle, which is what you actually want to do to achieve the “toned up” look you want. Moving up in weights is good but it takes a long time to see muscle growth especially in the large muscle groups! For context I have lifted weights for 7 years. People see me at the gym and think I look that way from ease but it took YEARS to build that muscle.
You look fine and should enjoy your vacation. Keep working out. But it’s a long haul to achieve the look you want, a years long process. You can’t achieve it in 3 months or 6 more weeks.

I was being lazy when I said lean - what I meant, as PPs helpfully explained, is that hard cardio and calorie counting can help trim the fat hiding your muscle. I would add serious running, stairs, and hill walking to your routine + some high quality yoga or Pilates.
It mostly takes a lot of work in the form of severe calorie restriction and probably some dehydration, as well, i.e., nothing remotely sustainable. Because… why, exactly? The beach isn’t going to be any more fabulous.

I’ve been doing a pretty solid leg workout rotation 3 days a week for about a month now. I’ve increased my weight on the equipment and noticed a slight difference in the way clothes fit, even lost 6lb, but somehow my thighs look more dimply than before? What is going on!
I have a Caribbean vacation in six weeks and I really want to tone up my thighs particularly before then. I just don’t understand how I have been working my a$$ off (literally) for a month and things are looking more flabby than ever. Help me tone up in these next 6 weeks. Thanks!
Nothing is changing in 6 weeks, hun.
I was called a dick when I said that🤣 glad I’m not alone

Yea you can. I did it to my entire body. A massive transformation in 6 weeks to get ready for a photo shoot (I’m a “mature” model) I was already thin, but looked flabby. I probably would have been kicked off set has I arrived in the condition that I was in when they booked me.
And you know what I used as my guide? Tiktok. Yes tiktok routines.
DP: Can you share with TT accounts you follow for routines? I'm in a gym rut and want to bump up my routine. Thanks!
Lately I’m following katb_fit on IG. Great 20min routines.
Thanks!
