an average 2 year old…now to get somewhere between an average human leg and an elephant’s heart…

I’ve lost between an Irish Setter an a gold brick. Awesome.
The goal is to have lost between the complete Oxford English Dictionary and an average adult man.
That’s nuts. When I reach my goal weight (7lbs from being halfway there!), I will be less than half my starting weight.
Crazy.

I’ve lost a goddamn bald eagle! SHIT. I LOVE THIS :)

A cinder block .. thats crazy

Get Your Best Legs
First know that you can’t reduce fat in just one place. Your body takes a little bit of fat from everywhere, more or less in some places due to your genetics. Doing a ton of leg exercises isn’t necessarily going to make all that fat disappear, at least not by itself. We do these exercises to shape and tone the muscles so your legs have a great shape. If you aren’t eating healthy and doing cardio those sexy muscles are going to be hidden no matter how many squats you do. Gaining muscle helps, it increases the metabolism thus burning more calories, but you have to work the rest of your body and have a clean diet too.
Try to do one video or pick five exercises and do 3 sets of 8-12 reps (or until you feel the burn) about 3-4 days a week. Do cardio 3-5 days a week too, it can be running, biking, swimming, Zumba, kickboxing, whatever gets your heart pounding and sweat dripping. You can combine strength workouts and cardio into the same day if you want. Make sure to eat protein after your workouts, it helps build muscle!
These are, in my opinion, the best thigh and leg exercises and videos. I’ve included links to instructions for most of the exercises and a variety that you can do at home or at the gym. If you workout at home try to get some 8-10 lbs dumbbells, or get a backpack/duffel bag and fill it with heavy books to challenge yourself.
If you have access to a gym try these machines & equipment:
the leg/hamstring curl machine
the leg press machine
the leg abductor/adductor machines
squats with a barbell and/or dumbbells
barbell deadlifts 
lunges with dumbbells
bulgarian split squat
If you don’t have access to a gym try these exercises at home:
wall squats
jump squats 
bridge/hip lifts (try them with your feet on a chair/bed)
hip lifts on a balance ball (you’ll get an almost instant burn!)
leg lifts
inner thigh lifts
the fire hydrant
sumo squats
suicides
These are my favorite leg videos:
