No!

Go to http://www.cbass.com/Furey.htm , and look at Hindu Squats...do these, and your legs will get HUGE. I've only been doin 'em for a week, and my legs have gotten a lot bigger.

Matt Furey is the guys name who does these, you can check some videos out at http://www.mattfureyinnercircle.com , or his website at http://www.mattfurey.com

Good luck!

Squats, and I do these man. I tke a bar put 35 lbs on it, then put the Bar across my Traps while standing in front of a Box or some thing a little bit off the ground not too high.

THen I take my right leg step up onto the box and the bring Left knee to my chest. Then switch, 3 sets of 15 should get you some burn, and a lil power, I'm 26 and I'm still out ther playing football snatchn flags and putting people on thier butts, it's a blast

How To Tone Your Thighs
Many people, mostly women tend to put on excess weight on the thighs and buttocks. Thighs always lose weight very slowly, no matter how much you diet. The weight loss that occurs due to dieting can be due to decrease of fat from other places. Our genes are the culprits that can decide the area where most of the fat cells lie and thighs are the main area where these cells are centered. Though the number of fat cells in your body will not change, you can reduce the size of your inner thighs. Reducing the quantity of fat within the cells is the key to slimmer and thinner thighs.

You can develop lean thighs in two ways: reduce overall fat from your body, which will ultimately lead to removal of fat from thighs or tone and firm the thighs using the thigh exercises. When you tone the thighs using exercises, your metabolism goes up. Higher metabolism results in more calories being burned. This leads to reduction of fat deposits in thighs. When you combine aerobics with the thigh exercise, you will achieve results quickly.

Squats are excellent for toning the thighs. There is a notion that squats can lead to big increase in size. But you are in control. If you do not want to go for big thighs, use moderate weights. This will tone the thighs very fast. But there is a slight increase in the size of the muscle when it is toned. To retain its growth, you need to increase the intensity of the exercise. But if you choose not to, exercising with the same intensity will not lead to bigger thighs. Squats make it very easy for you to control the thigh size. Do squats thrice a week on alternate days. Start lightly with just your body weight for 2-3 sets, with each set consisting of 10 reps. Over a period of 3-4 weeks slowly increase the intensity.Walking, rowing or any exercise where you have to use thighs and other bigger muscles simultaneously is the excellent exercise to reduce fat from the thighs. When you use thighs and other bigger muscles your metabolic rate goes up. This cause more calories to be burnt. Perform these exercises slowly for around 20 minutes. You can do squats before aerobics on the same day or on different day from aerobic exercises.
