We talked with DailyOM trainer Sarah Rector about how to achieve toned and shapely thighs!

Dear Friends,

DailyOM trainer Sarah Rector is back with her course Toned Inner Thighs in 13 Days. I've never known anybody that gets so excited about working out thighs. I guess that is why she is a trainer, and I'm not! If you have ever taken one of Sarah's courses before, you know that she is fun, energetic, and completely lovable. Today we are talking about how to get our thighs strong, shapely, and toned.

Course Overview
Thighs are a common area of the body that people, especially women, want to tone up. What some people don't know is that the thigh muscles can be a tricky body part to workout, because lower-body exercises can sometimes lead to bulkiness and not everyone is chasing that result. However, there are fun and effective ways to strengthen and lengthen your thigh muscles, without adding any visible bulk! In this highly motivational course, led by fitness trainer Sarah Rector, you will be guided through a series of movements designed to activate and sculpt the entire thigh area. All you need is 15 minutes a day for 13 days to see and feel a big difference!

  • Receive a new lesson every day for 13 days (total of 13 lessons).
  • Have lifetime access to the course for reference whenever you want.
  • Select the amount you can afford, and get the same course as everyone.
  • If you are not 100% satisfied, you may request a refund.

Interview With Sarah Rector

Madisyn Taylor: Most people don't want to add bulk to their thighs but would like them to be toned and shapely. How does this course accomplish that?

Sarah Rector: I often hear of people's fears of "bulking up" when working on toning their thighs. That is why I wanted to create a course that helps you slim down the thigh area. The exercises I've put together in this course work the smaller muscles around the thigh area that help strengthen and tone without bulking.

You do have the option to add equipment like ankle weights or even hand weights for the standing exercises to add intensity and muscle -- if you are wanting to add muscle! I've created a foundation for you to first start waking up the thigh muscles, and you have the opportunity to enhance the course when you've completed it!

MT: How does this course slim down thighs?

SR: I've added a lot of slow, controlled moves to engage more muscles during the workout, especially the small muscles around the thigh area that you might not have previously worked out. I wanted to add a variety of cardio bursts in this course for extra calorie burners -- and a great way to energize yourself! -- but don't panic if cardio is not for you. I also give options for alternative moves during the cardio portions. In this workout, the exercises help to sculpt the thighs, and depending on your body type and workout efforts, a thigh gap can be achieved if that's your goal. We don't make a thigh gap the aim of this course, but some people desire that. As long as you are living a healthy, happy lifestyle and enjoying your fitness regime -- and I believe everything in moderation -- then you can achieve anything!

MT: Will people only see the benefits of this course on their thighs, or will they also work other parts of the body?

SR: One of the great things about this course is that it is such a thigh-focused course, but you work other parts of your body too! The core and the glutes are definitely going to get an amazing workout without even knowing it. Sneaky, I know, but low-impact workouts are so kind to the body that you can go through the exercises focusing on the main target (the thighs) and mindfully work out the go-to area while gently working out other muscles during this low-intensity journey. I make sure your body gets the attention it needs when performing the mat-based exercises, adding a lot of movement to target certain parts of the thigh but ensuring that other muscles activate as you transition into the moves.

MT: If somebody hasn't worked out for a long time and is lacking strength, does this course work for them?

SR: I always say it can't hurt to try. I'm confident that this course has something for absolutely everyone. The majority of the moves are controlled and on the slower side, and they can be easily performed without overwhelming you. Also, 15-minute workouts are a great time frame to start with if you're not working out regularly, helping to build up your strength gradually. As I previously mentioned, the workouts don't require any equipment so you're working with your own strength and resistance. This course is personal to every individual who takes it, and it's so rewarding to progress through the 13 days as you tone and strengthen your thighs!

MT: Is this course okay for people with knee issues?

SR: When it comes to knee issues, this course is low impact apart from the few bursts of cardio, which do come with alternative moves for those who can't perform any form of jumping. I mix up the moves -- from standing exercises to mat-based workouts, even exercises where you lie on your side to target your thighs. The variety of exercises, the slow transitions, and the low intensity ensure that you can move your body if you do struggle with knee issues.

MT: Once I've completed the course, what would you suggest I do going forward?

SR: To progress once you have completed this course, I highly suggest restarting it but adding equipment. Try the course using ankle weights, starting with a two-pound size and then working your way up a little. I advise not going too heavy as the moves are great for slimming down the thighs. You have to play around with weight size depending on what you want to achieve. There's also an option for working with resistance bands. Usually they are light, medium, and heavy, so start on the lower resistance and build your way up. Resistance bands won't be possible for the cardio bursts, but they will definitely intensify the workout. Also, adding hand weights or a medicine ball during the standing exercises helps to stabilize your body and target the thigh muscles even more.

MT: What do you like best about this course?

SR: What I love most is the variety. I love mixing up workouts to surprise students so that they wonder what type of move is coming next. I think it's extremely important for workouts to be interesting and not too repetitive. If a workout is boring, efforts seem to slacken, and the results aren't as rewarding. The mix of standing and mat exercises that I've chosen for this course result in flowing movements, transitioning with ease from exercise to exercise in these 15-minute daily workouts. Within the 15 minutes, I love how the workout helps you connect with your thigh muscles so that you feel different muscles work -- and even get to the point where you have the little shaking feels! Your thighs will feel amazing day by day, and I can't wait for you to see for yourself!
