Hey all. Several months ago I posted on r/loseit and got some really good advice for my cousin who's not really on reddit but to whom I extolled the virtues of the wisdom to be had on here, and she was really really interested.
She learned some good techniques (like CICO) for weight loss, but she really wants to step up her fitness game now, and as I only really know the male/bodybuilding side of things, am not able to help much.
She's looking to slim down in the thigh/leg/glute area. She's doing really well on diet (~1700 calories a day, eating really good, whole foods, etc.) but the female exercise regimens on YouTube seem to be contradictory or oftentimes too simple. She tried signing up for an online fitness program through a pretty reputable podcast but had no clue what to do- I took one look at the thing, full of Arnold presses and trap shrugs and grids of routines per day and could not blame her in the least.
What would be tremendously helpful would be _some_ reliable, approachable, well-explained and laid out program for her, something for women with her goals in mind that's intelligently and clearly structured.
Now, I hate to throw a wrench into things, but she's really limited in equipment right now due to Covid, so at most it should only require resistance bands, some dumbbells, etc., you know, stuff in the ~$50 price (and ~50 cubic inch!) range. Also jumping/plyo activities would be an issue as she lives on the third floor of her building and can often only workout nights.
Anyway, thanks so much in advance. Reddit has been pretty damn helpful in the past, figured you guys might come through for us again now!
