This lazy girl thigh workout helps tighten and tone the thighs but it makes exercising feel effortless. It’s the perfect thigh workout for times you feel unmotivated to exercise.
I struggle with motivation to workout and I’m a trainer, fitness and health coach! (I have a brain injury that literally makes it hard for me to feel motivated.) That’s why I made my lazy girl workouts so you can get fit fast with minimal exercise and effort.
WHY THIS LAZY GIRL THIGH WORKOUT WORKS
When it comes to training the thighs, forget machines and working harder than you have to!
The key to sculpting toned, slim thighs, is using exercises that use multidirectional movements that target all of the muscles in the inner and outer thighs. When you engage all of the muscles in like that everything sucks in tight like a corset.
HINT: That’s what this workout does and why it works so well!
These thigh exercises is they can be done anywhere — no equipment or fancy gym membership required! It only takes about 20 minutes, too, which makes this thigh workout perfect for busy women that was to tone their thighs on the fly.
The best part? You don’t have to sit up or stand. You can do this entire thigh workout from bed if you want! It’s perfect to do at home, on a trip, or vacation when you’re feeling unmotivated!
GET FIT AND HEALTHY THE LAZY GIRL WAY
I love my lazy girl workouts because they use minimal effort and intensity and help you get fit and healthy and avoid feeling guilty because you ‘knew you should workout’ but skipped it.
Doing my Lazy exercise routines helps boost fitness motivation, confidence, and metabolism which ultimately makes it easier to get get in the habit of exercising regularly… even if you don’t like exercise like me.
If you don’t like exercise (or your thighs) you’re going to love this lazy girl workout.
See me explain more and demo the exercises for you in this video.
How to do this Lazy Girl Thigh Workout
- These 5 moves target and tone the inner and outer thighs.
- Do each exercise until you feel the burn, then do 5 more.
- Move from one exercise to the next without resting.
- Do 1 round of all of the exercises to complete 1 set.
- Do 4 full sets to complete your workout.
- I recommend doing this routine at least twice a week.
- As you’re doing these exercises notice the different angles we’re using. Lifting your legs in different positions ensures we’ll hit every single muscle in the inner and outer thighs
After you’re done rocking this workout, leave me a comment and let me know if you felt the burn.

- Alternate it with my other lazy girl workouts… My other 6 Lazy Girl Workouts are linked below.
- My Lazy Girl workouts were designed to be done when you’re feeling lazy, unmotivated, or just getting started and trying to get in a workout routine.

I have a spinal cord injury from a couple years ago. I walk with a walker right now. Intense PT made me lose a lot of weight really fast. But my insurance doesn’t cover PT anymore so I’m on my own with a lot of toning to do after the fast weight loss. There is a lot I can’t do yet for workouts and it’s difficult to find things I can do. This looks like it will really help. Any other workout suggestions for me?
Sincerely desperate,
Ash

I used to be a very active ICU / TRAUMA RN of 20 yrs. Unfortunately, my MS & 2 cancers &a list of other medical problems doesn’t make activity so easy anymore. Your thigh workout looks like something I can do. In fact 2 of the exercises are things I used to do. Thank you for this.
I’m glad you find it helpful xoxo

How many times a week?
I recommend doing this once and adding it with other lower and upper body workouts throughout the week.
This is amazing, I just hope it works for me!
It works, if you work it 😉 xo
Tried it and liked it… I will do this one twice a week
Awesome!!!! : )
I spent almost 4 years in a wheelchair due to neurological and autoimmune diseases and have to use braces on both feet to walk now, so doing any type of workout standing up is a no go for me. I’ve also lost a lot of weight and am actually trying to gain to get healthier, but I don’t want to gain fat so I need to work out while doing so, and this is perfect! Thank you so much for both doing and posting it!
Hi Mikki! I have a lot of ‘lazy girl’ workouts that involve laying down/sitting. They’re PERFECT for you. You can check them out here:: https://www.christinacarlyle.com/?s=lazy
Hi Christina! These are all so awesome, thank you so much! ?
General idea about how many calories are burned with this lazy girl workout? I need to make sure I’m getting enough calories and not burning too many so just a general idea would be great.
It’s impossible to tell you because I’d have to know your gender, height, weight, etc. This is why I never include calorie count and never will.
After a fall, 4 back and 1 neck surgery, pain pills, staying in bed all day with pain watching life just go by, I made the decision to get a pain pump at the age of 42. It helped tremendously with my back however the neck pain never left…. Now, I just choose to live life and manage the pain through stretching, massage, biofreeze, If it gets too intense from the muscle spasms I do take Ibuprofen/Percocet prescribed by my Pain Dr. given for breakthrough pain. I have been married for 30yrs this December. I suppose what I am concerned about is this 20 pound weight gain I had through this. You know how men can be “oh honey, you can barely tell, you are beautiful to me”. Gag!!! I’m looking in the mirror going ~ who is that cow???? Your workout looked like something that maybe this old girl could do. I mean I haven’t exercised in 10 years almost… I had almost given up on being able to experience happiness without pain… So today I decided to stretch out these old chubby bones and I tried it. Specifically I tried your one for thighs grrr yup thunder thighs that’s me lol. Here we go Bridge: 50 Lunge: 20 each side ~ Clams: 30 Deadlifts: 50 ~ Donkey Kick: 20 each side ~ Curtsy Lunge: 20 each side ~ Fire Hydrants: 20 each side ~ Inner Thigh Extentions: 50. Yes very low and I could only do them one time. But it inspired and encouraged this 51 year old, YOU inspired and encouraged this 51 year old and I thank you. I apologize for the length of this. H
I’m so so happy to hear my workout inspired and helped you xoxo
