Target Your Butt, Belly, and Thighs

Tired of the exasperating zipper dance you perform each time you don your favorite pair of jeans? Well, get ready to zip up with ease: We've got the perfect plan to firm your butt, flatten your belly, tone your thighs, and blast fat everywhere.

"To instigate real body changes, you must shake up your typical routine," says Tracey Mallett, owner of the ATP Specific Training & Physical Therapy Center in South Pasadena, California. One of Mallett's top transformational strategies is to use a flight of stairs for both cardio and strength workouts. "Stair climbing instantly boosts your heart rate, builds endurance, and provides an added muscular challenge," says Mallett.

Do the following strength and stair workouts three times a week on nonconsecutive days. Add one hilly hike or longer run on weekends to blast even more calories and you'll be slipping into those skinny jeans in one month!

For these excercises you need stairs. What if you live in a one-floor house?

You should really try Yoga. It is great for thighs and trouble spots for women. I have been to hundreds of Yoga classes throughout my life and always see the most beautifully shaped women in those classes, it doesn't matter if they are 18 or 58 years old, most of those gals are Knockouts.. Make sure to keep your back straight so that your legs do most of the work and get most of the benefit. Good Luck!!! http://www.fightobesity.net/how-to-lose-weight-in-your-thighs.html
