If there’s one thing you know about us at HBFit, it’s that we love a good pilates sesh. This workout method is so unique because it targets specific body areas with micro-movements, minus any physical strain. One spot we target often is the inner thighs. Here are three go-to moves you can do to strengthen and tone, at home! (All you need is a hand towel!)
Side Splits
- Stand with your feet hip distance a part
- Place the hand towel underneath your right foot
- Extend your arms out from your shoulders, palms facing forward
- Slide your right leg to the side (2-4 feet wide)
- Press into your left foot and use your inner thigh to bring your right leg back in, keeping both legs straight
- Do 15 reps
- Repeat on the left side
- Repeat set on both sides 3 times
- Lie on your right side, lengthening your right leg and crossing your left leg on top of it (Rest your knee/foot on the floor + prop your up with your hand/on your arm)
- Lift your bottom leg up, while keeping your torso still
- Do 10 reps
- Repeat on your left side
- Repeat set on both sides 3 times
- Lie on your right side with your left leg hovering over your right
- Lift your left leg as high as you can, while keeping your torso still
- Repeat 8 times
- Bring your leg back to hovering above the bottom leg, and pulse it 8 times
- Now repeat on your left side, with 8 lifts and 8 pulses
- Repeat set on both sides 3 times
