5 Most Effective Toning Inner Thigh Exercises

[@LSimon321]

That last exercise informed me that i need to work more on my core strength. You make it look so easy. I can barely lift myself and certainly not as long as you do.

At 71, I truly appreciate the stretches and toning/strength-building exercises you are demonstrating. Your genuine enthusiasm helps support our efforts to keep ourselves conscious of the importance of continuing to work on ourselves. I have some early peripheral neuropathy happening in my left foot. Are there exercises to build strength in weak areas caused by neuropathy? I know that diabetes can be a source of neuropathy, and thank goodness, that is not an ailment that I have. Any pointers would be much appreciated.

[@drkristieennis]

Thanks so much! It’s great to hear you are working on your stretching and strengthening! I generally work on general strength and balance, as well as add cardio in.

[@popeyesailorman911]

Thanks Dr Kristie!!! i find exercise #2.Plie + #5 Copenhagen Plant extremely helpful for my knee strengthening(from an Old injury), plus the Other 2 Videos i commented on earlier in the week... #1 sorta reminded me of Suzanne Somer's thigh master :) I was doing incline benching couple weeks ago and i missed the Safety bar on the weight rack when putting back the weights over my head and since it was heavy weights my wrists bent awkwardly and popped out my Scaphoid bone. in the 1st few days it was excruciating pain when i try to push off using my right hand, then the pain disappeared just like many human nature injuries.... But i discovered my Scaphoid bone popped out, so once i realize it's okay to push the bone back in place and massage it religiously everyday since, it's a lil tender in that area but at least the bone isn't sticking out anymore... i didn't use any magical oil to rub it in because i don't want to have my thumb slipping over my wrist, just want a FIRM Hold on the Scaphoid bone and squeezed it in place and massage it to death, repeat the process several times a day.... Wondering if you've any Scaphoid injury therapies/techniques/advices.... Thank You in Advance...

[@drkristieennis]

Oh boy! That must have been painful 😥 Unfortunately, the scaphoid isn’t something I work with that often so I don’t have any great suggestions.

[@popeyesailorman911]

@@drkristieennis indeed excruciating pain when applying weight to push off to get off bed. After 5 days of intense massage and popped the scaphoid back in place, it's a lot better now in my 2nd week... The redness swelling is reduce, no pain, will start lifting weights again Tomorrow... :D The FUN part is i Fixed it ALL by myself without Chiropractors or Surgery. Gotta admit, it was pretty bad in the beginning, the Scaphoid bone completely popped out of it's location, and it was 3/4" inches sticking out of my wrist.

Hello doc ! I got an MRI about two months ago and it showed bulging disc at L5 S1and DDD, with early osteophyte at C5-6. My lower leg, knee under went numb ...after doing 4 sets of 100 inner thigh with pilates ring ... I haven’t been able to work out for 2.5 months now and just doing some exercises for bulging disc from KZbin ... it has improved, but am wondering if it is advisable for me to do these exercises for inner thighs with my condition? I have very flabby and loose inner thighs specially after not being able to work out after knee and knee below pain and numbness bud to bulging disc.... Any other recommendations? Thank you so much for your helpful videos , specially the ab exercises for back pain 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@TaylorQuince19493]

Is this knee friendly? Thanks!

[@Deadbuck73]

Ok... question: when you were doing the plie move... I could see what I’m trying to understand is either bone or tendon... I can’t open up my left side to do a butterfly when seated... is it a bone or tendon that I feel and how do I get it to improve for mobility? 2nd Question: did you ever get ahold of anyone from a few weeks back when you asked for a specialist for a client/patient?

[@drkristieennis]

Usually it is muscle/tendon that limits that, but it is occasionally the hip joint. Try doing some soft tissue work to both the hip flexors and groin muscles. Also, try sitting on a thick pillow or yoga block with that stretch and it will help open the hips. Unfortunately, nothing has worked out for that patient yet. I think she truly needs a sciatic nerve transplant as well as other bone graft surgeries.

Sorry but I hate the word 'toning'. Luckily some of the fitness industry seems to be moving away from using it. It is misleading and people think there's some magic process that happens, rather than two separate body composition processes of building muscle and losing fat (by creating a calorie deficit through diet/exercise). I would rather see people properly educated about this as there's so much confusing and mis information out there which isn't helpful for people who really need proper advice! I think it's irresponsible to use it.

[@drkristieennis]

You are absolutely right on what needs to be done with regards to diet and exercise. However, if you’ve never worked on strengthening, I stop thinking toning ( more muscle definition) is an appropriate word, especially when reducing overall fat.
