The most worrying thing? This obsession often affects younger people. Some teenage girls set this goal as a goal… at the cost of profound unhappiness. Extreme diets, intensive workouts, loss of self-confidence: this is what this aesthetic quest sometimes hides. But there is no single « ideal » body type. And certainly not the one dictated by filters or digital trends.
What you can do to feel good
So, what can we do about this pressure? The answer can be summed up in one word: realignment. Rather than aiming for an unattainable ideal, why not focus on goals that feel good? Being stronger, fitter, more flexible… these are all positive aspirations. And above all, learn to love your body as it is. Not as we’re told it should be.
Because no, there’s no miracle or healthy way to change the distance between your thighs. Targeted exercises won’t change your bone structure, and no routine can guarantee you a « thigh gap. » However, cultivating a more caring, realistic, and confident self-image is within your reach.
Your body is unique: and that’s precisely what makes it precious.
