MESOMORPHS LEAN LEGS WORKOUT GUIDELINES.

Rachael Attard Lean Legs program for mesomorphs- In a nutshell.

Mesomorphs are one of the three types of bodies. 

         Some  characteristics Of Mesomorphs

  • They are well built and have an athletic figure. 
  • They show some muscle definition.
  •  They gain weight easily
  • They also at times can lose weight quickly too.

By the way, I have prepared a one-week workout program that will help you slim down your legs easily,you can check it out Here

             *Still not sure about your body type, find out now by Clicking Here

That been said, the Racheal Attard program for mesomorphs recommends 3 things;

1. HIIT  (3 times a week)

2. Resistance Training ( 3 times a week)

3. Low carb diet high in protein.

4. Power Walking (5 times a week)

                   Let's get into the details

CARDIO.

Rachael Attard recommends POWER WALKING as the best form of cardio for mesomorphs. This is because walking burns so much fat without causing bulk. Power walking is basically walking for 45+ minutes at a slow pace and hitting 14000 steps.

Try to aim to do walking 5 times a week for best results.

HIIT 

Try to do some HIIT at least 3 times a week. The best form of HIIT would be boxing and nonbulking HIIT(some in Rachael's Instagram)


RESISTANCE TRAINING.

The biggest mistake that mesomorphs make is doing the wrong kind of resistance training that causes them to bulk up their legs. As most women do( including myself)squats and lunge thinking they will reduce bulk. This kind of workout will actually make their legs bigger.

The best type of workouts is those recommended by Rachael Attard on her Instagram and YouTube channels. They are so effective yet they do not cause bulk. Most of them are what we call Low-intensity interval training. This blog Here will help you understand why they are the best workouts.

I can also suggest Sanne Vander workouts they are also lean leg workouts.

DIET( low carb diet)

Mesomorphs should have a diet consisting of; 

(30%-35%) carbohydrates

(35%-40%) proteins

30% fat

RECOVERY
Also, aim for at least one-day recovery as a mesomorph

    I would like to know if resistance training includes weight training because I still want to slim my legs but having a booty, so should I continue the weight training also?

      resistance training is not similar to weight training. Weight training uses weights which I do not like to overdo because they can easily bulk especially for a mesomorph. There is booty workouts on YouTube which can grow your booty without using weights

      All workouts are great and if you love doing it you should not stop. The only thing I would advice on is not overdoing it too much. So an hour for 3 days a week should be good

WORKOUTS THAT CAN BULK UP

I must start by saying that there is no workout that can be regarded as a 'bad' workout and you should avoid it because it will bulk you up. It all depends on how much you keep doing it and what muscles are mostly used. In today's blog post, let's talk about the kind of workouts that when overdone are likely to add muscle. Squats Lunges High Knees Traditional HIIT(that which includes loads of jumping) Running up a hill Using the elliptical and stair master Lifting heavy weights Jumping rope To know exactly how they add bulk please read this post  here A lot of the above workouts focus so much on the quads and hamstrings. They will probably overwork these muscles leading them to grow bigger. Maybe too much than your liking.  The key here is not to avoid them but to do them in moderation. If you do a squat as a warmup. Then that is probably not a big problem. If you do HIIT twice a week, that is also acceptable. Want to know which workouts will not bulk you up. Click Here
