Step 1
Walk. It won't happen fast, but walking is a great way to help get rid of leg fat. It is also the least expensive way, and if you haven't gotten a whole lot of exercise prior to this, you don't want to start by running. Walking is a great starting point for people who simply don't have the stamina yet to jog or run.

Step 2
Jog. Jogging is a lot like run-walking, and it will definitely help you get rid of leg fat. Jogging is an improvement on walking. A slow run, it allows you to lose fat from your legs and stomach area quickly, and is not as difficult as running.

Step 3
Run. Running is probably one of the best ways to get rid of leg fat and also one of the quickest. However, not everyone can run right off the bat. You have to be able to progressively raise your ability to run. Once you start running, you will build muscle in your legs, and that muscle will greatly improve your ability to burn fat. Whether walking, jogging or running, start with shorter distances, and increase slowly, to build up your stamina.

Step 4
Change the way you eat. Walking, jogging and running are all great, but if you don't change the way you eat, your results will be minimalized. Finding the proper nutrition is important whenever trying to lose fat, no matter where your fat is located on your body.

Step 5
Rest. You might not believe this, but your muscles need time to recuperate just as much as you do. While working out eight hours a day, seven days a week sounds like the best way to get fit and trim, the fact is, you need to be able to give your muscles some time to regenerate. When you work out, you rip your muscles apart. Resting lets your muscles rebuild, and while your muscles rebuild, they help burn fat.
