from personal experience it does help a lot!
A bootcamp workout is a workout like no other. It will help you tone your butt, thighs, calves and tummy. It will help you greatly if you have just had a baby.
What you asking is if you can spot reduce fat, which you technically can't. You basically have to loose fat over your entire body, which includes thighs and calves, through diet and exercise (Cardio workouts, biking, running, swimming). However you can exercise thighs and calves so they are more toned which which tighten up flabby loose muscle underneath the fat layer. Exercises to tone thights: lunges, squats, donkey kicks, ect. Exercises to tone calves: running and jump rope or anything else that you do on the balls of your feet.
Soccer helps by reduce the weight in the calves as soccer is involved with running burning fat around the calves. This answer brought to you by Dr. Mohamed Hassan
It qualifies as light aerobic exercise, sure. It doesn't tone your biceps, though. Only weight training tones your muscles to a significant degree (with a few exceptions -- running tones your calves, for example).

Running up stairs will build the quads, upper front of the legs and the calves from the pushing while running up on the toes. Over all tone will be the results. Adding the return of going down the stairs will balance the musle groups. going up will equal doing lunges.
Skating is much like running in that it is an aerobic activity that uses the legs. Skating will strengthen your quads, hamstrings and calves, as well as help you lose weight and keep a healthy body.
No, running in place (on the spot) mainly uses muscles from your calves and hamstrings. When you run normally you are working your calves, hamstrings, glutes, abs, upper and lower back...basically a larger muscle group. Running in place is a good warm up, while running normally is an exercise.
Proper diet and exercise will help a person to maintain the muscle tone. Leg muscles can be maintained by running, swimming or doing aerobics.
Dumbells can help to tone your pecs if you do the correct excercises.
Both running and swimming are great ways to lose weight. Running tends to be easier to achieve because you can do it anywhere. Swimming has added benefits of water resistance which can help tone muscles while burning calories.
