The lower part of your thigh doesn’t grow as much from weight training as the upper and middle parts—even if you train hard and use fancy techniques.

The lower part of the thigh doesn't get noticeably bigger after 8 weeks of any of these training styles, even if the upper and middle parts do—meaning muscles don't grow evenly everywhere.

You don’t need to train every day—just twice a week for two months can make your upper and middle thighs bigger, as long as you do enough total work.

If you're already someone who lifts weights, doing either static holds with your muscles stretched out or full-range weight exercises won't make the outer part of your thigh noticeably bigger in just six weeks.

After 8 weeks of any kind of weight training, the lower part of the thigh doesn’t get noticeably thicker—even though the upper and middle parts do.

Measuring thigh muscle thickness with ultrasound near the top and middle of the thigh is a good way to see if your muscles are growing from training—but measuring near the knee might not show it.
