De-Flab Your Thighs. The lower body is a trouble spot for most women. Why? Our bodies are living in the past. Our hormones send excess fat straight to the lower body, which was helpful thousands of years ago—when women needed this fat storage to survive droughts, famines, and long winters—but isn't exactly needed today. The good news: You can fight back with the right thigh-toning exercises. First, a little anatomy. The inner thigh area is a particularly frustrating spot because unless you play sports like basketball or tennis, which involve lots of side-to-side motion, these muscles get very little use and lose their tone. Do two sets of 10 to 12 reps on each leg (unless otherwise indicated), two or three times a week. 1.

(b) Exhale as you lift and extend your right leg. Published November 2011, Prevention. BEST WORKOUT FOR AN ATHLETIC BODY TYPE. The shape: Think Hayden Panettiere or Jessica Biel—broad across the back and shoulders, narrower through the hips.

Athletic builds are often short-waisted (and maybe a little thick-waisted), tend to have square silhouettes, and will have a lower ratio of fat to muscle than curvy or pear-shaped body types. Swimsuits can be tough to find for athletic builds, because what fits the bottom half will often be too small to stretch over the top. The Rx: Athletic women don’t generally need too much toning. But a bikini begs for a little balance, as well as a little nip through the waist for a sexy silhouette.
