Here you have an outer thigh workout that will help you feel confident and good about yourself.
A lot of women tend to naturally store fat in their hips and thigh. So it might be a bit harder to target those areas.
This workout will help you slim your outer thighs but as I always like to remind you, you cannot spot reduce fat. You need to do a combination of exercises (including cardio) and eat a healthy diet to get the best results!
You can do this workout on its own, or as a little circuit after your workout or cardio session.
I use a gliding disc for this workout, but you can use a small towel if you don’t have one (like I use in the video). And if you want to add an extra challenge, you can use ankle weights for this workout. I’ll put the link for them below.
You can do it at home at the gym, alone or with a friend. Having a workout buddy can be very motivational and beneficial for you as you know from one of my recent blog posts.
Try out my outer thigh workout and let me know if you like it! :)
Enjoy!
HOW TO COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT
- Complete each exercise for 30-45 seconds without any rest. Complete 2-3 rounds.
- I did the standing exercises for 45 seconds and the lying down ones for 30 seconds cuz they burn!
- You can do it as a stand-alone workout, or add it to your cardio/circuit for a little extra. I did this plus an ab circuit.
- Don’t forget to do every workout on both sides :)

So if you like this style of training that gives you a toned look without making you bulky, my program might be perfect for you :)

Hi, Thank you so much for the exercises. You appear to be doing the leg circles anti clockwise. Can you do clockwise for more effective too or is anti clockwise best to target this area? Also, will they add size to my buttocks, as don’t really want that.
Many thanks
Rosie
Hi lovely! Doing it in a counterclockwise direction would be more effective so we recommend that you do it that way. Also, these exercises will help tone your muscles but they won’t necessarily make your butt bigger so don’t worry. :) If you need more fitness tips, feel free to reach out to us at info@rachaelattard.com :)
Love what you’re doing! I will be working on it definitely.
Hi lovely,
Glad that you loved Rachael’s workout! We wish you all the best in your fitness journey! xx
Love,

Hi Rachael, your workout pages aren’t working and it won’t let me go back towards older workouts!
Hi lovely,
They do work for me. Could you try updating or using a different browser and opening the link in an incognito window?
Let me know if that helps! :) xx

Hi rachael,
I don’t know how to create my own workout plan. My goals are increasing bust size, losing thighs, arms fat, toned belly and also gain some flexibility skills. It seems very hard to me to create a workout plan effectively. Please give me some advice.
Thanks

Hi Rachael,
I’ve been going to the gym for years and don’t have the body I want so I’m going to try your program but before I sign up I’m curious to know should I do the program 6 days a week for 8 weeks then introduce pilates and light resistance training or do them from the start … It’s finding the time for it all will be challenging?
Thanks
