Thin thighs 101

Even supermodels fret about thigh spread.

To get thin thighs, forget about doing Donkey Kicks. The first step in eliminating thigh spread is to remove the excess fat that's covering your muscles. That takes diet and aerobic exercise. And while you're reducing fat, you should work the gym machines for each set of upper leg muscles:

• The adduction/abductor machine, to tone your inner and outer thighs
• The hamstring machine, to harden the backs of the thighs
• The quadriceps machine, to strengthen the fronts.

You can also do these exercises at home, without expensive gym fees or machines.

Note: Avoid overdoing the stair-climber. You want the lean, long legs of a dancer, not the bulked-up ham hocks of a firefighter.
