How to run without making your calves bigger

Modern people are paying more and more attention to health. Many people have the habit of running. Most people have regarded running as an indispensable form of exercise in life. Running not only makes people's body healthy, but also makes people's legs become thicker and stronger. Many people lose weight by running, but running will make people's calves thicker. So how to run without strengthening the calves?

Running is a very good exercise method for people who want to lose weight, but because it will make the calves thicker, many girls dare not choose it. In fact, as long as you master the techniques and basic elements of running, your calves will not become thicker. Here are some tips on how to run without getting thicker legs.

Girls who like running but don't dare to run are afraid of having small and thick legs. Running does make your legs thicker. Just look at the calves of sprinters; they are very thick. Running can also make the leg muscles tighter. Look at the calves of those long-distance runners, they are all very slender and strong. This is due to the difference in running methods. The position where your feet land when running determines whether your calves will become thicker, so it is very important. Do not step on the ground with the forefoot first. This way of landing requires your calves to have great strength, so that your calf muscles will become very strong. Also, don't land on your heels, as this can hurt your knees. Land on the front part of your heel, and then quickly move to the entire sole of your foot. This will not hurt your knees and will not make your calves thicker. Everyone knows that you need to warm up before running, but not many people know much about stretching after running. Many people just rest directly after running, which greatly reduces the effect of running in losing weight. Doing proper stretching exercises after running can help shape your legs and prevent your calves from becoming thicker after running.

If you don't pay attention to the running time and speed, your calves will become thicker. It is better to control the exercise time within one hour, otherwise it will cause muscle fatigue and even damage the joints. The speed should not be too fast. Don't think that the faster you run, the better the weight loss effect will be. It is wrong to do this. Although fast running can burn more fat, it will increase the burden on the calves and make the muscles grow rapidly, making the calves thicker.
