Problem area – thigh gap

I'v had a few people speak to me about how to work and get the thigh gap and in this post I am going to explain to you how to attain this.

The thigh gap is basically the fat on the inner thigh. It is a real problem area for women to work and there is such a rise to have a good thigh gap because a lot of celebrities have great legs in which females look up to and want to look like that themselves. 

There is no particular workout that will remove fat in a certain area, but all it comes down to is how bad do you want it, how much effort are you willing to put in, how intense do you want to make it. If you want it that bad then continue reading because I am going to give you some exercises you can do to help remove fat and tone those legs, but you won't just lose fat on your legs but you will also lose the fat around your core area.

What exercises can you do to remove fat and tone them legs?

  • Well for a start, I can't explain to you how important squats are to do, they are what's going to build the foundation of your legs, lose that stubborn fat not only in your quads, but your gluteus maximus (bottom), hamstrings and even your core, who would of thought that one exercise would work that much. At the bottom of this post there will be a video for a standard squat and sumo squats.
  • Sumo squats. Again a great exercise that focuses on the same muscles but it really works on that inner quad muscle and your adductor. This exercise is also in the video at the bottom of the post.
  • Lunges, the third exercise and this exercise targets the whole quad. A real burner to help tone and shape them quads and burn any fat around the leg area.
  • The final exercise is straight leg deadlift. Now you're probably thinking that this is more of a back exercise but it in fact really helps with toning and tightening them hamstrings and even your butt muscles.
