Single Leg Chair Squats
When you want to up the ante on squats try chair squats to really target your inner thigh muscles. Sit in a chair and extend one leg to the floor using your heel only for support and balance. Use your other leg to lift your body out of the chair and lower back down to a sitting position. As you build strength you can lift your heel from the floor and use only the other leg for the squat.
Once you’ve learned the squat position using the chair and have built strength and balance, you can remove the chair and do single leg squats with or without your heel on the floor. These are ideal exercises for toning the inner thigh muscles as well as the outer thigh and butt muscles.
