Any joggers out there?

Hey Everyone,
The weight is falling off and I feel/look good. I need to lift up the chest, buttocks and do what I can with the thighs (extremely pear-shaped, so I dont expect a miracle with the thighs)...would the joggers recommend this form of exercise for overall toning?

 

Jogging is not going to tone up your chest probably not your ass either,  if you want to tone up you gonna have to do some weight training which will not help much with the sagging skin, it will just help plump up your muscles. 

Jogging will however help you lose fat, keep your heart in good shape, and help you keep losing weight.   

Just from a male's point of view, I've been running on the treadmill like crazy and my arse sho ain't getting no tonner.  My lower leg and calf area has gotten toned but it's done nothing for my buttocks.  I've been doing squats without weights but that hasn't helped either.  I guess I need to add some weights to see if that helps.  Good luck.

try a little work on the elliptical machine..its designed to give u a total body tone/cardio work out..........I've used it pretty regularly over the past year with pretty good results. U can adjust the resistance to place more emphasis on any target area, upper body, legs, calfs, butt,etc......

hi there!  Jogging is great cardio and overall muscle toning - but if you really want to see definition you will have to do some resistance training.  Free weights or resistence bands are really good for this - there are also a lot of exercises you can do without weights at home, just using your body weight.

Squats and lunges are your two best exercises for legs thru the glutes.

Core and abs - plank, push ups and reverse crunches

I am pear also, and the treadmill and stair climber was my saving grace and really helped me, but jogging is very good for quick weight loss, but the treadmill and stair climber really helped tone my thighs.
