can this cause thigh fat?

Question

i have heard that if you cross your legs too much you will get more leg fat. i always cross my legs and my legs are fatter than i would like. i am very active and eat very healthy, but my thighs are fatter than the rest of my body. is crossing my legs a reason for this thigh fat?

Answer 1

I have never heard that crossing your legs can cause your thighs to get fatter, but I have heard that by crossing your legs too much it puts pressure on the underside of the top leg, breaking the small, subcutaneous veins, creating spider veins. Just stay healthy and active and don't worry about them getting fatter. P.S. If you don't want spider veins, and you can't stop crossing them, then you should elevate your legs for 20 minutes per day, it will improve the circulation, preventing new veins from forming and helping existing ones to fade.
