Hi, my name is Tanya Batts and I'm a Personal Trainer with Gold's Gym. I want to talk to you about inner thigh exercises. Inner thighs are a tough place to work. So whenever your inner thighs are starting to rub when you walk; it's time to do some inner thigh exercise. Or if you just don't ever want them to rub when you walk, go ahead and do it now, preventive maintenance. Okay, the easiest way; probably the easiest way. You're just sitting home, you're on the couch you like, whatever. Grab a pillow, I got a glove here; I'm just going to place my hands between my gloves and squeeze the knees together. You don't even need a glove; just use your hands; squeeze. That's working inner thigh. If you got a ball; grab the ball; so if you're just sitting on it, just sit up a little; legs, squeeze; just like riding a horse. You squeeze the knees; that's working the inner thigh; good stuff. So if you're on the ground; let's just say you don't feel like sitting up but you want to work inner thigh. Take the ball, lay on your back. Same idea, just squeeze, that's inner thigh. So let's just say you hate it; you don't have a ball; you don't care. Lay on your side. I'm going to take this top knee down, the leg on the floor is long; I'm lifting and lowering. That's working inner thigh. See when I keep the foot flexed; if you just tell me you don't think it's enough weight; take a hand weight. Place it on that inner thigh. So think about plate, a stack of books on that inner thigh and you don't want to drop them. Man, that works so good. Keep it up. Maybe do some circles; reverse the circle and then you just want to pulse it. Do as much as you can 'till you really feel that inner thigh starting to burn. Then you want to get up; do the same thing to the other side. That's just a little bit of something you could do. You got to take care of that inner thigh rub when you walk or just prevent it, altogether.
