Cardio exercises for the inner thighs

You will need a regular ladder or any cardio machine, or even a skipping rope, and a timer.

Alternate 120 seconds of cardio or stair-walking with 60 seconds of the following free-weight exercises:

Jumping for slimming thighs:

1. Jump

Stand with your feet hip-width apart, step your right foot behind your back, pull in your abs, and push off with both feet from the floor so that your right foot begins to move to the right. Land, put your left foot behind your right and now move to the left.

2. Plie jump.

Feet a meter wide or more, bending the knees and spreading them to the sides, we lower ourselves into a plie.

The difference from the “wide squat” is that the pelvis is directed straight down, and the back moves along an axis perpendicular to the floor. At the bottom point, we push off with our feet from the floor and jump out.

3. Plie with rise to toes.

We perform plie, but we don’t jump out of the bottom point of the exercise, but simply rise alternately on our toes, and stand up, balancing on them.

You can grab a support with your hands – a chair, a table cover will do.

4. “Ballet circle”.

Balance on your right foot, lift your left off the floor, put it on your toe in front of you and draw a semicircle, moving from front to back. Do not lift your toe off the floor, and do not twist your pelvis. Spend 30 seconds on each leg.

When doing exercises for the inner thigh, do not rush and do not try at all costs to put your legs wider than you can. You shouldn’t experience pain in your knees or hips while exercising. Remember that the volume of the muscles of the thighs can increase from strength exercises. The first couple of weeks of training, perhaps the legs will not look as slender as we would like. Don’t panic and keep practicing. Beginners of the power load are often haunted by edema. They usually go away on their own after a couple of weeks, so you just have to be patient.
