Sculpting exercises that are high repetition and low stress work your legs, hips, and glutes without the resistance of your whole body. Leg lifts and bicycle maneuvers are good examples. Yoga and pilates are two more ways to lengthen and define your muscles without bulking up. Body bars are awesome for sculpting legs with just the right amount of weight. For cardio, shift from high intensity exercise to low-resistance, medium-intensity cardio. Fast walking, steady cycling, and elliptical machines at the gym are fair ways to stay in shape without building muscle bulk.
Thigh exercises will not burn calories like cardio or interval training, but it will give them a lean appearance. Wall squats and plie squats are a couple of the best because they work all of your major leg muscles. A wall squat is an isometric exercise, where your body remains stationary throughout the exercise. Place your back against the wall and bend your knees to a 45-degree angle. Hold for 30 seconds, and then rest. Repeat for four sets of 10 reps. Do a plie squat by planting your feet wider than shoulder-width and placing your hands on your hips. Bend your knees and lower your buttocks, until your thighs are parallel to the floor, then push up to the starting position. Do four sets of 10 reps.
