Hi lovely,
I’m sorry to hear about your struggles! :(
I know that reaching your fitness goals can be hard and that you probably have lots of questions on how to get that lean and toned body.
We would love to help you as much as we can. So that’s why we have created the Lean Legs Program!

Our program has been designed to include the perfect type of resistance training and cardio to give you a lean and toned look, without making you bulky.
It’s an 8 week workout and nutrition plan that will help you slim down your legs, but will also help you slim and tone your upper body and core too (the workouts are full body).
It also includes a full meal plan, a separate recipe ebook and demonstration videos.

If this is what you’re looking for, I would definitely recommend giving our program a go. :) You can find out more about it here:

Wishing you all the best! xx

Love,
Diana

Hello there, my name is Esther. Well, I decided to get into weight training two months or so ago, an yes I have seen some difference. But at this point I feel like I’m gaining fat and and not muscle and seem like the male instructors kinda misguided me on what to eat to gain muscle. The reason why I started weight training is to get strength and gain muscle, and also for my mental state since I was diagnosed with clinical depression, so I use it as part of my therapy. But now is seems frustrating because, although my shoulders, arm and back are broader an leaner, I’ve got a tummy and I kinda feel fat on my lower part of the body. It’s kinda discouranging me to the point where by I miss my slender body(although I looked a lot weaker and drained). I’m confused, I’m not sure of what do now or changing the diet according to how a woman should train….please help me.

Thanks.

I love your blog. After being involved in fitness my entire life, and hearing the mantra of squats and lunges, yet seeing so many bulky figures, it’s great to finally have common sense. I remember complaining to my PT that the weight training was making me bigger, she said, “Impossible.” It’s so frustrating and sickening to think of all the wasted years working against my own goals. So, thank you for this awesome blog. Can you post on best dance cardio? I would love to read about that. Thank you again.

In reply to Cherelle. Hi Cherelle. Everyones bodies are different, so if your body responds better to heavy lifting then you should do what works best for you :) Your height, weight, age and activity level will determine your calorie intake so it's hard to comment on that, and your body type will affect whether or not you get bulky from heavy lifting. But if you have been lifting heavy and are happy with the results, then go for it! xx

Hey Rachael, what if I lift heavy on 1200-1490 calories a day with a combination of the HIIT cardio you suggested, will it help me lose fat and get leaner? Doing only body weight and light weight training doesn’t work for me, I need to lift heavy.

In reply to Penelope. Hi Penelope, I'm sorry to hear this happened to you! It takes a long time to lose muscle so yes they will go, but it will take a while. Just keep with the lighter resistance training and cardio! Good luck hun xx
