This is the gold standard exercise for your inner thighs and butt, trainers say - here's how to do it properly

The article from MSN discusses the effectiveness of sumo squats as the "gold standard" exercise for targeting the inner thighs and glutes, as recommended by fitness trainers. Sumo squats, which involve a wider stance than traditional squats, engage the adductor muscles (inner thighs) more intensely due to the increased range of motion and the outward rotation of the feet. The article explains how to perform sumo squats correctly: stand with feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointed slightly outward, lower your body by bending the knees and hips while keeping the back straight, and ensure the knees track over the toes. It also highlights the importance of maintaining proper form to prevent injury and maximize benefits, such as keeping the chest up and core engaged. Additionally, variations like adding weights or pulses can increase the intensity, making sumo squats a versatile exercise for lower body strength and toning.
