What is the reason for thick ankles

Some women feel very distressed because their ankles feel relatively thick, which affects the overall beauty when exposed outside. There are many reasons for thick ankles, including genetic reasons. Some women are born with large frames. Of course, there are also reasons such as poor diet and lack of exercise. At this time, certain methods can be used to improve the situation, such as losing weight, moderate exercise and massage, etc.

To prevent ankle obesity, you should start with prevention.

1. Past trauma to the foot. For example, players who played basketball in school days would easily sprain their feet. Most sprains are healed by the body itself, but there will actually be long-term sprains afterwards, and the outside of the ankle will become swollen. For more serious injuries, such as when the ligament is broken, the tendon will become thicker to support the movement of the leg, and naturally the ankle will grow thicker than others. 2. Some girls who wear high heels have been walking in the wrong posture for years, and their feet are particularly prone to turning outward and twisting. After a long time, even if it doesn't hurt when pressed, the feet will become swollen. In this situation, it is recommended that in addition to doing the hind leg extension exercise, you can also jump on tiptoe. Jump lightly and don't jump too hard. If you jump too hard, your calves will become thicker. The benefit of jumping is that it can make our tendons stronger and our lines more graceful, so when doing stretching movements, you can combine it with some simple jumps. Of course, you can also use skipping rope instead of jumping.

Coping with stout exercise style

First of all, we need to find out what causes thick thighs, is it fat accumulation or muscle? The characteristics of muscles can be observed in life: if you don't exercise, your muscles will atrophy; the more you exercise, the tighter they become; and with intense exercise, they will become thicker and stronger. To make your thighs firm but not thick, you must stick to aerobic exercise and control the amount of strength training. For example, you can do exercises like squats or cycling in the air. But in fact, as long as the buttocks are perky and the thigh muscles are slightly thick, it doesn’t matter. After all, if the waist-to-hip ratio is good, clothes will look good and the whole person will appear tall and strong. But wanting a perky butt and thin legs is unrealistic.

Is it difficult to prevent edema when sitting for a long time and wearing high heels?

White-collar women often sit at work, and when they are not sitting, they are running around in high heels. It is really difficult to get rid of the swelling! So how do you prevent leg swelling? In fact, girls also experience this phenomenon before menstruation. From an exercise perspective, it helps the muscles squeeze the entire lymph area to improve blood circulation. You can use a towel or elastic band at home to do this exercise: lie down, extend one leg upward, grab the elastic band with your hands and make a circle, press the elastic band on the sole of your foot, straighten your legs as much as possible, and make sure your toes are facing yourself, then change your leg, and if possible, extend both legs upward together.
