Inner thigh exercises?

Hi peoples!
I have a question. I'm looking for exercises to strengthen/tone my inner thighs.
I use the elliptical like a fiend, I'm a beginning runner, and no matter how many squats I do, I can't seem to target my inner thighs. My outer thighs bulk up like the Hulk's in no time, but my inner thighs? Nada. Oh, how they torment me ... ;D
I don't use a gym, so I can't use fancy-pantsy equipment. I'm doing this the old fashioned way, home dawg.
Thanks for any tips or advice! It's much appreciated.

It is impossible to tone a muscle, toning is a myth.
If you want better looking legs do some barbell squats, cardio isn't going to help much here unless you are very over weight.0 -

1. Fill a back back full of pots, pans, books, babies, hammers, sand.
2. Place back pack on back
3. Learn how to perform the perfect form squats

Its a regular squat with a barbell on your back. didn't read that you don't have a gym though. There are a lot of people who half @$$ their squats, do it right and reap the benefits, do it wrong and possible get injured.0
