12 Thigh-Blasting Exercises

Build thigh muscle while blasting fat to give you toned and firm legs.

The thighs always seem to take on more than we want. Whether it’s through genetics or eating habits, that extra jiggle may not be something you’re eager to show when you’re wearing shorts or a bikini. These 12 Thigh-Blasting Exercises hit your thighs inside, out, and all around to build thigh muscles while blasting fat and giving you toned and firm legs.

It’s easy to build and tone most body parts because the movement can be full range in any direction. Your inner thighs are a bit limited because they sit on the inside of your legs, and they aren’t easily affected by a pull or push (the standard for most exercise moves). The thighs are tricky to target, and although you can easily build the front and back of your thighs, the sides require a bit more concentration and focus.

These exercises offer a variety of ways to isolate and target your inner and outer thighs, all while building your quads and hamstrings. All in all, it’s a total toning and firming thigh workout! This workout gives you a bit of freedom in choice, so enjoy the varieties and different movements each exercise offers.
