Hello everyone, i'm new here. I'm a college student that is by no means fat. But, i am not feeling that impressed with my body right now. I feel i've gotten some soft edges over this winter, and i was wondering what the best way would be to slim down and get rid of the lumps and bumps.
I always get some sort of physical work out every day. I own and ride horses, and if i'm not riding, i'm scooping poop and doing manual labor. I'm also part of a gym, and go running. I'm not that motivated to go running though, because i'm not entirly sure it will give me what i want. I just want to slim down, get leaner longer muscles, and a more toned appearance, instead of soft and squishy. I had that last summer, and just want to get it this summer again. If i can get this from running, how hard, often, and long would i have to run to get results?
Will running help me? Should i go for speed? Or distance? Or intervals, where i run at a medium pace, then sprint for a little while, and do that on and of througout the run? I do weight training also, what would help the obliques and my sides the most? How bout the hips? Thanks!
