5 Exercise to tone the stubborn inner thighs

June 07, 2023 by admin in Workouts

Shaping or toning the inner thigs can seem like a humongous task. Despite all the squats, lunges and leg lifts, the stubborn thigh fat fails to reduce many times. But the key is to perform exercises in a certain way regularly so that there can be a difference.

 

Here are 5 inner thigh toning exercises that you can practice:

 

1. Sumo squats: If you’ve been doing regular squats, wait until you do sumo squats and feel the burn. Stand with your feet wider than hip-width apart, toes pointed slightly outward. Bend your knees and lower your body down as though sitting on an imaginary chair. Ensure your knees align with your toes but don’t extend beyond them. Push yourself back up to a standing position. Repeat for 15-20 reps. This variation of the squat emphasizes the inner thighs along with glutes and quads.

2. Lateral lunges: For lateral lunges, stand up with your feet hip-width apart. Now, step in the right direction with your right knee into a lunge and left leg straight. Now, push back to the starting position and repeat the same on the left side. Do 10-15 reps on each side. Lateral lunges target the inner thighs and also work on the glutes, quads and hamstrings.

3. Glider side lunge: To perform a glider slide lunge, you will need a small towel or a fitness glider. Stand with your feet hip-width apart and place a glider or towel under your right foot. Now, slide the right foot to the side and keep the left floor as it is. At this point, bend the knee and little and push your hips back. Slide the foot back into the starting position. Repeat this process for 10-15 times on each side. You’ll be able to feel the burn in your inner thighs.

4. Inner thigh lifts: Now this is a lying down exercise. Lie down on your right side and bend your right keg at the bottom and your left leg extended straight. Now, lift your left leg as high as you can and bring it down again without touching the lower leg. Repeat this for 15-20 reps on each side. This move specifically targets the inner thigh muscles.

5. Seated ball squeeze: Take a chair and sit on it with your feet flat on the floor. Place a medium sized exercise ball between your knees. Using your thigh muscles, squeeze the ball and hold this position for 1-2 seconds before releasing. Repeat for 15-20 reps. This exercise directly engages your inner thighs.

Note: While these exercises work for most people, the time of getting results can vary from person to person and body to body.

Make sure that you are consistent with your workouts and follow these exercises in proper form for tined inner thighs. In the end, remember that fitness is the ultimate goal.
