Exercises for Legs, Hips and Butt
I jump rope 3 days a week for 30 mins and have not really seen any changes. Should I add leg exercises and what are some good ones? I have really really short legs and I dont want them to get huge.. I heard doing squats and lunges are good but I also heard they make your legs look bigger.
