How long will it take to tone my body?



I am a 5'6" and 127lb female and I am wondering how long it will take me to tone up lower body, specifically my butt/hamstrings and love handles. I have started on a 1500 calorie diet and I was wondering what the most effective exercise routine (cardio/weight training) would be.

  1. depends on the time schedule you have…a 3-4 day excessive program is the best for you..each should be no longer than an hour if on a 3 day program..an hour and a half if on a 4 day . at least 30 minutes of your program dedicated to cardio. weight training should consist of toning, shaping exercises 3 sets of 12-15 reps per body part ..you can e-mail me at mikewood31@yahoo.com if you have anymore questions…good luck

  2. ever heard of the term ‘flogging a dead horse?’

  3. best form of cardio with the least impact on your body swimming the best and do light weight more reps and proper rest you shall do it in no time but do not expect overnite results miss remember perserverance shall prosper

  5. Run for 1 hour, 3 times per week. I did that for about 2 months and noticed a huge improvement. Don’t forget to stretch!

  6. did you just have a baby? and you are now flabby?

    if not, you are skinny so you have no reason to worry about your "flab."
