Female Has Large Calves

Q: I am a female and have male calf muscle. How do i lose the calves muscle so i can have firm female legs and at the same time, lose weight on my thighs?

A: Unfortunately there is no way to directly lose only calf muscle or only thigh fat. The good news is that you can accomplish both by losing overall weight! The best way to go about losing overall weight for you will be pretty much the same as for anyone else trying to lose fat: healthy diet, weight training, and cardio as described here -- please read that article carefully and follow its directions. BUT, because you specifically want to lose calf muscles, you will need to skip any lower-body weight training (but keep upper body!) and you will need to limit your cardio to pretty much just swimming or another zero-impact form.

Finally, if you wear high heels a lot you may want to try and cut down on them as well -- they can build up calf musles quite a bit. Good luck!
