Breakout box.

Saddle bags:

This is the extra weight that is being carried on the hips and outer thighs. This can be caused by a poor diet, stress, hormonal imbalances, and toxins.

THE CURE:

A good quality diet and regular exercise is the best thing for getting rid of saddle bag fat. The following exercises will help to reduce unwanted fatty deposits in the hips and outer thighs.

Cardiovascular training exercises:

Power walking, hill sprints, cycling and Thai boxing are very beneficial for burning un wanted fat.

Side-lying hip abduction: (also known as side leg lifts)

1.     Start by lying on your side with hips stacked  and raise your legs as high as it will go without letting your hips role back

2.     As you get stronger you can rest a dumbbell on your thigh or use ankle weights to increase tension.

Side lunges: these strengthen your abductors as well as challenging your core

1.     Standing with legs shoulder width apart, step the right foot out to the side. Once the foot is planted on the floor flex the hip and knee shifting your weight over to your right foot.

2.     Push your weight back up, shifting the foot back to the start position.

3.     Repeat with the left foot.
