Tips for lean sexy legs, leg exercises



Sexy Legs


Workout those thighs and get them ready to show off! Trim those legs: Here are a few simple exercises to improve calves, thighs and leg muscles.

There are four major thigh muscle groups:


1. The hamstrings in the back of the thigh.

2. The adductor or groin muscles--the inner thigh muscles.

3. The quadriceps at the front of the thigh.
 
4. The hip flexors at the front of the pelvis.  
 
Hamstring Lift:

• Position yourself on your hands and knees. Lower yourself down to your elbows, making sure the elbows stay directly under your shoulders.

• Keep your back straight and your abs pulled in tight. Keeping the knee bent, lift the foot toward the ceiling until the thigh is parallel to the floor. Squeeze the buttocks and be sure not to lift the thigh higher than hip-level.

• Lower the leg and repeat. Perform one set of reps, then repeat with the opposite leg.


Rear Leg Raised Lunge

• Place one foot onto a secure step box, with the other foot out to your front.

• Bend both legs at the knee, lowering yourself down, keeping the back straight and avoid taking the knee over the toes.

• This exercise can be made harder by either holding weights, or performing a weight exercise like a bicep curl at the same time. To Slim Your Thighs.

• first lie flat on the floor and then draw your knees up towards your chest. Now push your legs up in the air and keep them as straight as you can.

• Slowly start moving your legs as if you are riding a bicycle. Do this about 5-6 times and then repeat the movements at a fast speed for another 5-6 times. Repeat the whole routine 5-6 times, including the slow and fast movements.

Inner-Thigh Lift:

• Lie on your left side on the floor, left leg straight and in line with the torso.

• Place right leg in front of you so right knee is in line with your hip. Rest your head on your arm and place right hand on floor in front of chest for support.

• Keep toes pointing forward and lift the left leg toward the ceiling as high as possible without rolling forward or backward.
