Getting fit is much easier than many people think. The key to success is perseverance and patience. It doesn’t happen overnight as many of us wish.
In today’s article, we’ll show you the most effective exercises to sculpt slim thighs.
You just need to do 10 to 15 repetitions of each exercise in the order listed below.
Exercise 1: Kettlebell Swing
You need to start standing with your legs wider than hip-width apart and with both hands holding the kettlebell between your legs and then you need to slightly bend your knees.
Next, you need to lean your chest forward, and swing the kettlebell back between your legs and then push your hips forward until you are in a standing position. And then simultaneously throw your arms straight out in front of you while keeping a firm grip on the kettlebell and repeat.
You need to make sure that you are pushing your hips back and forth – these are thrusts, not squats.
Exercise 2: Burpees
Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your arms at your sides.
Lower yourself into a squat position with your hands flat on the floor in front of you.
Push your legs back into a push-up position and lower your chest to the floor.
Return to position two, pushing both feet forward to return to a squat position.
Jump up and raise both hands above your head.
Exercise 3: Clamshells
Lie on your right side with your arm extended along the mat and your head relaxed on your arm. Bend both knees and draw them forward slightly to align your feet with your glutes, making sure your hips are stacked and you maintain a slight gap between your waist and the floor. This is the starting position.
Inhale.
Exhale. Keeping your feet together, engage your right glute to raise your right knee toward the ceiling, making sure to maintain distance between your waist and the floor.
Inhale. Lower your right knee to return to the starting position.
Complete 10 to 15 reps on the same side before completing the remaining reps on the other side.
Exercise 4: Raising both legs
Start by lying on the floor with your legs raised and your hands behind your head and breathe deeply. This is the starting position.
Slowly lower your legs as far as you can without touching the floor.
Then raise your legs back to the starting position.
Exercise 5: Curtsy Lunge
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms at your sides.
Putting your weight on your right foot, step back and pivot with your left foot – almost as if you were curtsying – allowing your arms to come out in front of you in a comfortable position. Make sure your chest stays upright.
Begin to straighten your right leg, pushing up through your heel and returning your left foot to the starting position.
Do 10 to 15 reps on each side.
