Why  Do You Want Smaller Hips and Sexy Butt Any Way!

Well for most women like yourself you want to be able to put on anything and know you LOOK GREAT!  When you have a flat stomach accompanied by nice hips and butt your clothes just seems to look awesome no matter what you wear, men smile more when they see you, and you don’t try to hide from seeing yourself naked in the mirror.  And besides if she can have a nice butt and smaller hips so can you, right?

First the Truth About Hip Exercises

Hip exercises do really exist but a lot of women would be surprised by what I am going to say next.  Don’t be alarmed I just want you to know what you are getting yourself before you attempt any of these exercises.  Exercising your hips will only work and allow you to see a difference if you change your diet and calorie intake. 

I know this is not what you WANT to hear but it’s exactly what you NEED to hear.  You see you probably have already done most if not all of the exercises I am going to mention.  The problem is that your hips are not going to change if you don’t change your eating habits.  Also remember that depending on what body type you are also make a difference in where you store most of your fat.

No Such Thing As Spot Reduction

I know I just told the bad news concerning losing fat in your hip area but some women are just not going to believe me.  See the problem is that too many of you have heard and now believe that you can lose weight or fat from where you want.  You simply believe that if you want get a smaller waist you can tell your body wear to take fat from or if you want fat from your hips to go away you can go buy the HIP LOSER 3000 and it will magically make it disappear.  By now I am sure you have tried and fail miserably using the spot reduction method so let’s just try it my way.

Smaller Hips & Better Butt

One of the keys to having a better butt is having a smaller waistline and smaller hips.  When your waist and hips are smaller in size when compared to your buttocks it makes your rearend look that much better.  A better butt doesn’t mean a bigger one just portionate to the size of your body when in comparasion to other parts.

Tip #1 for Smaller Hips and a Better Butt

Focus more on full body workouts – Not only this does give your body a better look but it also gets you out of the mindset that you can simply do specific exercises that will target a specific FAT AREA.  Full body workouts can be done at home and require no equipment.

Tip #2 for Smaller Hips and a Better Butt

Stop doing what everyone else does – This is a big problem for a lot of women simply because you tend to be like the company you keep.  If all of your friends go out and have drinks and eat bad you tend to do the same thing they do.  There’s nothing wrong with having a bottle of water or just one drink and if you don’t want to eat all of your food when you go out to for dinner tell them to only serve half and pack the other half in a to go box.

Tip #3 for Smaller Hips and a Better Butt

Eat Less and Move A Lot More – You are going to have to eat fewer calories than your body requires for fuel.  It doesn’t matter how healthy the food is if you are overeating you will still gain weight.  If you eat 2500 calories from fruits and vegetables it is still possible for you do gain weight.  Moving more doesn’t mean working out it could be going to the beach for a walk or rollerblading just don’t sit on your butt all day.

Where Are All the Hip Exercises?

The truth is that there are no magical exercises for your hips to become smaller!  If you want smaller hips you are going to have to lose fat which means better eating and more movement.  Some great exercises for your hips and butt are listed below:

  1. Lunges
  2. Squats
  3. Sprinting
  4. One-Legged Deadlift
  5. Walking
  6. Step Ups
  7. Running Stairs

When You Exercise Legs Don’t Forget to Exercise Calf Muscles

Do you exercise calf muscles doing your leg workout?  Generally speaking there are only a few things men find more appealing than a pair of sexy legs on a woman.  However while working out their legs I find that many women don’t exercise calf muscles the way that they should.  I’m not suggesting that a woman should end up with huge calves from over working them but you have to work the entire leg and that includes your calf muscles.  You want your leg to have a sexy appealing look “all over” not just the thigh and hip area.

“This is “Dancing with the Stars” Kym Johnson &  Lacey Schwimmer.  This picture shows how for the most part it’s the lower legs that get all of the appearance not to mention how the heels help the legs alot.  These women are always on there toes and this helps to create wonderful looking calves and give a great overall impression of their legs.”

Why So Many Forget About The Lower Legs

I think the main reason most women focus on the upper part of their legs are because that is the place the usually seek change.  From the emails I have received this part of their legs is almost tops where they would consider their problem area. That simply means that this is the part of their leg where they find excessive fat.  We all know that if there is one thing that will get a woman to workout out its not fitting into jeans or the dreaded thigh rub.

Reasons to Focus on Lower Leg

One reason for focusing on exercising your calf muscles is for balance and I not just talking about being able to stand up straight.  But think about if you only work the top part of your body and never touch your lower part.  You would end up looking like a lot of men in the gym who refuse to work their legs who have the massive upper body with the “chicken leg” look. Make sure you give your legs the sleek balance by working both upper and lower parts.

My second reason women should focus on their calves is simply because those are exposed more than any other part of the legs.  Whether is shorts, swimsuits, skirts, or whatever else you wear that is going to show your legs your calves will be the first thing a man will see.  If you think about when a man approaches you and says “you have wonderful legs” for the most part all he is commenting on are your calves.  I mean let’s face unless you are in a bikini that is all he is really going to see!

Exercises for Building Sexy Calf Muscles:

Sprinting for Calves

Not only is sprinting excellent for building and sculpting a nice round butt, it also is ideal for great calves as well.  Sprinting causes you to stay on your toes and is an excellent way to push your lower legs in an explosive way.  I sprinted in high school and the women I saw on the track were some of the best looking and toned legs I have ever seen.  If you want to lose weight fast or tone any part of your body then you should get into sprinting.

Jumping Rope

I just did a post a few days ago on how you can use jumping rope for high intensity interval training but skipping rope will no doubt help to build some pretty sexy calf muscles. The exercise forces you to stay on your toes and whenever you use your toes you use your calves.  If you can do double jumps for a long period of time you will really burn the lower legs.

Also just look at all of the exotic dancer out there (Ok not all of them) but for the most part they all have nice tone legs.  Much like performers such as “Beyonce” and “Shakira” who do whole performances while wearing heels the keep them on their toes for extends periods of time forcing them to work there calves.

My Thoughts On Exercising Calves

I find a woman’s leg to be very attractive and think that every part of the lower body should be worked including the calf muscles.  For many women just the consistent walking in high heels all day will allow them to achieve similar tone and appearance.  However for a better workout or for those who look to achieve a better overall appearance trying so of the tips recommended will surely help even taking up a dancing class that requires you to wear heels.  Have you seen the legs on the women on dancing with the stars lately?
