This little twist on the regular ground exercise will help tone up yourinnerthighs.Start on your rear with your knees fraudulent and your bases hip distance incremental. Place a pillow, ball, toning ring, Back Inner Ham or folded kerchief between your knees.
Push up into ground position. Keep those caricatures aligned with your pelvis.
Without raising or lowering your pelvis, slowly squeeze your pillow 20 times. Lower the pelvis and bring your knees to your casket to round and relax your reverse.
Repeat Twice for a total of 3sets. This may bear some resemblance to Jane Fonda’s drill vids from the 80s, Back Inner Ham but this exercise has been a chief of the Pilates mat force for decades. Because the knee is straight, you ’ll be working all the muscles of the inner ham! Lying on your side, outstretch your undermost leg and cross your top leg over it. Prop your head up with your hand, or rest it on your arm.
As you exhale, lift your undermost leg over, and ingurgitate as you lower it back down. Your core should remain still.
Complete 10 reps, and repeat on another side. Side dabs are a great twist on the standard poke. While working your external and inner cutters, they also work the major muscle groups of your hips and glutes! Start with your body weight, and also add dumbbells for a challenge.
Holding a pair of dumbbells, Back Inner Thigh stand with your feet and knees together.
Take a large step with your right foot to the right side and lunge toward the floor.
Make sure your right knee does not extend past your toes and keep your left leg relatively straight.
Push off through your right foot to return to the start to complete one rep. Do three sets of 10 reps on each side.

Like the standard thickset, your quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and pins get a lot of attention with plie syllables. BUT, the redundant focus on your shanks in the pile thickset will really work that inner ham area! If you want to take it further, adding the weight of a dumbbell to the exercise increases the resistance applied to those areas of your body while making your core muscles help balance the added weight you’re holding in front of your body.

When standing in the normal thickset position, rotate your bases so your toes point down from your body. This places your bases at roughly 30- degree angles to your body, which is the same bottom position as the ballet plié thickset.
Hold one end of a dumbbell with both hands. Allow the loose end of the dumbbell to face the bottom as you lower your body during the thickset. Remember to keep your reverse straight as you raise and lower your body.
Start with five squats and progress by adding more reps each time you exercise.
