| I was at the gym last night with my bf and after our workout I stepped on the scale and wasn't really thrilled, yet disappointed either. I weighed in at 135 when I've been actually weighing in at 132 the whole week, must be water weight. ANYWAYS, a personal trainer approached me and offered her "service" in helping me achieve my goals. Well... that service package ranges from $149 to $649, I'm not able to afford such prices right now.I'm what they call a "pear shape" so my question is what are the BEST exercises to do that will help me better shape my hips down to my thighs and maybe calves?My upper body is the least of my worries. This is my routine now: Gym Mon, Wed, Fri and I work with weights for my arms, back and chest, and use the machines like leg extensions, leg curls, leg press..ect for my leg workouts. Tue and Thurs I run, jog, walk. I feel as if I'm not doing enough or the correct workouts for my target area. Please help or give me your advise.I guess I have to also add that I DO eat healthy 6 days a week and on Saturdays I usually workout both upper and lower body, but with less weights or more like a "lighter" 1 hour workout than the other 5 days.I am 5'6 and yes I am within my healthy weight range, BUT I would like to slim down some AND THEN tone up and I believe you can't tone up unless you slim down. So Yes, I would like a firmer but and and thighs, not a flat butt and jiggly thighs. Although I am at a healthy weight range, mind you that most of my weight is stored on my hips and thighs and I would love to be proportioned! |

| You don't say what height you are, so perhaps this is just a healthy weight for you! P.S. The personal trainer was more interested in your wallet than your weight. Don't take that as an indication that you need to lose any weight. But if you need to lose some money, they can help. |
