It's great to incorporate variety into any exercise routine so you can avoid the dreaded plateaus that often come with boring routines or burnout. Sometimes it's a better idea not to over-complicate your workout and instead just do what gets the job done, with minimal forethought and/or equipment. Most thigh exercises will also work your torso, including the core and should be a part of every simplified routine. Wall Squats Wall squats are a very simple exercise that can be accomplished by anyone, with any level of physical fitness. Find a wall and start squatting. The beauty of this movement is you don't even have to have good balance to perform them, like you would with regular squats. A wall squat is a thigh exercise that works the entire leg, buttock and core. Lunges Lunges can be done anywhere and in several different variations. Front lunges work the hamstrings, glutes and frontal quadriceps. Side lunges work the inner and outer thigh muscles, while also helping to tone your glutes. Reverse lunges work your entire thigh and glutes. As with any thigh exercises; your core is worked very effectively with all forms of lunges. Flexing While this may seem like something that a professional bodybuilder, or macho teenager might do: Flexing your thighs, or any other part of your body is a great way to build up your mind/muscle connection, increase blood flow and tone your muscles. The beauty of incorporating flexing into our routine, is that they can be done almost anywhere. Flexing your thigh and glutes can be done virtually undetected and will give your metabolism a well-deserved boost all throughout the day. Not to mention that the extra blood flow you'll get from flexing at different points will increase oxygen flow to your extremities and help your body heal from your workouts.
