Hi lovely! Based on the experience of our customers, walking in place or at home isn’t really as effective as walking outside or on a treadmill. I advise that you invest in a treadmill if you can. Make sure that it’s on a zero-degree incline. :)

As for running, it is great cardio but it also engages your quads a lot. Rachael recommends running for 30 mins max 2-3x a week. If your main goal is to slim down your legs, you can check out our 3 Steps to Lean Legs Program. It was designed specifically for girls who are struggling to slim down their legs. :)

Anyway, I’m a mesomorph type and I want to lose weight without creating bulky legs. For that, how many times a week do I have to run to lose weight without creating bulky legs?

Ps: as I have nowhere to run and walk here where I live (there is no park nearby and it would be too dangerous to do both on the street corner, due to the cars) I have been doing “walking at home” which is on YouTube. And I wanted to know if they make your legs bulky.

exercises I mentioned:
“walk at home” (I do this 3x a week): https://youtu.be/rCsHEt_EZ0c

“run at home” (I do this twice a week): https://youtu.be/u5Nr_FA4kfs

Hi lovely,

Thanks for reaching out! :)

This really depends on what type of dancing you are doing and how much you’re doing. If you’re dancing for really long periods every day, then your legs may increase in size, regardless of what dancing you’re doing. Overusing your leg muscles can cause bulkiness.

If your style of dance requires lots of jumping and moving from sitting to standing, then it may cause bulkiness. But again, this depends on your body type too.:)

I hope this helps! <3
