7 Remarkable Ways To Reduce Your Thigh Fat!

Let’s get it straight. You can’t cut down your thigh fat overnight. So if you dream for the goddess-like feeling with those perfect slim thighs, check out below the 7 remarkable ways to reduce your thigh fat!

• Drink lots and lots of water

Know how it works? The less water you have, the more your body retains it. Drinking lots of water will flush out the excess unnecessary salt and fluids, thereby reducing bloating. It even curbs your appetite as dehydration can mimic hunger. Moskovitz suggests to drink 2-3 liters daily.

• Check your salt intake

Salt causes excess water retention in your body. It further causes bloating in your entire body, including your thighs and hips. Most people require 1500 mg sodium daily, according to the American Heart Association’s recommendations. But many of us consume much more sodium. So cut it back by restricting processed foods, like canned veggies, soups and sauces, filled with sodium.

• Have a cup of coffee every morning

Coffee (mainly black coffee) has a negligible diuretic effect. It rather stimulates your metabolism and your body’s ability to burn fats. But don’t have too much coffee! Moskovitz suggests that you should have two cups every day max.

• Have more protein and fiber

Consume all those foods rich in protein and fiber to speed up weight loss. Why? Because both of them keep you fuller on less calories. Protein, specially, is important to build the lean muscle and make your legs feel goddess-like. Moskovitz suggests consuming a total of 75-100 g protein and 25-35 g fiber daily, including fruits, veggies, lean meats and whole grains.

• Reduce your carbs intake

Carbs are transformed by your body into glycogen and stored with water in your muscles and liver. So the more carbs you have, the more water is retained. Moskovitz suggests having 75-100 g carbs minimum per day (or a little more depending on your weight, height, etc.). Don’t avoid whole grains or iron, magnesium, phytonutrients and antioxidants.

• Do some aerobic exercise

Aerobic exercise also helps flush out the extra salt and fluids from your body. It also boosts up your heart rate and burns your calories and body fat as in your thighs and hips. The more your calorie burn, the more you create your calorie deficit and the more you can lose weight! That’s your formula to follow.

• Go for squats and lunges

Yes, besides the same repetitive exercises, there are other ways to work your thigh muscles. Do front squats regularly to work your quads and, back squats to work your hamstrings and glutes. Perform single-leg movements, including split squats and lunges. Focus on your stability muscles, like your inner and outer thighs. Add them in your routine.

To sum up, stay adequately hydrated, balance out your meals wisely focusing on essential nutrients, cut down any undesired consumptions and most importantly, keep moving your legs to best reduce your thigh fat. Share your experiences in the comments section below!
