Hi, I'm Katie Bowers with Expert Village and we are working on legs. Just want to go ahead and show you some inner thigh workout techniques that I have. They're also, we all call it inner thighs, we just call the outer thighs abductors, we're also calling inner thighs adductors. So you're adding to the body when you're bringing your knees together. So with this leg, one leg over, crossed over to the front. You can even rest that knee to the floor if you want. But I'm going to kind of keep my foot placement up with my knee lifted. Then I'm going to go ahead and lift that extended leg just up to the ceiling. You want to do this for about 15 and then on that 15th one, I'm going to lift up and hold it and do some circles. This is where it's going to start to burn, these are the killers. Then I'll reverse direction and then we'll hold it again and then pulse it for 8 counts. So you still have not had a chance to touch that foot to the ground. After you pulse for 8, hold it again for another second and lower it down. 3 sets of 15 on that. Let's do the other side. Crossing that leg over. Your foot placement, and then again lifting up for singles. It's a great exercise to do, you don't have any weights, you're just completely using your body weight, working with gravity. It's just a great way to focus on this problem area for as far as I know most women have always complained about this area and this is one of the best exercises you can do to work it. And then after you do your 15, remember circles. Feel it, big time. Circle the other way. And then hold, pulse it for 8, 8 counts and then go ahead and hold and then relax.
