Do Jump Squats to tone up your glutes, hips & thighs fast
The deeper you squat down before each jump the more you'll feel it in your glutes and hips but generally...
If you've never done anything that requires repetitive jumping (like volleyball or basketball) then you'll feel it all over you legs in your glutes, hips & thighs no matter how far you squat down before you jump and...
Beginners should do 4 sets of 12-to-15 reps using no weight or only 5-to-10 pound weights 1-to-2 times a week and after only 1-to-2 weeks of doing this...
You can still do 4 sets but this time use heavier weights and do between 5-to-10 reps.

i want to do these weighted squat jumps but can they hurt your back like regular squats with a barbell?

lara_burek,
At your weight & height - the best thing you can do is take a break from all exercises involving your lower body so hopefully your leg muscles will atrophy or shrink and trying to lose weight may not help since you're already fairly lean and in closing...
YOU LOOK GOOD ALREADY - be happy with your body
I am a 35 year old, 120 lb 5'7" woman who works out 6 days a week. For the past 4 months I have tried everything including lotte berk (pilates), running 3x a week, yoga and even bootcamp. Instead of losing lbs and inches I have gained weight. Im sure it's muscle weight but now my thighs and butt are even bigger then before. What can I do to work out but slim those areas instead of bulking up. Help!!

The quick answer is you could do the Exercises for bigger & curvier Butt, Hip, & Thighs here using lighter weights for 2 sets of 8-to-12 reps (but only pick 1-to-2 exercises) and...
The long answer is that you could still have some stubborn thigh fat that you can only lose by continuing to use the tips at NowLoss.com but what you really need to do is...

Mark,
It may help you jump higher depending on how untrained you are but...
To increase your vertical do heavy squats, power cleans and Vertical Jumps to get you going...
You can lose 15-to-20 pounds but I don't think it'll happen in a week Doing fast weight loss workout #1 or #2

Maria,
When you don't pause - it's your muscles + momentum that's helping you jump but when you pause...
Your muscles do all the work with NO Momentum giving you a better leg workout

qnofkgs,
NO - you want your leg muscles to do all the work and not the trampoline
