Re: Good ways to tone legs?       04/11/05 12:00 PM Edit Reply Quote retrograde Reged: 04/15/04 Posts: 1569 I'd just suggest cardio for lowering your body fat % (so the muscles look more defined, make your ankles look smaller etc.) and then some weight training to build up the rest of your legs so they are in proportion to your calves - i.e. (if you have access to equipment) dumbbell squats, or leg press machine, and maybe some straight legged deadlifts too. Skip the calf raises though All that will also, of ocurse, lead to weight loss too! Working the legs actually contributes to speeding up the metabolism (= your body's ability to lose weight) because it is the largest muscle group on the body. HTH - good luck!
