Say Goodbye to Stubborn Inner Thighs

By Mike Mauney

Some body parts seem to have a mind of their own and often don’t respond to regular workout routines. Here’s a three-step plan to whip those inner thighs back into shape.

No matter what their body type, women who work out often can be heard singing the blues: “It’s those inner thighs where the trouble lies.” One of the most difficult areas of the body to change and improve is the inner thigh. Almost all of the women I train have a problem with tightening and reducing the size of their inner thighs. I am sure that most of you have, or will have, this problem, and it seems that you are constantly struggling with it. Even after weight loss shows up in all the other parts of your body, the inner thighs just keep retaining the fat until the very end. Well, there are three things that you must do to take care of that nagging problem.

First is to begin an intense aerobic program that will jump-start you into burning body fat. The aerobic activity should last 30 to 45 minutes a day. Running, jogging, fast walking, cycling, and the like are great options. Just be sure to choose an activity that you enjoy.

Second is to follow a healthy nutrition plan. Reduce your intake of red meat, fried foods, and sugars. Replace them with baked, broiled, or grilled chicken, fish, or turkey. Also, be sure that you are getting plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Third is to perform the right type of exercise that will focus directly on the body part that needs to be changed — your inner thighs. Remember, you cannot spot reduce body fat, but you can tone the muscles in a specific area of your body such as your inner thighs. There are several different types of exercises for toning your inners thighs. A popular inner thigh exercise is often called “Scissors”.
