The problem of the thighs
It is true that the every single one of us has at least one ‘’weak spot’’ on the body, and no matter how hard we try to slim down, that spot simply remains intact. However, the key to toning up and losing the excessive fat from the weak spot is, of course, in combining the carefully balanced diet with the regular workouts, which must include the exercises strictly focused on the contraction of that group of the muscles and on encouraging the better blood flow in that area.
So, one of the most common such weak spots, especially in the female population, is the inside part of the thighs. It is so common, that sometimes the skinny women can have the excessive amount of accumulated fat in these areas. It is mainly because of the fact that the accumulation of the fat in certain areas of the body is ruled by the female hormones, and the same thing happens in the case of the hips, or cellulite, for instance.
Also, the thighs are prone to be affected by the fat storages on them because they are not so used muscles, as, for example, the calf muscles. It is because the exact purpose of these inner thigh muscles is to move the leg from the remote position to the position just below the spinal cord. And that movement is pretty rare, it could be said, and, that is the reason why those muscles are prone to lose their tone and become lacking of firmness.The most effective exercises
Nevertheless, the first thing that should be done is to introduce more healthy foods into the eating regime and to stay away from the processed fats and carbohydrates. Such the regime, besides the mentioned specified trainings, must be followed by the workouts based on the aerobic exercises which encourage the better functions of the whole cardiovascular system. Such training is beneficial for the effective burning of the stored fat in the thighs, and, on the other hand, on toning up the thigh muscles at the same time.
Anyway, the training must include the squats and the elevations of the leg from the hip, as the most effective exercises. The first one mentioned could be aggravated by using just one leg for standing. The elevations are usually done from the lying position on the side of the body, and when lifted, the leg should be kept in that position for ten seconds. Besides these, a pillow, or some similar object, could be squeezed with the knees when simply sitting and this should be done as the exercise, since it also triggers the work of the inner thigh muscles.
Of course, the warming up and stretching exercises are compulsory to be done before and after every workout, and the described routine should be done at least 3 times during one week.
