I have had the same problem. Strong legs can be sexy though. I used to hate mine but a lot of people find it very attractive so now I flaunt them. If you feel good about them you will begin to appreciate them. You should feel more sexy that you have muscular legs because a lot of girls would die to get rid of their fatty thighs and have nice thigh muscles.

First of all NONE of the exercises you see in magazines will get rid of fat from legs or any other part of the body. Either its an outright lie, or more likely they are implying it, as magazines often do- without actually saying it. Thats because humans cannot target fat loss.

As for muscle loss, its actually simpler in theory at least. If you dont use it, you lose it. Apart from genetic presdisposition, muscle builds up as an overcompensation to the stress you put your body through. The less stress, the less muscle.

You would need to particularly avoid anaerobic types of exercises, since they have a tendency to produce more volume. E.g. Gym workouts like squats, sports like volleyball, soccer, and anything with shorter strength/ power movements.

Personally I would rather keep the muscular legs than become less active.

Good luck.
