What's the best type of Cardio for Ass, Halms and Quads?

Quadzilla

Hi Guys,

I'm 6 weeks out of my competition and i am holiding most bodyfat around my ass, halms and quads, this has always been the last place for the body fat to come off my body.

What is everyones opinion on the type of cardio that is best for tightening up this area?

Thanks!

any cardio is good as i am sure you know i find that in those last weeks when you have to hold on to the muscle whilst sheeding the last minutes fat deposits that walking on a treadmill at a pace around the 3mph pace at a high incline for 45min twice daily is good to tighten up...

previously i have used a combination of walking on treadmill (speed 3.5 and incline of 5) for 30 mins... as well as cross trainer for 30 mins... (at a speed im comfortable with with very little resistance)

i prefer cross trainer in morning before breakfast as i feel this is an overall better cardio session and i feel it burns more calories for me. you also use your glutes/hams more... so in theory the separations should be better... BUT you cant spot reduce fat itll come off each site when its ready... unless ur using GH.

Extreme

the stepper with your arse sticking out and squezing the glutes and focusing on your hams as you move.

Frankly, I think you need to invest in a cross trainer You can get to workout all the major areas and put on a real good sweat, but only if you push yourself.

Or just save your money and use the one in the gym.

Try using a X-Trainer, but backwards. Do not use arms on lever so you will use hip stability muscles Gluteus Medius. Muscle used while going backwards are: Gluteus maximus, hamstrings, calfs (gastox/soleus). Aim for minimum of 10mins Guy's!!!

any cv is good to drop the fat. training the legs will tighten thsoe areas best. go for a full deep squat i say.

Hardcore, your right any CV will reduce your fat stores, obviously this is the area where you store your fat.
Reference squats, if you have your feet slightly turned outwards during the squat then this ingages your Glutius a little more.

Have you considered ditching your current form of transport for a good old push bike? Sure, this may not be convenient if you need to travel from London to Manchester but for relatively short journeys, consider going green!
