    Squats, leg presses, lunges, step ups, bulgarian squats, leg curls, stiff legged dead lifts..........just to name a few.

    the aforementioned exercises...and 10-15 second all out sprints (with a rest period in between each sprint).

    Full squats. As in - your hamstrings should touch your calves.

    * squats
    * deadlifts
    * static lunges
    * step-ups

    All with heavy weights! You will strengthen your thighs but you won't necessarily make them smaller until you reduce your overall body fat percentage.

    And don't be afraid of weights. I lift heavy and I don't think I look like a man :wink:

    aaaaand GO!
