Hi Christine, from what you describe it does sound like you have a mesomorph body type. If you feel like you already have too much muscle and bulk in your legs, then I would avoid weights for now. I would focus on jogging and power walking, and perhaps some lower intensity strengthening exercises such as yoga and pilates xx

I am quite a beginner with all these weight loss exercises, but I would really like to achieve skinnier legs. I have a lean body, however, my legs are bulky and muscular, and I have tried doing some squats and HIIT, but all they have done is make my thighs even bulkier! My sister said that I have a naturally athletic body, but I don’t do much sports! Does that mean that I am a mesomorph? My diet is fairly clean, but I do occasionally snack. Could you please recommend some exercises that I should do to achieve skinnier legs? Thank you very much!!

Hi Claire, it could be a range of things – but yes you probably need to work on technique, otherwise it could be overuse (this has happened to me before). Make sure when you set up your squat position that your feet are underneath your hips, toes turned out slightly and knees out. If you are not sure, just ask a trainer at your gym – I’m sure they would be happy to help! :) xx

Would you do a ‘what I eat in a week’ post like the one on your workouts? It would be sooo helpful.
Thank you xx

By the way, sometimes, at the end of my daily squats and lunges, my knee is hurting. Is it because I’m not doing them well?
