Without knowing a great deal about you, my first recommendation is to look at what you eat. Start by tracking your meals. Plug them into a software program that will show you how many calories you’re eating. Then you can see where you may need to improve.

Well, I’m a teenager and I’ve been jumping rope consistently for more than 2 years.. I do it daily for a half hour atleast. Besides making my legs look more muscular, it hasn’t really helped me look lean. Suggestions?
I’m 5′5 and weigh 54 kg by the way.

I am 5′9″ and 140 pounds people always guess me to be about 10-20 pounds lighter than my actual weight. I really I am the perfect weight for my height. If i lost wieght I would look anorexic. I just want to get rid of my saddle bags but i like the size of my thighs and love my butt. What can I do to just get rid of the saddle bags? I am really warming up to the idea of strength training for my upper body to balance out everything but am afraid of having muscular arms. Also how do I maintain my dip at the waist with ab excercises? I noticed that women who work their abs have flat defined abs but do not dip in at the sides of their waists. They look like this: http://www.musclesprod.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/women-abs.jpg
but i want to continue to look like this http://thetruthaboutcorestrength.com/image/pilates-ant1.jpg

Beneficial in what way? Reducing the pear shape? Becoming healthier? Improving cardiovascular fitness?

Cycling can help to reduce overall body fat levels, making you a smaller pear. But being a predominantly lower body exercise, cycling can also increase leg muscle mass. You may find the muscles in you butt and thighs getting bigger, which can add to the pear shape.

Hi Angel, I’m partial to The Zone diet or The Formula 40/30/30. I have found that I react best, both from a weight maintenance point of view and from an emotional point of view, when I follow a diet moderate in carbs, higher in protein and higher in fat.

Also, keep in mind that your trouble spots will always be the last place you see the fat go. Try not to focus on your “trouble spots” but rather focus on becoming healthier overall.

Take care.

Hi Tracee, First congratulations on your weight loss success. When you hit a plateau, you sometimes have to mix things up. Change the pace of your running; change the weight training routine you follow and even try eating a few more calories for a couple of days.

This is my body type and it sucks. To really get where you want you’ll need both a better diet and more exercise.

I’ve found that I prefer an eliptical machine over treadmill or bike.
