This Inner Thigh Workout Will Transform Your Legs

If your thighs never look sculpted, no matter how hard you work out, you may be making the common mistake of overrelying on lunges and squats. These classic moves directly hit the large quad muscles and neglect all the other, smaller ones. Strengthening the quad is not a bad thing, but when you overdevelop it, your hip flexibility can suffer, which can lead to knee pain. These five moves put a spotlight on smaller, and often weaker, thigh muscles, forcing them to participate. The result: stronger, sleeker, and more balanced and flexible upper legs.

Do 30 reps of each move in the series on one side, then repeat the sequence on the other side. Don’t forget your 30 to 60 minutes of cardio six times a week.
