Love this ad from Nike .
It's inevitable when I workout my already big legs get bigger. I am not complaining about the big, it's genetic and God given muscle should never be complained about. Some days when my jeans fit tighter, though, the bigger can be frustrating. It's then when I try to remind myself, these are the legs that I am expecting to carry my weight as I run mile after mile. I need these legs to be big and strong and healthy.
So I embrace the bigger thighs and the good health that comes along with them. Run on thunder thighs, run on.
“I HAVE THUNDER THIGHS. And that’s a compliment because they are strong and toned and muscular and though they are unwelcome in the petite section, they are cheered on in marathons. Fifty years from now I’ll bounce a grandchild on my thunder things and then I’ll go out for a run.
JUST DO IT.”

Thanks for the reminder that when my smaller jeans are tight, it means that my thighs are getting stronger.
Back in the day when I was fit, I too had big muscular thunder thighs. Now my thighs are big but don't "thunder" so much as swish and roll. You should be so proud to have the body you work so hard to have.
I LOVE, LOVE your attitude. Down with silly women who emaciate themselves. Up with muscle. Up with health. Up with gratitude for your/our bodies.
What's my excuse for my squishy thunder thighs??? Oh ya, the whole pan of brownies I just ate!!! Wish I had your drive!!!! I admire YOU!! and your really pretty Kitchen Aid!!
PS: How funny. I just went to write the word verification down below and it is: T U N D E R!!! HAHAHAH
When I was in highschool my dad was trying to get me into mountain biking and one of his selling points was "you could have thunder thighs!" Needless to say I did not get into mountain biking but looking back I am sure my dad meant thunder thighs in the nike sense of the word.
