Getting rid of cellulite from your legs and thighs requires dedication. According to the American Council on Exercise, a healthy lifestyle includes regular exercise, balanced eating, positive self-esteem and self-acceptance. Incorporate leg and thigh exercises into your exercise routine at least three times a week. If you are consistent living with living a healthy lifestyle, the cellulite in your legs and thighs should reduce over the period of one month.
Step 1
Improve your stride by pushing off of your heels and rolling up to the ball of your foot. Your core is what does most of the work when you walk. Make a conscious effort to engage your leg muscles more. As you walk, stand tall with your shoulders back and breathe deeply through your nose.
Step 2
Lift your heels so that you are balancing on the balls of your feet. Standing in a straight posture, slowly lower and raise your heels without letting them touch the ground. Do this for a 30 second round. Next, point your toes inward and slowly lower and raise your heels, completing a 30 second round. End by pointing your toes outward and slowly lower and raise your heels for a 30 second round.
Step 3
Stand with your back flat against a wall. Keep your head and spine straight. Slowly let your hips drop, until your legs are bent at a 90 degree angle. Imagine you are sitting in a chair. Do not place your hands on your knees for added support. Make sure to continuously breathe. Hold this position for one minute.
Step 4
Lie down on your right side. Lift your left foot up and place it over your right leg on the outside of the kneecap. Lift your right leg off the ground and flex your foot. Slowly raise your leg as high as you can then lower it down without touching the floor. Complete a 30 second round of inner thigh lifts. Turn on your left side and repeat the same exercise with your left leg.
Step 5
Lie flat on your back. Bend your knees, bringing your feet up flat to the side of your hips. Keeping your shoulders pinned to the floor, lift your hips as high as you can until your body is completely straight. Hold for 30 seconds.
Step 6
Stand with your back facing the front of a chair. Lift up one leg placing the top of your foot on the seat of the chair. Hop on your standing leg until you are balanced. Keep your arms out to the side for assistance. Slowly squat up and down on your leg for 30 seconds. Repeat the same exercise with your opposite leg.
