Thigh Workout?

What's a good exercise to get your thighs in shape? Obviously I know walking, but what else is there that could help too. I find the fat in my thighs the most problematic.

    Squats and deadlifts.

    Squats and lunges are both good for increasing muscle tone around the thighs and legs, and I've found that taking up bicycling also did my legs a lot of good (not to mention excellent cardio). As for getting rid of fat there specifically, you really can't spot-reduce that way. You've got to get leaner and slim down overall to see that kind of change.

    As stated above: squats, deadlift, leg extension.
    Also keep in mind that you shouldn't have a muscle imbalance, meaning don't forget to work your hamstrings too!
    Good luck!
