Body Recomp Recommendations NEEDED
Hello!! I’m not sure where to start. I (23F) have been on a fitness journey recently (since 2018 but took it more seriously now). Since the pandemic, I gained a massive amount of weight well over 100lbs. I’ve managed to get down and lose 85 lbs with only a calorie deficit, however I want to lose the extra 15 plus 30 more totaling to 45 more pounds.
However, because of my genetics, weight does not go towards my lower body and mainly goes towards my apron/hanging belly (my mom and both sets of my grandmothers have the same body type). My calves and thighs are extremely small compared to the rest of my body. Think of two toothpicks at the end of a Twinkie. That’s my body composition, unfortunately. I’m extremely insecure about it and I want to make it disappear.
I know while doing workouts, I need to be consistent and consume protein after completion, however, I’m not sure how to start. What workouts could I do to grow EVERYTHING (all glutes, thighs, and calves) on my lower body with and without weights? And how many reps? Thank you guys so much
