It\u2019s an annoying truth that it&#8217;s only women who usually worry about slimming down their hips \u2013 this is because we are the ones that were made to carry babies. And we are designed to store fat here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women have larger fat cells than men, and extra weight seems to hit us during and after puberty. A lot of this fat goes to our hips, specifically to supply the energy we need for breastfeeding and baby carrying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, of course, most women don\u2019t start having babies straight after puberty, and some won\u2019t ever bear a child. But this stubborn weight remains on our hips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, this is the reason you are likely to struggle to slim down your hips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>MY TIPS ON HOW

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>CARDIO<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I talk about the importance of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/cardio-qa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">effective cardio<\/a> for weight loss a lot because it really does make a difference. Not only does it help with your fitness levels, but it also assists with overall weight loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So what cardio is best?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>High intensity cardio is the best way to slim down all over. Yes, including your hips. The most common high intensity cardio is running, but you can do other things like swimming or even a dance class. You just need to make sure that you keep at it for a steady and intense for a period of at least 20\u201330 minutes to be able to get the benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since spot reducing is not really possible, you want to try to do at least 3 high-intensity cardio sessions per week to burn lots of calories and get rid of overall body fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned in my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/how-to-get-skinny-legs-cardio-for-lean-legs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">how to get lean legs with cardio<\/a> blog post, high-intensity cardio should be combined with low-intensity (i.e. walking) for the best results. Walking certainly helps to burn fat from your legs, so mixing up your running with some walking is a great thing to do for your body overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CxXdwchvpUG\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

This is because it burns calories after your workout (as well as during).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a style of resistance training, and it works even better than standard weightlifting because of its high intensity! This means you&#8217;ll burn even MORE calories during your workout and afterwards as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A combination of HIIT and high-intensity cardio works wonders for slimming down your hips :)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes I find that doing certain HIIT exercises can cause you to bulk up (which we don\u2019t want!). So it&#8217;s important to avoid the bulking style of workouts if you&#8217;re trying to make your hips slimmer. There are lots of great HIIT exercises you can do that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/hiit-workout-for-slim-body\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">don\u2019t bulk you up<\/a>. I&#8217;ve posted lots of free HIIT workouts on my blog <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/category\/workouts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if you are an endomorph body type, I would advise you to maybe skip HIIT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/Cnwe19tprHO\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Along with sticking to the right kinds of workouts to lose hip fat, you should also make a commitment to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/clean-eating-guidelines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clean eating<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this day and age, it\u2019s so easy to just reach for processed meals and junk food. But, the more bad food you eat (such as refined carbs and sugar), the more fat you store, and the worse you feel. The worse you feel, the less you want to exercise&#8230; It&#8217;s a vicious cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eating food in its most natural state is the best thing for our bodies to get the nutrition that it needs. Eat as healthy as you possibly can and try to limit your junk \/ processed food to just a few times per week rather than every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>It is also extremely important to eat the right amount of food.<\/em> If you eat super healthy but still eat too much, you won&#8217;t lose weight. You should consume <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/how-to-calculate-your-daily-calorie-intake\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">less calories than your body is burning<\/a> every day to lose weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you start eating a better diet, you\u2019ll notice that you can not only lose weight faster, but that your health and overall wellbeing improve too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019d like to see an example of a day in the life of my clean diet, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rachaelattard.com\/my-daily-diet-revised\/\" target=\"_blank\"

They cause your body to store fat on your belly and hips, and make it very difficult to lose weight (sometimes impossible).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are sticking to a strict diet and workout program but can\u2019t seem to slim down your hips, then it might be worth paying a visit to the doctor or naturopath to get your hormone levels checked out. I recommend testing for estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol at the very minimum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<center><blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CuZC3BJPmFB\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
