so if i like jogged, would it help, would it also help my arms,butt, and stomach.
stand absolutely straight with your hands on your hips and your legs together. Now keep your spine straight and bend only the knees until you assume a squatting position. Hold it there to the count of four and rise slowly, keeping your spine as straight as possible. Repeat this exercise at least ten times.
2. To slim your thighs –
firstly lie flat on the floor and then draw your knees up towards your chest. Now push your legs up in the air and keep them as straight as you can. Slowly start moving your legs as if you are riding a bicycle. Do this about 5-6 times and then repeat the movements at a fast speed for another 5-6 times. Repeat the whole routine 5-6 times, including the slow and fast movements.
3. To improve leg muscles –
firstly sit straight in a chair. Your back should be absolutely erect. Keep your feet on the floor and slowly stretch your legs out as far as is possible. The feet and knees should be together. Now raise your legs until your feet are off the floor and your knees are completely straight. Keeping this position, bend the feet towards you, pushing your heels out as far as possible and then point the toes down as much as you can. Do both these movements about six times each. Now relax. For the next step, raise your feet once again, and keeping them together, turn them outwards until the soles support each other. Then turn them inwards until the ankles and big toe joints touch each other. Repeat each of these movements six times and relax.
omgsamanthax3 answered Wednesday July 11 2007, 12:32 am: I lose over 30 pounds last summer, and I was 12.
It's possible. I did over 5 hours of bicycle riding a day. I ate about 1,000 calories a day.
Then after I lost about 10 pounds I started doing 500 situps a day and 800 calories a day. The last 5 are the most difficult to lose. So I did 1000+ crunches a day and ate 500 calories a day, which was going overboard alittle. Dont go so far as to entering bulimia and anorexia.

(or listening to music while you run) Also for your abs, do sit ups, and for your arms, lift weights. Also if you pump your arms while you jog, it helps too. For your butt, just do leg lifts. That way it helps your butt and thighs.
