Everybody has those annoying areas in their body that just…annoy you. My abs like most others are my nemesis and I honestly don't think I will ever have a 6 pack and that is okay. My legs used to also be a problem area until I got into powerlifting. The best thing that helped them all around was doing Beachbody routines with their different leg exercise workout programs. Before I would do squats for 5-10 sets then do the quad, calve, hamstring machines maybe finish up on the sled and that was it.

How To Get Those Thunder Thighs In Shape Using Beachbody (Real BOD Users)
So we didn't want you to only take our word for it on best Beachbody Programs for your legs so we went out and grabbed some user feedback from people actually using the programs. We curated this information from different forums and websites only changing grammar/spelling where needed.
Real BOD User Opinions
- Jamie “Barre Blend”
- Zenobia “Barre Blend”
- Valerie “Barre Blend – Have you tried barre yet? It was done wonders for me! But keep in mind depending on how much you have to lose there may be residual skin that doesn’t go away. I wear a lot of compression shorts and tight jeans!
- Kayla “80 Day Obsession” – Definitely give 80 Day Obsession a try
- Fawn “Body Beast” – Have you done a strict weight program? If not I recommend body best or hammer and chisel. do both or body beast. Weight training will help you more then strict cardio.
- Jennifer “MM100” – Morning Meltdown 100 Did wonders for me
- Nikki “Transform: 20” – Shaun ts t20 with the step was the only thing that worked on mine, and I didn't even use the step lol
- Kimberly “Shape em don't lose em” – Don’t lose your legs. Shape your legs. Embrace the thickness my friends!!!!
- Addelin “Weight programs” – I built a bunch a muscle in my legs. They've shrunk only 2″ each side, but their shape has changed tremendously.
- Loan “MM100 & Barre Blend” – Clean eating + MM100 or Barre Blend!
I’m 3.5m postpartum with #2. Did MM100 during pregnancy and on second round of Barre Blend ^^ - Allison “Transform: 20 & Body Beast” – T20 and Body Beast helped wittle my thunder thighs down!
- Myca “T25” – Girl I feel you my legs and booty are *HEAVY*. The program I saw the most results in my legs was T25. He makes you get your legs real strong REAL fast during Alpha round because Beta round requires your legs to have the muscle memory to add in a bunch of other stuff on top of it. As Shaun T says “DYNAMIC MOVEMENTS”.
- Jennifer “MM100” – Mm100, 10 rounds and mbf, mbfa are AMAZING for your legs! Not losing but building strong, toned muscle
- Rondha “LIIFT4” – I have the same problem, I am currently doing lift 4 along with 3 miles run with every workout. I went from a size 8 pants to 4 in 3 weeks. My legs are much slimmer.
- Priscilla “Insanity or T25” – Insanity or t25! I always had big thighs too! And DeF following portion fix.
- Jenny “10 Rounds” – I know most of us have an area of our bodies that we focus on and consider our problem area…but just know that you’re beautiful with your shapely legs!!! I have thunder too and when I was younger I HATED them because my legs were just so much bigger than the girl on the bus seat next to me. Somewhere along the journey of my life I fell in love with them. Even at my smallest I had to size up in jeans to make room for my thighs. As I workout now (doing 10 rounds) I love how strong they feel and how they really help power me through the workout! I did a measurement after two weeks because I could have sworn they got larger bc of how swole I feel (lovin it) and the definition I’m seeing, but I’ve lost an inch on each one! There’s no way to really target weight loss to a specific area of your body, but different types of training will give you different results. Barre is going to give you long, lean muscles, cardio torches fat and calories, lifting builds muscle and muscle burns fat with longevity. Also, when you work legs, you’re working large muscle groups, meaning you are building more muscle and burning more fat in the long run.
- Kelly “80DO” – 80DO worked best for my thighs and butt
- Trish “Insanity Max 30” –
Say “athletic thighs” instead and call it a day
On a serious note, insanity max 30 helped define my legs like crazy and slimmed them a bit - Chantelle “Insanity” – Honestly insanity thinned out my thighs but they still thick af lol my lack of thigh gap has saved my phone from the toilet on more than one occasion
- Breanna “80DO” – 80 day obsession helped me some but I've noticed more improvement with barre blend and mbf/mbfa
- Kenna “Les Mills” – You know what form of exercise really gave my legs sexy shape and definition? It was combination between step aerobics, spinning, and les mills body pump and body flow…body flow is tai chi, yoga and pilates all mixed in!!!
- Grace “Barre Blend” – I've always had really thick legs and they bothered me in the past, but after barre blend the look and feel of them changed. They didn't get any smaller but they're so much more firm and toned now that they're actually a favorite part of my body. Maybe the answer is learning to focus on them and maybe even like them eventually.
- Susan “Barre Blend” – Barre Blend! My thighs and calves are the smallest they’ve ever been in my life. And I’m not the thinest I’ve ever been either.
- Janis “Nutrition Portion Control” – No workout made my thighs smaller. It wasn't until I changed my nutrition into calorie deficit did I lose a few inches from my thighs.
- KayleeJack “Barre Blend” – Barre blend worked my thighs and legs slimming them down
- Gina “MBF/MBFA” – I'm seeing a huge change doing MBF/MBFA. I saw inches melt off my thighs in 80 Day Obsession too. I think the combination of nutrition being on point and programs that really work the legs is key.
- Carrie “Barre Blend” – I’ll say it again Barre Blend. I have allll the thighs!! Barre Blend for sure help lengthen and slim my ham hocks
