Program for losing weight on legs (for pears): 30 exercises
A pear figure can be recognized by its wide hips with a narrow waist and small breasts. Even thin pears have hips and legs that seem heavy.
It is the “pears” who are more susceptible to cellulite than others, and it is most difficult for them to lose weight in the hips. But the right workout for losing weight in your legs will help you get rid of extra pounds in the hips and buttocks.
We offer you a ready-made, effective 3-day program for “pears” without equipment, aimed at working on problem areas, fat burning and weight loss.
Pear body type: body features
The Pear type is distinguished by the following parameters:
- » Height: most often average or below average.
- » Shoulders: not wide and/or sloping.
- » Chest: small to medium size.
- » Waist: clearly defined or weakly defined, but not wide. Typically a low waistline.
- » Hips: quite wide. Always clearly wider and more massive than the chest.
- » Legs: As a rule, they appear short relative to the body. which is due to the low waistline.
- » Overall impression: soft feminine lines. Clear preponderance of the lower body over the upper.
If a woman gains weight, then mainly her hips and legs become fat, but her waist, chest and face always remain thin. At the same time, extra pounds are deposited in the lower abdomen, which is clearly visible in profile. “Sciatic bags” may appear on the thighs. The legs become full along the entire length, including above the knees and in the calves.

Varieties of body shape
Girls with a pear-shaped figure can look different. There are 3 subspecies of pear.
In its purest form
Women have small breasts (size “zero” is possible), but wide hips. The waist is narrow, but low, and its line is often difficult to see. The stomach is flat and remains so even without exercise. The legs of owners of this body type are plump and dense evenly along the entire length.
The pear-type figure has several varieties.
"Bell"
Girls with this body type have shoulders that are several times smaller and narrower than their hips, making their torso shaped like a bell. The waist is short, but its line is clearly visible even if you are overweight. Women have large buttocks with rounded, graceful lines and full legs.
"Spin"
Owners of this body type have medium and sometimes large breasts. The shoulders are sometimes only slightly inferior to the hips in volume. The waist is narrow, with a clearly defined line, but the stomach is often rounded, which catches the eye when the girl stands in profile. The thighs are full and dense, but the calves and ankles are thin and graceful.
Wardrobe for a Pear figure
Suitable silhouettes in clothes
The main advantage of the Pear figure is a thin waist, which does not depend on the height and weight of its owner, so it is this that should be emphasized when correctly composing a wardrobe.
In addition, to achieve harmony, the emphasis must be transferred from full hips to the fragile upper part. When creating your image, you should stick to smooth curves and avoid straight lines.
Thus, the best silhouettes for women of the body type in question would be semi-fitted and fitted . Both of these silhouettes will emphasize the narrowest part of the figure - the waist.
A trapezoid silhouette with a moderate expansion towards the bottom is suitable for women of full build: the hips can be hidden, however, the advantages of the figure will also be hidden.
It is better to refuse a straight silhouette, because... it does not emphasize natural softness and femininity, and also makes the figure heavier.

Cardio load
An integral part of daily exercise is cardio exercises. They are performed after a complex of work on individual muscles.
They speed up the work of the heart, have a positive effect on the blood supply system, normalize metabolic processes, tone all muscles, tighten the skin, and promote the harmonious development of muscles. All this helps to get rid of extra pounds and burn fat. Therefore, cardio exercise is indicated for weight loss. It is also noted that, like nothing else, it improves mood.
However, to achieve this effect, the duration of the lesson should be 30-40 minutes. In less time, the body will not have time to warm up properly, and the heart will not have time to adapt to the new rhythm. A high load over a longer period of time is suitable for trained people, but in all other cases it will cause unnecessary fatigue.
Cardio on the treadmill
Advice. Cardio exercise comes from running, cycling, and brisk walking. It is better to exercise outside, in parks, but exercise machines will also be quite effective.
When working out in the gym, it is important to follow the following order:

Suitable clothing lengths
The basis of the wardrobe of women with a Pear figure are most often knee-length skirts at the narrowest point. Unfortunately, only young girls can afford shorter skirts, and longer skirts will make the lower part of the figure even heavier.
The optimal length for shoulder items, such as blouses, tops and jackets, is from the beginning to the middle of the thigh. Bolero jackets that end under the bust, as well as empire-style blouses, will look good.
Straight trousers without decorative elements or visible stitching should become a wardrobe staple for women with a Pear figure. They should be worn with shoes with heels, the length should be selected to the middle of the heel.
When choosing outerwear, give preference to coats and fur coats just below the knee length if you plan to wear them with skirts and dresses. Consider the option of high winter boots, the top of which will be covered by the hem of your outerwear.
When paired with trousers, the length of outerwear should be one hand above the knee.

Trousers, jeans, trousers and shorts
Straight trousers
Classic trousers with arrows will perfectly suit your body type. They will visually make your legs a little longer, and bring your figure closer to a rectangle. To highlight your waist, you should use a thin or wide belt.
Flared trousers and jeans
If you have a pear body type, you should always avoid skinny trousers and jeans. They will be able to give your hips even more volume, which will make you look awkward. Therefore, pay attention to flared trousers and jeans. Such models will perfectly emphasize your voluminous bottom, but at the same time they will not draw much attention to it.
Shorts
Girls with a pear body type can also wear shorts. They just have to be loose models that have a high rise, and in other cases go almost to the knee length. Under no circumstances should you choose tight shorts; they will only highlight your massive butt, which will not add a plus to your overall look.

Suitable proportions in clothing
Since women with a Pear figure most often have a low waistline and short or average height, the proportions in clothing and its individual elements are designed to slightly raise the waistline and add a couple of centimeters to height. For these purposes, the ideal proportions would be the following:
- » top length to the waist line (to the beginning of the hip) + skirt of the same length (1:1). This proportion is recommended for women with normal and short stature. If you are short, it is recommended to select a set in one color.
- » top 1/3 + skirt/pants 2/3. A good option for women of medium and short height, especially with a normal and low waistline.
- » top 1/4 + skirt/ trousers/ dress 3/4. A cropped jacket with trousers creates the illusion of longer legs.

DAY 2 (WORKOUT FOR WEIGHT LOSS WITHOUT JUMPING)
To effectively lose weight, you need to keep your heart rate in the cardio zone during exercise. This can be done without jumping or running if you perform compound exercises at an intense pace. The second day of our thigh slimming program does not involve jumping, but provides an effective cardio load through multi-component functional exercises, which will help you significantly slim your thighs.
The second day included the following exercises:
The number of repetitions is approximate, you can adapt the load to your capabilities.
SQUATS WITH DIAGONAL LUNCHES
How to do it: Stand in a wide stance and perform a squat, moving your pelvis back without bending your back. As you come up from the squat, take a step back and to the side, lowering into a diagonal lunge. Come back and on your next squat rise, lunge diagonally with your other leg.
How to simplify: In order to make this leg weight loss exercise easier, you can slow down the pace or avoid going into a deep squat.
How much to do: 10 lunges on each side (20 squats total).
KICK TO THE SIDE
How to do it: Stand in a boxing stance, clench your hands into fists in front of you and bend your legs slightly. Then perform vigorous kicks to the side, as if punching a punching bag. At the same time, move your body back and lift your leg along the trajectory up and to the side. Perform a whole set on one side, then the next set on the other side.
How to simplify: Perform leg swings with a small amplitude, do not lift your leg high.
How much to do: 20 kicks on one side, then 20 kicks on the other side.
SPRING STEPS FROM A HALF SQUT
How to do it: Bend your knees slightly, lowering yourself into a half-squat. From this position, move your leg to the side, making pulsating movements up and down, and return back. Don't slouch, tighten your buttocks and move your pelvis back.
How to make it easier: Straighten up after every two leg abductions to relax the muscles a little.
How much to do: 15 leg abductions on each side (30 leg abductions in total).
RISING FROM PLANK TO SQUAT
How to do it: Get into a plank position with your arms straight, and then take two steps forward so that your feet are slightly behind your shoulders. Now raise your body into a classic squat. When lifting, do not change the position of your hands so that it is convenient to return to the plank. Don't forget to alternate repetitions in one approach, i.e. First, the right leg steps out of the plank first, then the left leg.
How to simplify: If an exercise from a workout for a pear body type turns out to be difficult, then try doing it slowly or not completely. The latter means that you do not need to rise into a squat. It is enough to take two steps forward and two steps back from the plank to return to the starting position.
How much to do: 10 lifts from each leg (20 squat raises in total).
SQUAT WITH SHIN LOCK
How to do it: Stand in a wide stance and perform a sumo squat. Then, as you rise, cross your shin with your right leg and lower back into a squat. On the next lift, do a shin sweep with your left leg. Perform the exercise at a rhythmic pace.
How to make it easier: To make this thigh-slimming exercise easier, do it at a slow pace and don't squat deeply.
How much to do: 15 touches on each side (30 squats in total).
SWING TO THE SIDEWAYS
How to do it: Stand straight with your arms in front of you. Alternately lift each leg to the side until it is parallel to the floor. At the same time, the body remains stable. The leg should move in one plane along a trajectory from bottom to top and back.
How to simplify: If you cannot achieve parallelism with the floor, then raise your leg to your maximum height. You can also perform swings not with each leg in turn, but first do all the swings with one leg, and then with the other.
How much to do: 15 swings on each side (30 swings in total).
BACK LUNCHES WITH LEG SWING
How to do it: From a standing position, with your feet shoulder-width apart, lunge back. Then, without returning to the starting position, kick forward with the same leg, trying to reach the opposite palm with your leg. Perform a whole set on one side, then the next set on the other side.
How to Simplify: To make your thigh-slimming workout a little easier, break the compound exercise into two: back lunges and forward kicks. To do this, after performing a backward lunge, return to the starting position (i.e. place your working leg next to the supporting leg), and only then perform a forward kick.
How much to do: 15 reps on one leg, then 15 reps on the other leg.
NARROW SQUATS WITH ROTATION
How to do it: Place your feet together and do a classic squat in a narrow position. At the bottom point, move your leg to the side to the left, turning your whole body after it. Come back up from the squat. On your next squat, rotate to the right.
How to simplify: To make the exercise easier, squat not to parallel with the floor and gradually increase the load.
How much to do: 10 leg abductions on each side (20 squats in total).
LOW-IMPACT SKATTER
How to do it: From a standing position, perform a half-lunge back diagonally, while trying to reach the foot of your front leg with the opposite hand. Perform lunges alternately with each leg at a medium pace.
How to make it easier: Perform regular diagonal half-lunges without touching your foot with your hand. This way you will reduce the load a little if the exercise from the training for “pears” turned out to be difficult for you.
How much to do: 15 touches on each side (30 half-lunges in total).
CONNECTING THE KNEES
How to do it: Place your feet wider than your shoulders and lower yourself into a deep half-squat, keep your arms in front of you, and lean your body forward slightly. Now bring your knees together until they touch each other, and then spread them as wide as possible. Try not to straighten out of the squat or bend your back.
Wardrobe for Pear body type
The main task when choosing styles and models of clothing for Grusha is to achieve harmony between the top and the heavier bottom.
If your hips are not too wide, then try to bring your figure to an Hourglass silhouette by widening your shoulder line. All top styles with shoulder pads, fluffy collars, and horizontal lines will suit you.
With fairly wide hips, the main principle of correction is to divert attention from the heavy lower part. Use dark shades for skirts and trousers, avoid decorations and decorations in this part, textured fabrics, patch pockets, etc.

Common Misconceptions
- The first and most important thing you need to know is that you can gain weight in a specific area of the body, but you cannot lose weight. Unfair, but true. Not ready to go under the knife? You will have to be patient and common sense. And lose weight evenly and completely. Each body has “pantries” where it stores energy reserves in the form of fat for a rainy day. For the “pear” body, such a place is the hips. You will lose weight in your face, your wrists will become graceful and fragile, your arms and shoulders will become sculpted, but the “breeches” will last the longest, because there is the largest amount of fatty tissue. The main thing is not to quit classes halfway!
- Fasting is not a diet. No matter how great the temptation is to quickly suffer for a couple of weeks on buckwheat and water, this approach has a lot of disadvantages. Stress and reducing calorie intake below normal causes the body to slow down metabolism, and we need the opposite effect. Weight loss in such conditions occurs due to fluid loss and muscle tissue destruction. The fluid will soon return, and the body with a minimum of muscle will become, perhaps, thinner, but flabby, cellulite, weak and shapeless.
- Massages and body wraps cannot work miracles, no matter what the advertisement promises. Without proper nutrition and exercise, even the coolest massage therapist will not rid you of excess fat, which is the cause of your problems. Maximum - will give a small temporary effect. Or perhaps it will be limited to only bruises.

Diet for Pear: how to lose weight?
Women with a Pear figure are predisposed to be overweight, and the extra pounds are distributed mainly in the area below the waist - on the hips and buttocks. The metabolic rate is quite low, weight gains very quickly if you do not follow the correct diet and do not count the number of calories consumed.
As a rule, owners of the physique in question do not complain of lack of appetite, therefore, if there is a desire to lose weight, they need to adhere to a strict diet.
Recommended daily diet:
- » proteins: lean meat and fish, low-fat kefir, cottage cheese, nuts
- » fresh fruits and vegetables, herbs
- » cereals: whole grain porridge, wholemeal bread
- » water, natural juices, herbal teas
It is very useful to eat vegetarian soups with a small amount of salt. Pears are not prohibited from snacking, but they should be very light (a glass of yogurt or one apple or a banana and no more!). As a dessert, a small portion of pudding, preferably unsweetened, is suitable. The elixir for weight loss for type A is tomato juice; it contains a large amount of biologically active substances that promote cell regeneration, maintain skin tone and freshness, and also accelerate metabolic processes in the body.
It is not recommended to consume: fatty fish and meat, legumes, foods rich in starch, carbonated drinks, flour products, sweets and all kinds of baked goods.

Recommendations for losing weight
Girls with such a figure tend to be overweight, but they need to be careful in dealing with excess weight. When losing weight, it is important not to harm your health and get rid of fat only in problem areas, without affecting the upper body.
Possible risks
Women with a pear figure are prone to osteoporosis and varicose veins. Therefore, strict dietary restrictions and fasting, which cause the development of deficiency conditions and hormonal disorders, are contraindicated for them.
Osteoporosis is a chronically progressive systemic skeletal disease.
Mistakes when fighting excess weight
Girls trying to normalize their weight should avoid common mistakes:
- Fasting and strict diets are contraindicated. With strict dietary restrictions, the chest and upper body lose weight first, and only then the thighs. If you have a pear-shaped physique, this will only make the situation worse.
- 30-minute workouts will not bring results. To model the body you need to practice for at least 45-60 minutes.
There is a lot you can do at home. But in the initial stages, it is better to contact a professional instructor who will help you choose the most effective exercises and show you the correct technique for performing them.
Exercises for Pear: the best types of physical activity
The most problematic areas of the Pear figure are the hips and buttocks. Therefore, to remove unwanted fat deposits and stay in shape, you need to exercise regularly in addition to your diet. The main emphasis should be on strengthening the muscles of the abdomen, thighs, legs and buttocks.
A simple exercise: stand on all fours, leaning on the floor with your arms bent at the elbows, so that your head and back form a straight line; Raise your right leg bent at the knee ten to twelve times without touching the floor, repeat the same with your left leg; Repeat alternating legs up to ten times. It is recommended to perform this exercise several times a day.
You can also stimulate metabolic processes in the body, activate the circulatory system and lymph circulation through massage. By the way, for this it is not at all necessary to visit special salons and pay a lot of money; the simplest self-massage - kneading the legs and buttocks from top to bottom, using anti-cellulite cream, will give an excellent result after a certain period of time. You can also use an electric massager for this.

Upper body correction
To perform this group of exercises, dumbbells, barbells, discs, and expanders are used. Their goal is to raise the tone of the muscle tissue of the shoulders, chest, abs, and remove the sides.
Plank
Lean on the floor with your hands and toes, straighten your body, stand for one minute. Beginners can start with 30 seconds.
Advice. You can increase the tension if you place your hands on the floor and your feet on a raised platform.
Push ups
Habitual and often unloved push-ups have an amazing effect on the muscles of the arms, shoulder girdle, chest, and abs. If you listen to your body while doing them, you can easily feel that the load is transferred to your hips.
Press
Exercises for the abdominal muscles will help remove fat deposits from the waist, make it thinner, and give a slimmer figure:
- Lie down, put your hands behind your head, pull yourself forward, sit down, stretch and touch your toes with your hands.
- In the same position, but extend your arms along the body, raise your straightened legs, and lower them.
- Lying on the mat, bend your legs at the knees, turn first to the right, then to the left.
- Hanging on a horizontal bar or wall bars, raise your legs straight or bent at the knees. Tension extends to the waist, back, legs and buttocks.
