Do you mean flab? or fat? If you mean fat, then you have to reduce your body fat overall by diet and exercise. If you mean flab, here's one good exercise: Squats but with legs wide. i.e. imagine you're sitting on a really wide horse. Put all your weight on your heels. Point toes outward. Keep knees over ankle. Keep upper body as straight as possible. Push hip forward. Then squat down. Do lots of those. That targets the inner thighs. The closer you bring your legs together, the more you'll work the front muscles of your legs.
